Q: Likelihood of having adjudication withheld in misdemeanor battery? I was recently arrested for a bar fight which resulted in a misdemeanor battery charge. I was not taken to jail and was released with a citation and a court date. I’ve had two other misdemeanor charges which both resulted in nolle prosequi, one for riding a motorcycle without endorsement, and one for driving an unregistered vehicle. Both of these were several years ago. Seeing as this was my first ever violent offence, I’m hoping best case scenario, I’ll be offered pre-trial intervention, or at the very least a withholding of adjudication and probation. So I have two questions, one, does this seem likely given the circumstances? And two, from what I’ve researched, as long as they withhold adjudication, I should be able to apply to have the record sealed, correct? Or will the prior misdemeanors preclude that?

1) Maybe;
2) Yes; and now…..
3) Your chances of accomplishing #1 and # 2 above will exponentially increase if you have a skilled and experienced 516 area criminal defense attorney representing your interests.
In fact, before you dig the hole and begin to nail down your coffin consider that you might not enjoy viable defense(s) to your charge, affirmative or otherwise, or that there may be factual, legal, procedural or substantive mechanisms by which to attack and beat the charges in your unique case. There may be aggravators or mitigators which can effect the sentence. There are just too many factors to consider to venture an educated guess on line.
My advise: Get offline and into a skilled and experienced Boynton Beach area criminal defense lawyer’s office. Use the “Find a Lawyer” feature on AVVO to locate proximate lawyers, make an appointment, show up on time, bring whatever evidence, documents or witnesses that you may have, engage in a meaningful face-to-face consultation and get yourself some advise which is legally sound and has been custom tailored as possible to meet your specific reasonable needs in your unique case.
I hope that I have been helpful in answering your question.
