Re: right to see acusers
ABSOLUTELY. The U.S. Constitution gives you the rights, (no State law can take away these rights), to confront and cross-examine the witnesses against you in a criminal case. If you are charged with a crime, and you do not waive your rights by a plea bargain or failure to object, then you have the right to demand a trial and no evidence should be admitted that denies your right to confront and cross-examine the witnesses against you. You also have the right to subpoena witnesses for your defense. If you need an attorney to help you take a criminal case to trial, call me at 210-655-9090 and let me give you a quote.
