Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Re: Solicitation for prostitution 647 b

If you do not fight it, a subsequent offense will be a felony:In any accusatory pleading charging a violation of

subdivision (b) of Section 647, if the defendant has been previously

convicted one or more times of a violation of that subdivision or of

any other offense listed in subdivision (d) of Section 1202.1, and in

connection with one or more of those convictions a blood test was

administered pursuant to Section 1202.1 or 1202.6 with positive test

results, of which the defendant was informed, the previous conviction

and positive blood test results, of which the defendant was

informed, shall be charged in the accusatory pleading. If the

previous conviction and informed test results are found to be true by

the trier of fact or are admitted by the defendant, the defendant is

guilty of a felony.

Re: Solicitation for prostitution 647 b

I reviewed Barry's recommendation, and he is correct. Without the prostitute's cooperation this is going to be a very difficult case for the D. A. to prosecute. I would expect the D. A. to make you a very good offer to get you to take a plea. However, you need to seriously think about defending the case. It is my opinion that this is one of those cases in which the D. A. will make you a better and better offer up to, and including the date of trial. But a lot of court appearances and a trial cost you money. However, it is possible that you'll appear at trial and the matter will be dropped. Can't count on that however so you must be prepared to go to trial.

And call Barry if you need any more advice.
