Judge Tom

AsktheJudge.info is an educational site for and about teens and the law. It sounds like the new judge could preclude the witness and evidence from being presented, but the new defense attorney most likely would need to file a motion to have it precluded and a hearing may be scheduled to hear from both sides on the matter. You need to speak with a local criminal defense attorney for more information on this. Thanks for writing us. (Check our Teen Help Network for more help and resources in your area. This is information only – not legal advice.)
