"Three Strikes" Crimes

Under California’s “three strikes” law, any third felony for a defendant with two prior serious or violent felonies results in a prison sentence of 25 years to life.

A defendant with any second felony following a serious or violent felony faces a doubled prison sentence.

Under certain circumstances, a judge can “strike” or remove the prior strike so that the defendant is not facing the increased prison sentence.

The “three strikes” law is very complicated and an experienced attorney can explain the full range of consequences and defenses to a “three strikes” crime.
