Asked 8/4/17 – San Antonio, TX

Its cause he stabbed me a couple of times he doesn’t have a bad background ‘til he picked this charge they gave him 20 yes I just want to know if I can reopened the case for less time he was a good person never had hurt me ‘til someone else told him I was seeing my ex which it wasn’t true I was working he told me he had a lot on his head!

Answer

It is possible that any criminal case CAN be reopened, but the question is: On what grounds? “I don’t like the result” is not a basis for a new trial. Was a trail held on the matter or was a plea bargain agreed to? If you are the victim of the assault, did you let the State know of your desires? Did you let anyone know you wanted to testify at sentencing? Contact the attorney who represented your friend.
