Legal Question in Criminal Law in California
Juvenile Strikes
My husband is fighting a 3 strike case. He is asking his attorney to plead his prior strikes/strike prior strikes. My husband got 2 juvenile strikes in i believe 2002 maybe 2004. I was told that in juvenile court you do not have the right to trial by jury so he received a trial by judge. I was also informed that apprendi vs. new jersey might be of help because it was before his juvenile strikes...and it is retroactive. I would like more info on how this case can help my husband plead his juvenile strikes in court (while in court on a 3 strike case.) Also i need to know if these cases might help him? ...people vs. burgos..people vs benson and people vs sanchez. One of these cases is something about if the incidents all happened at the same time you cannot recieve more than one strike...is that correct?
THANK YOU.

Re: Juvenile Strikes
These are questions you should be asking your husband's attorney. Any answer you receive on the internet would be general and of little assistance to him.
