Calabasas Criminal Threats Lawyer

In California, “Criminal Threats”, previously known “Terrorists Threats”, is a very serious crime of words. A Criminal Threat is a threat to commit any crime of violence with the purpose of (A) terrorizing another, (B) Causing the evacuation of a building, public or assembly, or facility of public transportation, (C) causing serious public inconvenience, or (D) recklessly disregarding the risk of causing such terror or inconvenience.

A Criminal Threat, as defined in Penal Code Section 422, can be charged as a misdemeanor or felony, but is usually charged as a felony. Pursuant to California’s “Three-Strikes” law, a conviction of a felonious Criminal Threat will cause a strike to be recorded on the defendant’s criminal record for the rest of her life. The California Legislature has mandated very severe consequences for a Criminal Threats conviction, including state prison confinement, parole, probation, steep fines, and a criminal conviction on your record which cannot be expunged.
