Legal Proceedings in San Joaquin County

Sex crime charges filed in Manteca are typically handled through the San Joaquin County Superior Court. Clients can expect the following stages:

1. Arraignment
   The first formal court appearance, where charges are read and a plea is entered. We may address bail, review the complaint, and begin early defense planning.
2. Pretrial Proceedings
   This includes discovery, motions, and potential negotiations. These stages provide opportunities to contest evidence and assess options for dismissal, reduction, or resolution.
3. Trial or Disposition
   If the case proceeds to trial, we prepare a structured, fact-based defense and represent you throughout all courtroom proceedings. Alternatively, we assess plea offers based on the strength of the prosecution’s case and your personal priorities.

A strategic approach at each stage is essential. Local knowledge of court procedures, prosecutor expectations, and evidentiary rules allows us to navigate your case efficiently and with precision.

Types of Charges We Handle

Krueger Legal represents clients facing a range of sex-related charges under California law, including:

• Sexual Assault
  Allegations involving non-consensual sexual contact or coercion. We analyze the factual basis of the complaint and whether legal definitions of consent and force have been properly applied.
• Indecent Exposure
  Though often charged as a misdemeanor, these cases can carry serious collateral consequences, including potential registration.
• Possession or Distribution of Child Pornography
  High-stakes felony charges that require careful handling of digital evidence, chain of custody, and procedural compliance.

We also advise on registration requirements and eligibility for post-conviction relief where applicable.
