Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
robbery 1st
I am a 21 yr old male with no prior convictions. I was indicted on a robbery 1st class b felony. I was classified as the getaway driver. Should I have been charged with the same charge as the people that actually robbed the person?

Re: robbery 1st
Yes, under NYS law an accomplice may be charges with the same crime as those who actually commit the crime.
Has your case been indicted yet? I would suggest hiring a lawyer ASAP, this is the type of case where it could mean the difference between not only liberty and freedom but also a huge difference in how this case may affect you for the rest of your life.
