In California, a "wobbler" is a charge that can be filed as either a felony or a misdemeanor. This classification often depends on the specific circumstances of a case and an individual’s history. In the courts of Shasta and Siskiyou counties, judges have the discretion to reduce certain wobblers, which can fundamentally change the trajectory of a legal matter. Attorney Timothy M. Prentiss II draws on his experience as a former prosecutor to identify these strategic opportunities and help clients navigate their options with confidence.

Recent high-value drug seizures on I-5 in Siskiyou County often begin with minor mechanical violations, such as a cracked windshield or a non-functioning tail light. These pretextual stops are frequently used by law enforcement to initiate investigations into potential false compartments, but the legal validity of the initial stop and the subsequent search must be carefully examined. Attorney Timothy M. Prentiss II utilizes his experience as a former prosecutor to scrutinize police reports for procedural errors or constitutional violations that may impact a case. If you have questions about your situation, Prentiss Law & Associates can help you understand your options. Call (530) 691-0245.

A DUI arrest in Shasta County initiates two distinct legal tracks: an administrative proceeding with the DMV and a separate criminal case in court. Many individuals are unaware that there is a strict 10-day window from the date of arrest to request a DMV hearing and protect their driving privileges. Attorney Timothy M. Prentiss II utilizes his unique experience as both a former prosecutor and a public defender in Northern California to help clients navigate these overlapping processes. This dual perspective provides a strategic advantage in understanding how the prosecution builds its case while identifying critical weaknesses in the evidence. If you have questions about your situation, Prentiss Law & Associates can help you understand your options. Call (530) 691-0245.
