Here are some of the key rights you have when facing criminal charges in Florida:

  • Right to Remain Silent: You have the right to remain silent and not incriminate yourself. This means you do not have to answer any questions from law enforcement or prosecutors without first consulting with a criminal defense attorney.
  • Right to Legal Representation: You have the right to an attorney to represent you throughout the criminal proceedings. If you cannot afford an attorney, the court will appoint a public defender to represent you.
  • Right to Due Process: This includes the right to a fair and impartial trial, the right to present evidence and witnesses in your defense, and the right to cross-examine witnesses against you.
  • Right to a Speedy Trial: This means that your case should be resolved without unnecessary delays.
  • Right to Confront Witnesses: You may confront and cross-examine witnesses who testify against you in court.
  • Right to Bail: In most cases, you have the right to reasonable bail, which allows you to be released from custody while you are awaiting trial.
  • Right to Presumption of Innocence: You are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The burden of proof rests on the prosecution to establish your guilt.
  • Right to Appeal: If you are convicted of a crime, then you may appeal the verdict or sentence.
