What Could Happen at Trial? | Law Office of John Guidry
Oh, the questions I get. I wish I could answer every one of them. After defending criminal cases here in Central Florida for over 30 years, I have a pretty good idea of what happens at a criminal trial. But I’ve also been around long enough to know that I don’t know everything. There are some things we know we don’t know, and there are some things we don’t know that we don’t know.

Latest News in Fifth Circuit Criminal Law with Attorney Jack Palmeri – October, 2023
United States v. Marlon Jones, Docket # 22-30480
Marlon Jones appeals the district court’s resentencing of Jones following its revocation of his supervised release. Jones argues that the district court incorrectly determined that it was required to classify Jones’s 2009 drug conviction as a Class A felony pursuant to the law as it stood at the time of his original conviction, rather than as a Class B felony pursuant to the law as it had changed under the retroactively applicable First Step Act of Because the Fifth Circuit held that the district court was not prohibited from considering changes in law made retroactively applicable by Congress under the First Step Act, it vacated Jones’s sentence and REMAND for resentencing.
How to Get a Hardship License After a DUI Arrest
Criminal defense attorney John Guidry discusses how you can get a hardship license after your license was suspended due to a DUI charge and the costs of a hardship license. A hardship license is a license for first offenders only and it allows you to drive despite not having your full license back due to the DUI. To get a hardship license, you must sign up for the DUI school “Level One, bring your paperwork to the class and pay for the class. After you have signed up, you will have to take proof of the class to the Bureau of Administrative Reviews and they can administer a hardship license. John Guidry shares that you only have 10 days to get a hardship license; thus, it’s important to act fast.
