I was charged for dog attack and dog at large when in fact the other dog was at large and on my property then my dog jumped fence and got in fight with other dog on neighbors property. The other owner was not charged at all.Does anyone have legal advice in Utah? For criminal charges?
This would be misdemeanor offenses. The municipal court would have a prosecutor to represent the city or the other person. You will have to hire your own attorney. Only in Felony and Federal cases would a Court appointed attorney represent you. I'm sure there are some legal aid agencies that base your fee on how much you make. Look in you local phone bookDoes anyone have legal advice in Utah? For criminal charges?
If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to represent you (public defender's office).
Tell the court you can't afford an attorney (if this is true).
Plus, your two scenarios are contradictory. Which one was it? Your dog jumped your fence and into a neighbor's property? If so, that's the reason why you were charged and not the neighbor.
Get an attorney.......looks like you are at fault......you dog got out..........sorry......
