CHARGE: CARRYING A PISTOL WITHOUT A LICENSE

Marin & Barrett, Inc., is extremely pleased to report that a Client charged with carrying a pistol without a license – a felony offense – resolved with a three-year deferred sentence.  In Rhode Island, carrying a pistol without a license is a felony offense punishable by up to ten (10) years at the Adult Correctional Institute.  After meeting with the prosecutor handling the case, Marin & Barrett, Inc., was able to negotiate the favorable three-year deferred sentence on behalf of the Client. The three-year deferred sentence does not constitute a conviction and it allows the Client to have the case fully expunged from his record upon successful completion of the three-year deferred sentence period.

CASE RESULT: THREE YEAR DEFERRED SENTENCE in May 2021
