What are my options in court?

After getting charged by police, you’ll generally have one of two options in court on your first day, as outlined in the below flowchart.

Some more serious cases won’t require you to enter a plea on the first court date, at least until a complete brief of evidence is served by police first.

We can talk to you about this further to tailor our advice to your particular case. Call us today.

Do I have to write a good character or apology letter for court?

If being sentenced in court for a criminal or traffic charge, a powerful good character & apology letter for court can be used to convince the Judge or Magistrate to impose a lighter sentence.

This can significantly increase your chances of avoiding a conviction, and in more serious cases, avoid full-time jail.

Our lawyers can discuss this further and guide you through it.

How to get a non-conviction outcome in court?

You will avoid receiving a criminal conviction if:
  1. You plead guilty and convince the Judge or Magistrate to give you a section 10 non-conviction sentence; or
  2. The court finds you ‘not guilty’ after hearing evidence from both sides in a defended hearing or trial; or
  3. The court dismisses the charge(s) under the mental health grounds such as section 32 Mental Health (Forensic Provisions) Act.

Our Parramatta criminal lawyers can discuss each of these options with you, and work towards achieving it.
