The second degree eluding charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in state prison. The fact that there is such a high bail with no 10% shows you the seriousness of the crime. Your friend NEEDS a lawyer due to the seriousness of the charges. A lawyer can also try to get his bail reduced so he can get out of jail awaiting his trial. I am an attorney who has handled many cases similar to yours in various courts throughout New Jersey in the past. Please contact me to discuss your case in more detail. I never charge for simply talking to a person about their case. Thank you.

He is looking at prison time, 5 to 10 years. He needs an attorney and a good one. I suggest everyone forget about bail at the moment. The money is better spent on an attorney.
Call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss.
Re: What would be the procedure for a case like this?
Hot pursuit of the police of persons who will not stop their cars has resulted in a number of deaths involving innocent people. Second degree eluding the police means that the person fleeing the police has driven his vehicle in a manner likely to place the lives of others, including the pursuing police in danger. A conviction for second degree
eluding requires a prison sentence, even for a first offender.
You might consider that having a clean
record means very little when one is
charged with rape or murder.
Call me if you like.
