If the charges are not dismissed and/or you are indicted they don't cover your defense. Statements and/or promises posted on a website are not a legal contract. IANAL, but that is my non-legal opinion.

Do you have a cite or specific anecdotal circumstance that validates your claim? Or, were you just stating your opinion?

OK, I have nothing to cite.....it is my opinion.......now, that being said, let's say your attorney is in fact taken care of as stated above up to and including a no-bill. That does not cover expert testimony, research, paperwork, filings, and all the other stuff associated with a prosecution. Not to mention what it is gonna take if you are found at fault and indicted by the GJ and stand trial.

Those are my points, for your consideration.

Nope.

And paying the retainer to CHLPP does not provide NO legal cost defense either!

You will end up paying lots of money if you ever need defense for a shooting incident. Bottom Line......

My opinion is that until proven guilty the access to law/courts should be no cost to citizens. And I do not agree with any "Court Costs" either. It is all bull as far as I am concerned. Just another money grab.

But, with the new procedure of "The Chosen One" by making the new ways of arrest/prosecution lean toward GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT, I have no faith at all........
