Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey

Re: Robbery

Well it sounds like he already has charges pressed against him. Your question is will he be convicted if he doesn't show up. In a perfect world, no, because his testimony should not be introduced. However, every now and then the State gets a Judge that will allow it in anyway. Furthermore, what makes you think he won't show up? You would be amazed at who shows up for trial. The State is VERY persuasive.

He is probably facing 5 to 10 years unless he is charged with armed robbery, in which case he is looking at 5 to 10. Unless he has a record, I doubt he'll get the max.

For a BS case like this, I suggest he get an attorney right away. A good attorney may be able to stop this right here so it goes no further. Give me a call at 732/247/3340 and we can discuss the case in more detail. My initial consultations are always free.

Re: Robbery

It is up to the police and the prosecutor to decide if they are going to press charges. If the alleged victim does not show up to court or give a statement to the police then it will be harder for the case to be proven against your boyfriend, but not necessarily impossible. Robbery is a serious charge that could potentially result in heavy fines and jail time. I would certainly suggest that you meet with a lawyer in person to discuss this case in more detail. I am an attorney who has handled many cases similar to yours in various courts in New Jersey in the past. Please contact me at your convenience to talk about this case. I never charge for simply talking to people. Thank you.

Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-
