- Q. do the law count the time from when the felony was caught or once the sentence was over.
- A: Please provide more details. What are you trying to count? If you are looking for an expungement, that would need to be filed in the state where the conviction occurred. The expungement laws vary from state to state. I know you said it was in another state, but by way of example a felony conviction in PA is never eligible for expungement unless you petition for and are granted a Governor's Pardon first. Check with an attorney in the county and state where the conviction occurred as that would be the court where an expungement petition would need to be filed. Good luck!
- Q. What is the specific PA statues for simple assault
- A: 18 Pa.C.S. 2701 is the simple assault statute. You can read it here: https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/LI/consCheck.cfm?txtType=HTM&ttl=18&div=0&chpt=27&sctn=1&subsctn=0&mobile_choice=suppress As a side note, you probably could have just googled this.
- Q. Brother and sister entered my home when nobody was here and stole my guns knives and personal property
- A: You need to provide more information and formulate a question so that attorneys can weigh in with replies. If the brother & sister took your property you should report it to the police immediately -- especially since there is a gun involved. Should something happen with that gun and you did not report it stolen you would be exposing yourself to both criminal and civil liabilities.
