What is a low-level felony?
When doing your grocery shopping, the child safety seat atop of the shopping cart may look convenient when not occupied by a child, may appear to be a convenient place to put one’s purse or handbag. However, we see these purses and handbags are left open, unzipped, unsecured….exposing the owner’s wallet, keys, cell phone and more (money!) The combination of easy access and distracted shoppers creates the perfect storm for thieves. You walk over to pick up a loaf of bread to see if it is seven grain and start picking up multiple loafs. You get even more distracted when you ask a store clerk where you can find other types of bread that match the diet you happen to be on, during which the crime has been committed. Your purse, wallet and/or cellphone has been taken. Ideally, bags/purses should be worn using shoulder or cross-body straps. Whether or not you are carrying your bag or storing it in a shopping cart, please consider keeping it closed…zipped.. buttoned, etc. Open purses are a bright and shiny invitation for thieves. Have a friend or family watch your purse or put it on your shoulder (the shoulder closest to where your frame of vision is.)
“IF A WOMAN GETS ANGRY FOR ANY REASON, SHE CAN SIMPLY ACCUSE A MAN AND MEN ARE JUST ASSUMED GUILTY IN OUR SOCIETY.” DR. HELEN SMITH AUTHOR OF MEN ON STRIKE
I am seeing more and more cases of failing to register under “CSAR” California Sex and Arson Registration. What this means, is if you have been convicted of a sex offense or an arson offense, there is a LIFETIME REQUIREMENT that you report to the Sheriff or LAPD EVERY YEAR within five days of your birthday that your address is current. There is a section of 290.013 that has been codified that defines “domicile”. A “domicile” can be any place that you stay on a regular basis. For example your girlfriend’s house! You must keep your address updated even if you are transient. Then it is every 30 days, not once a year within 5 days of your birthday. You could be facing 4 years in state prison, plus priors. For more case law information on this or to privately discuss your matter contact the Law Offices of Victoria Clemans.
The Law Offices of Victoria Clemans now has access to information such as immigration consequences, California driver’s license, Section 8 housing eligibility, California disability, California unemployment, and more. For example, say you’re charged with a 245 in a vehicle. Not only is it a moving violation in addition to the 245, but you lose your California driver’s license FOR LIFE. This is just one example of the many areas that we can tap into to keep you informed of what pleading to a charge really means, and why you shouldn’t do that. We work hard to make sure that you don’t lose rights and privileges or have immigration consequences. You no longer have to call an immigration lawyer, we have those answers.
