Criminal Defense
Residents in Mississippi who are charged with a crime will benefit from the help of a Mississippi criminal defense attorney with a record of success defending clients and helping them navigate through the MS criminal justice system. John M. Colette and his criminal defense staff work quickly and thoroughly to investigate criminal cases and to protect and defend clients.
DUI/DWI
Desde 1985 el bufete de abogados de John M. Colette y los Socios ha estado proporcionando una defensa penal de calidad excelente a la gente de Mississippi y los estados cerca de Mississippi. Señor Colette ha trabajado de muchos pleitos complejos y tiene mucho experiencia en ambos tribunales estados y federales. Más allá de su especialidad en los crímenes negocios como fraude y malversación, Señor Colette tiene mucho experiencia con clientes con cargos como DUI (la conducción de un vehículo bajo de la influencia) y asesinato del capitolio.
Fraud
“ Two years ago I found myself in a nightmare situation. I was 1 of 12 defendant’s, 9 of whom I had never met or worked with directly or indirectly, in a nation wide healthcare case for conspiracy to commit healthcare fraud. I was on the outside of what was described as a wide net, but non the less I faced life changing consequences.
Robbery
RICO prohibits participation in a pattern of two or more racketeering activities. Criminal racketeering activities include syndicate gambling, loan sharking, murder, kidnapping, robbery, bribery, extortion, obscenity, and drug trafficking. RICO establishes severe criminal penalties, including a prison term of 20 years, fines up to twice the gross profits of the offense, and forfeitures of interests maintained in or acquired through the ”enterprise.” It permits the government to obtain pretrial and pre-indictment restraining orders to aid in forfeiting a defendant’s property.
White Collar Crimes
If you have been charged with a white-collar crime or suspect that you are under investigation for a white-collar crime, it is essential that you seek legal advice immediately so that you can plan an effective defense.
Theft
Misdemeanors
The difference between misdemeanors and felonies is the severity of punishment. The United States Code defines a misdemeanor to be an offense that is punishable by imprisonment for up to 1 year. A petty offense is a misdemeanor that is punishable by no more than six months in prison and/or a fine of no more than $5,000.
Embezzlement
In Mississippi, the act of embezzlement involves the criminal transference of one person's property by another person who is deemed to be in a position of trust. It occurs when money or other assets are fraudulently transferred to another person by an employee, volunteer, or other involved party of whom responsibility has been given for the property, most often for personal financial gain.
Drug Crimes
There are already laws in place which allow for an expungement in certain situations where charges have been dismissed or when someone was non-adjudicated. However, with the exception of some minor drug offenses, never before have persons who are convicted and sentenced for a FELONY been eligible for an expungement.
Assault
Murder
After experiencing the loss of her husband, Elisha was charged for being responsible for his murder! From day one, Elisha adamantly denied any involvement whatsoever, and after the combined efforts of Mr. Colette & Dennis Sweet, a highly respected Jackson attorney, the jury finally rendered a NOT GUILTY verdict. This case involved a total failure on the part of the prosecution to prove any element of their case against Elisha. Thankfully the jury was able to see through the smoke and mirrors put on by the prosecution, and at the end of the day, justice prevailed. The verdict was a result of Mr. Colette and Mr. Sweets relentless, determined and creative defense of Elisha.
Identity Theft
Arson
Complex federal and state criminal defense matters include white collar crimes by the corporate, commercial or individual accused, such as fraud upon government agencies, mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, tax fraud, health care fraud. Such charges can also include, among other offenses, RICO charges, environmental offenses, money laundering and financial and securities offenses, drug crimes, arson and complex theft offenses.
Shoplifting
The new law applies to convictions for: Bad Check Offenses, Possession of a Controlled Substance, Possession of Paraphernalia, False Pretense, Larceny, Malicious Mischief and Shoplifting.
Restraining Order
Forgery
“White Collar Crime" generally refers to a crime committed through deceit and motivated by financial gain. There are numerous types of white collar crimes, the most common involve business offenses such as fraud, bribery, insider trading, public corruption, environmental crime, pension fund crime, securities fraud, and forgery. Such crimes typically are performed with the use of paperwork or computers. Investigation by authorities can often take place over the course of months or years.
Money Laundering
Money laundering has been characterized as the “life blood” of narcotics trafficking and traditional organized crime. The Money Laundering Control Act (“MLCA”) of 1986 makes laundering proceeds from “specified unlawful activity” a federal crime. The MLCA also aimed to stem the flow of illicit profits back to the criminal enterprise used to capitalize and expand criminal activity.
