Question

I was arrested in Jan for misdemeanor battery. The arrest warrant had a similar name to mine and I was booked under that name. The arresting officers didn't have the arrest warrant changed to my legal name. I had an arraignment scheduled for April and it was changed to June. I called the Judges' chamber and was informed that my case is no longer on the calendar because it hasn't been "accused". How should I proceed with this?



Answer

Since you were arrested in January you obviously should have hired a lawyer at that time, who would have told you to never call the Judge. I'd suggest you listen to him and do whatever he tells you to do.



Answer

I suggest you get a consultation from a lawyer. He/she can go over the facts of your case in detail and help you resolve your case via trial, pretrial motions, etc.

Answer

You should "proceed" by hiring a lawyer.



Answer

Proceed with what the open charges, the info regarding the accusation, what are you referring to? If you miss your court date a bench warrant will be issued and you will be arrested. If the courts have your correct address, the name on the accusation should not matter. See website on how to retain the right attorney: www.lawrencelewispc.com
