Re: legal help

Before you start thinking about "pleaing" to any of these various charges, you would be very well advised to either hire your own competent criminal defense counsel to represent you in these matters or, in the event that you cannot afford this expense, then you should apply to the court to appoint such counsel to represent you.

ASAP will not be too soon for you to arrange for such counsel.
