Learning about gun safety is important when it comes to defending yourself from shooters like the one who killed a church pastor in Winona on Sunday.

Learning what comes after shooting a gun is just one of the things instructors from Hold the Line teach. They also teach how to hold, and load, a gun, and what kind of stance to use when shooting.

If you have been charged with a crime, you have the right to a “speedy public trial by an impartial jury.” You also have the right to know “the nature and cause of the accusations” and to have a written copy of the charges. At no time can you be compelled by the prosecution to present self-incriminating evidence, nor can they confront you with the witnesses they have against you. You also have the right to gather witnesses who will testify in your favor and to legal counsel who can represent you in an “adversarial judicial proceeding.” This includes the right to engage in private consultations with your lawyer in advance of the proceeding, so you can make the necessary preparations.

Your Right to Appointed Legal Counsel

If you’re not able to afford an attorney, you can have one appointed for you. And this person will be able to represent you in any judicial proceeding. If you have been appointed legal counsel and if the judicial process has already been started, the court or authorized designee will appoint counsel for you in the county where you have been arrested as soon as possible. But it can’t be later than:

• The end of the third working day after the court receives your request for the appointment of legal counsel if you were arrested in a county with a population of less than 250,000.
• The end of the first working day after the court receives your request for the appointment of legal counsel if you were arrested in a county with a population of 250,000 or more.

If you were arrested under a warrant that was issued in a county other than where the arrest was made and you’re entitled to appointed legal counsel, it will be processed in the county that issued the warrant.

Your Rights with Regard to Signed Pleadings

Any plea, motion, or paperwork that has been filed on your behalf by your attorney must have the person’s name and state, as well as his or her address. If you’re not being represented by an attorney, you will need to sign any plea, motion, or document that must be filed for or on your behalf. The signature from you or your attorney certifies that you have read the document and that, after “reasonable inquiry,” you believe that any of the following applies:

• The information is groundless and has been brought against you in bad faith.
• The information is groundless and has been brought against you due to harassment, unnecessary delay, or some other improper purpose.

If you or your attorney hasn’t signed any of the necessary documents, the court will strike it unless they’re signed immediately after the omission has been called to you or your attorney’s attention. If you or your attorney has filed a fictitious pleading for some improper purpose or makes a statement in a plea that you or your attorney knows is groundless and false (whether it’s for delaying the trial or for the purpose of harassment), you could be found guilty of contempt.

Your Right to a Trial by Jury

According to the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, you have the right to a trial by jury. But if you have been charged with any offense “other than a capital felony case in which the state notifies the court” and the prosecution is seeking the death penalty, you have the right to waive a trial by jury. You’re required to submit the request in writing in an open court after they and the prosecuting attorney have given approval, which must be done in writing. The document must also be signed by their attorney and filed in the court papers before you can enter your plea.

In a capital felony case where the prosecuting attorney is not seeking the death penalty, you can waive your right to a trial by jury but only if they consent to it in writing and in open court. You can also agree to waive a jury trial regardless of whether you’re being represented by an attorney when you have requested it. But before you can agree to waive the jury, the court is required to appoint an attorney to represent you.

Other Rights Under the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure

Here are some other rights listed under the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure:

• Searches and Seizures — No search warrant can be issued without describing them as near as they can and without “probable cause” supported by an “oath of affirmation.”
• Right to Bail — Every prisoner is bailable unless it’s for a capital offense in which the proof is evident.
• Habeus Corpus — Your right to go before the court can never suspended.
• Cruelty Forbidden — No excessive bail or fines can be imposed, nor can any cruel or unusual punishment be inflicted.
• Double Jeopardy — At no time can you be charged twice for the same offense, nor can you be put on trial again once a verdict has been reached.
• Acquittal A Bar — You’re exempted from a second trial or prosecution for the same offense if you have been acquitted.

If you have any questions about your rights in Texas criminal procedures, be sure to get in touch with Gale Law Group.

SAN ANTONIO – There is a new lawsuit against the Bexar County Sheriff alleging defamation, slander and violations of due process.

The claims are coming from a couple arrested and accused of kidnapping a 3-year-old girl last year.

If you have been convicted of a crime, you may have to serve time in prison and pay a series of fines. But, after you have served your prison sentence, you will most likely have to go through a probation program before it’s considered “fully served.” To go through this process, you will have to follow a strict set of rules and meet with your probation on a regular basis. There are some things you can do to make this process easier, so you can get off of parole without being sent to prison for a probation violation.

When you’re on probation, you have been given a chance to stay in society instead of being incarcerated, but you will be under the supervision of the court. During this period, you will have to follow the terms and conditions that have been set by your probation officer, which will depend on the type of crime you committed and the county in which you were convicted. If you fail to meet these conditions, you run the risk of being incarcerated (most likely for a long period of time).

How You Can Stay in Compliance with the Terms of Your Probation in Texas

Here are some things you can do to make sure you stay in compliance with the terms of your Texas probation:

• Make sure you understand it completely — If you have been flagged for a probation violation and you have to talk to a probation officer or judge, claiming that you didn’t realize you were doing so isn’t going to get you off the hook. It’s your responsibility to understand and follow all the terms that have been set by the court, so make sure you ask your probation officer to clarify anything you don’t understand.
• Develop a good relationship with your probation officer — Your probation officer has a lot of power. And if you make a mistake or violate the terms of your probation in Texas, he or she can recommend that it be revoked. Make sure you get on the good side of your probation officer by always being on time (or even early) for your scheduled meetings and by being respectful at all times.
• Show up for all your appointments — Know when and where you need to be for your appointments, and make sure you’re there every time. It takes precedence over everything else in your life. But if something does come up, notify your probation officer as soon as possible. It doesn’t mean you’re in the clear for missing a meeting, but letting people know why after the fact can get you in trouble.
• Keep records — If part of your probation includes paying child support or going to a certain number of alcohol education classes, make sure you keep accurate records of any payments you made or classes you attended because it will go much further than your word when it comes to proving your case.
• Stay out of trouble — If you aren’t allowed to drink alcohol, don’t go to a bar or hang out at a party that serves it. Don’t put yourself in a position where you can unintentionally break the terms of your Texas probation with the hope that you can get away with it. The short-term benefits of breaking the rules aren’t worth the long-term consequences (which can lead to more jail time). So, make sure you stay out of trouble while you’re on probation.
• Pay your fees — Most people who are put on probation in Texas are required to pay certain fees, fines, and other expenses. This might include court costs, probation fees, costs related to drug testing, and restitution payments to the victim. Make sure you pay them in full and on time. But if you’re not able to pay, at least try to pay a little toward them as often as you can. Late or unpaid fines can lead to a revocation, which can get you arrested and sent to jail.
• Get a job — The conditions of your probation will most likely require you to get and keep some type of steady employment. Your probation officer wants to know you’re working and are being a productive member of society, and some will want to see a pay stub or some other proof of employment.

If you have any questions about how probation works in the State of Texas, be sure to speak to someone at Gale Law Group. We’re a criminal defense lawyer in Corpus Christi with years of combined experience in dealing with these types of cases, and we would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

During the holiday season, more people will be out eating, drinking, and being merry. So, the odds of getting arrested for a DWI are higher. Alcohol-related driving fatalities are more common from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, which is one of the most disturbing statistics (especially when it’s during a time that’s supposed to be cheerful). You can keep from becoming one of these DWI-related statistics if you take certain steps to avoid any drunk-driving consequences over the holidays.

What You Can Do to Avoid a DWI in Texas During the Holidays

Here are some things you can do to avoid a DWI in Texas during the holiday season:

• Don’t drink and drive — The easiest and best way to keep from getting a Texas DWI is not to drink if you plan to drive or can’t find a designated driver. Driving drunk doesn’t just affect you. It’s dangerous for everyone else who shares the road.
• Make sure you’re under the legal limit — Like every other state, Texas has a legal blood alcohol content (BAC) level under which you’re permitted to drive. And one way to avoid getting a DWI in Texas is to keep it under control. One way to keep your BAC down is to eat while you drink, because food will help your body to digest the alcohol.  You can calculate your BAC based on your weight, but you need to be careful about how many drinks you have per hour.
• Drive safely — Safety should always come first when you’re driving. But when you’re out drinking, you need pay close attention to all traffic laws. Now isn’t the time to beat the yellow light or roll through that stop sign. Your attention should be on the road, so texting and chatting on your phone or messing with the radio isn’t a good idea.
• Behave yourself — If you get pulled over by a police officer, be polite and cooperative while complying with his or her requests. This can include retrieving your driver’s license and agreeing to sobriety tests.
• Stay Sober — You can’t get arrested for a DWI in Texas if you don’t drink at all. You can also serve as a “designated driver” to anyone who plans to drink at that time.
• Find someone reliable to be your “designated driver” — If you plan to drink at a certain event, you can ask someone to be your designated driver. Just make sure it’s someone you know will stay sober even when he or she is faced with peer pressure.
• Use a rideshare service to request a ride — If you’re not able to find a designated driver, you can always use a rideshare service to get home safely. But there’s one thing you should keep in mind. When there’s a great deal of demand for rides, surge prices will apply. So, you should expect to pay the highest fares between midnight and 3:00am.
• Stay at a friend’s place or book a hotel — If you live far from the event and you have a friend who lives close to the venue, you can ask him or her to spend the night so you don’t have to drive back home. If you don’t know anyone who lives close to the event, you can book a room at the closest hotel or motel.
• Host a holiday party — You can avoid leaving your home in the first place by hosting an event in your own home. Just make sure you’re open to someone spending the night or to make driving arrangements for your guests.
• Don’t rely on the “one drink an hour” rule — Everyone gets a different reaction to alcohol, so the rule of having one drink every hour won’t work for everyone. Some people can absorb and eliminate the alcohol from a single drink in just one hour, but there have been many cases where someone followed this rule and still got arrested for a Texas DWI.
• Be aware of your own limit — When it comes to alcohol, everyone is different. What one person can tolerate may be too much for someone else. Make sure you know your limit, because it will keep you from having more than you can handle.

If you have been charged with a DWI in Texas and need to hire one of the best criminal lawyers in Corpus Christi, TX, be sure to get in touch with Gale Law Group. We would be happy to speak wit you about your case!

The laws for marijuana use have changed at a rapid pace in the United States, especially in recent years. This has left people confused about what is and isn’t legal in different parts of the country. The attitudes toward marijuana use has changed quite a bit throughout many parts of the country, but Texas has gone its own way. Many states have allowed for the medical use of marijuana, has decriminalized petty offenses, and has even legalized recreational use. Texas, on the other hand, continues to impose severe penalties for marijuana use, but it did pass a very restrictive medical cannabis law that allows for the limited use of low-THC, high-CBD cannabis oil.

In the State of Texas, possessing even a small amount of marijuana can result in jail time. Anything less than two ounces can lead to jail time of up to 180 days and a fine of up to $2,000. But if you’re caught carrying concentrates (such as hash oil), you’ll be charged with a felony and can lead to prison time of up to two years. While there have been some more progressive proposals with regard to marijuana legislation, only one bill has allowed for the limited use of low-THC cannabis products. And Texas lawmakers have legalized the commercial production of hemp.

Recreational Marijuana Laws in the State of Texas

It’s a crime in the State of Texas to possess marijuana for recreational use. If you’re caught with up to four ounces of pot, you’ll be charged with a misdemeanor. This could lead to a fine of up to $4,000 and a year in jail. Being caught with more than four ounces is a felony, which can lead to at least 180 days and up to 99 years in prison and a fine of $10,000 – $50,000 (depending on the amount). There have been efforts in the Texas legislature to decriminalize marijuana, but nothing has passed. Possession of pot will result in prosecution, including the mandatory minimum sentence for the possession and sale of large amounts.

The drug penalties in the State of Texas depend on three factors:

• The amount of the substance you have in your possession.
• The type of substance in your possession.
• Whether you were in the presence of minors when you were caught.

The penalties for marijuana possession in the State of Texas include:

• Under 2 ounces: Class B misdemeanor.
• 4 ounces to 5 pounds: State jail felony.
• 5-50 pounds: 3rd degree felony.
• 50-2,000 pounds: 2nd degree felony.
• Over 2,000 pounds: Texas Department of Criminal Justice Institution for life or 5-99 years and a $50,000 fine.

The penalties for the sale of marijuana in the State of Texas include:

• 0.25 ounces or less: Class B misdemeanor (with no renumeration).
• 0.25 ounces or less: Class A misdemeanor (with renumeration).
• 0.25 ounces to 5 pounds: State jail felony.
• 5-50 pounds: 2nd degree felony.
• 50-2,000 pounds: 1st degree felony.
• Over 2,000 pounds: Texas Department of Criminal Justice Institution for life or 10-99 years and/or a fine of $100,000.

If you deliver over 0.25 ounces of marijuana to a minor under the age of 17 who is currently in school, you’ll be charged with a second-degree felony. And if you’re in a drug-free zone, the penalties will be doubled.

Medical Marijuana Laws in the State of Texas

While there has been some legislative support for the medical use of marijuana in the State of Texas, no comprehensive law has been put into place. But the state did pass a low-THC cannabis oil bill. Patients who qualify need to get a prescription from two certified specialists before they can be legally allowed to use cannabis oil with up to 0.5% THC. While the law has been put into effect, many people are skeptical about whether it be successfully implemented. While doctors can “prescribe” patients, few of them are willing to do it because prescribing a Schedule I Controlled Substance could put their DEA license at risk.

When the law was first passed, it only applied to the treatment of intractable epilepsy. But last year, Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill that expanded it to the following conditions:

• Alzheimer’s Disease
• Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
• Autism
• Huntington’s Disease
• Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
• Parkinson’s Disease
• Spasticity
• Terminal Cancer

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Like most parents, Miranda Lindley knows the stress of having a child who is beginning the school year online versus in person.

“The hardest part for us is having a six year old having, her sit still and keep her attention for the 30 minutes it would take on a screen,” said Lindley.

Lindley, who has also been working from home because of the pandemic, knows she is one of the luckily ones as she is able to keep an eye on her daughter throughout the school day.

If you have ever wondered what the most common crimes in Texas are, you’re not alone. Every state has their own set of crime statistics. In Texas, they vary with the population of each area. Texas is the second largest state in the US, so it has everything from vast rural areas to the fourth largest city in the country. So the greater the city’s population, the higher the crime rate. The Texas cities with the highest crime rates include:

• Houston
• San Antonio
• Dallas
• Austin
• Fort Worth

The Texas Department of Public Safety provides crime reports and statistics for each year, which allows residents to keep up with the most common crimes. When people are aware of the most common crimes being committed in their state, they can take measures to protect themselves.

Here are some of the most common crimes being committed in the State of Texas.

#1: Drugs

While drug-related offenses are common in every state, it’s a major problem in Texas. Drug offenses make up the majority of Texas arrests, which includes possession. This is no surprise when you consider the size of the state itself, and it should be no surprise that, like most states, drug crimes are taken seriously in Texas. There are certain types of drugs that are illegal to use, manufacture, share, distribute, sell, or possess. Some of them include but may not be limited to:

• Controlled Prescription Drugs (CPD).
• Heroin.
• Fentanyl and other synthetic opioids.
• Cocaine.
• Methamphetamines.
• Marijuana.
• New psychoactive substances (NPS).

Both the State of Texas and the federal government believe that the same substances go against the interests of the public and need to be categorized as “controlled substances.”

#2: Theft

Theft is the second most common crime in Texas. In the last year alone, there were 518,000 theft-related arrests in the State of Texas. If you have been accused of theft in the State of Texas, you might be able to use the following defenses:

• Lack of intent — You took the item without intending to steal it. You might have returned a borrowed item, regardless of how aggravating it might be for the owner.
• Mistake of fact — The item was thought to have been stolen when it really wasn’t.
• Age — While being a minor is not a complete defense, it may be a way to get a less severe penalty.

Be sure to speak to a qualified attorney for more information.

#3: Aggravated Assault

About 118,000 people were arrested for this crime in the State of Texas, and this number includes simple assault as well. Someone commits an act of assault it he or she:

• Intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causes bodily injury to someone else (which can include the person’s spouse).
• Intentionally or knowingly threatens someone else with bodily injury, which can include the person’s spouse.
• Intentionally or knowingly makes physical contact with someone else when he or she knows or should reasonably believe that the other person will consider the contact offensive or provocative.

Feel free to speak to qualified attorney for more information.

#4: Burglary

Anyone who illegally breaks into something is committing the crime of burglary. This can include a machine, a car, or a house. In the State of Texas, over 100,000 individuals are arrested every single year for committing burglary. Examples of this crime include but may not be limited to:

• Staying past your permitted time in a private or public building with the intention of committing an act of assault.
• Hiding inside a retail store after hours with the intention of committing an act of theft.
• Entering a rail car with the intention of commit theft.
• Breaking into a coin collection machine in an attempt to steal money.
• Using a coat hanger to unlock a car door with the intention of stealing a purse.
• Entering a recreational vehicle to assault someone inside.

Feel free to speak to a qualified attorney for more information.

#5: Robbery

Unlike burglary, robbery is considered a violent crime because it involves direct contact with the victim (which will typically lead to injury). In 2017, over 32,000 people were arrested for robbery in the State of Texas. Not only is it one of the most common Texas crimes, it’s also extremely dangerous to the victim. You should always be alert when you’re walking alone, and you should keep a phone on you at all times.

If you have been charged with a crime in the State of Texas and took a probation, you might be able to get an early termination. But to qualify, you need to complete at least a third or two years of your probation (whichever is less). Some serious offenses prohibit judges from approving an early termination of probation. If you have any questions about whether you’re able to get your probation terminated early, be sure to speak to a criminal defense attorney in Corpus Christi for more information.

What is an Early Termination of Probation?

Courts can decide to grant an early termination of probation, which they can do at their discretion. And they can grant it for many misdemeanor and felony offenses. Once you have gone through an early termination of probation hearing, you’ll no longer be on community supervision. But judges aren’t required to grant an early release. So, you won’t be able to force a judge to approve your motion for an early termination of probation. Even if you have completed all the terms, judges don’t have to grant an early discharge if they don’t want to. But most of them will listen to what you have to say and will try to reduce your probation whenever possible.

You want to minimize what you have on your criminal record, so you can reduce the number of future consequences (both seen and unforeseen) related to these charges. An early termination or deferred adjudication is one way to start this process. Having a probation on your record is better than a prison sentence, but being successful on a motion for an early termination of probation will look even better. Getting a charge reduced is always preferable to pleading guilty, which is why you need to speak to a qualified attorney for more information.

How Soon You Can Request an Early Termination of Probation

If you were given a probation sentence, you can ask for an early termination after it has been imposed. But a court will usually require defendants to serve at least nine months (or even one year) of a misdemeanor probation. For felony charges, they’ll require at least 18 months before you can qualify for an early termination. If you were given a regular or “straight” probation, you’ll have to complete at least a third of your probation or two years (whichever is less).

The Process for Requesting an Early Termination of Probation

To get an early termination of your probation, you’ll have to work with a qualified attorney to go through the following steps:

• Draft a motion that requests an early termination of your probation.
• Schedule a date to appear in court.
• Speak to the prosecutor and probation officer to get their support.
• Present your argument to the judge.

Before you can start your early termination of probation hearing, the prosecutor must get an advance written notice, so he or she has the opportunity to state any objections on the record. If your request for an early termination is successful, most judges won’t require you to pay any probation fees later on.

How Courts Decide to Grant an Early Termination of Probation

Courts will take a look at all the circumstances of your case, which can include but may not be limited to:

• The seriousness of the events leading to the conviction.
• Whether you have completed all the terms and conditions of your probation.
• The extent or lack of your criminal record.
• Whether the probation is keeping you from getting employment or any other benefits.
• The prosecutor’s position on the issue.

If you meet the basic requirements for an early termination of probation, the judge may consider your request if you meet all of the following:

• You showed exemplary behavior during your probation.
• You completed all the hours of your community service.
• You paid all of your fines and restitutions in full.
• You have met all the conditions of your probation.

There are, however, some offenses (such as sex crimes and DWI charges) that aren’t eligible for an early termination. If you want more information about what you can do to start the process and whether you qualify, Gale Law Group can help you.
