Legal and Illegal Search and Seizure

If law enforcement finds a gun in the possession of an individual (the defendant), but finds it during an illegal search and seizure, the weapons charges may not hold up in court. Though the law permits law enforcement officers to search for weapons in legal search warrants and in stop-and-frisk cases, they must have grounds for reasonable suspicion to do so. If they do not, the weapon may not hold up in court as evidence for charges. A gun crime defense lawyer can perform due diligence to be sure that law enforcement is using the gun legally as evidence. If it is not, it could mean a difference in prison time or freedom. Using evidence illegally procured will not stand in a court of law.

Gun crimes range from minor offenses involving possession of weapons to severe felonies involving firearms.  Gun crimes have been on the rise in recent years, and as a result, gun laws are changing in many states. Even though Arizona has generous gun laws, high-profile shootings and cases of shootings across the board provide prosecutors with plenty of reasons to draw a hard line when it comes to offenses that involve firearms. Generally, the tactics of the prosecution are more aggressive for gun crime cases.
