At JacksonWhite, we analyze your case to determine all possible legal options we have available, and we have a number of options at your disposal for seeking reduced or dropped charges. In harassment cases, the following are some of our most common defenses.<\/p><h3>Proving Lack of Intent or Knowledge<\/h3><p>Arizona\u2019s harassment laws stipulate that for an act to qualify as harassment, either the perpetrator must have intended it, or possess knowledge that his\/her actions cause it. Even if their actions cause alarm or harassment to someone, but without intent to cause harm or knowledge that their actions would lead to such consequences.\u00a0<\/p><p>Hence if their actions cause alarm or harassment to someone they cannot be charged with harassment as long as this was never their intent nor they had knowledge their actions would cause such consequences.<\/p><h3>Proving that the Victim was Not Seriously Alarmed, Annoyed or Harassed<\/h3><p>This defense may be useful when harassment charges are initiated without explicit consent from the victim. Even when actions meet the legal definition of harassment, they may still not qualify unless their actions caused genuine distress for their target. It is crucial to ascertain if their target perceived their actions as acts of loving concern or one-off incidents before making this determination; otherwise, if their interpretation differs, the defendant should not be charged with harassment.<\/p><h3>Lowering the Charge from a Felony to a Misdemeanor<\/h3><p>Under Arizona Revised Statute <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azleg.gov\/ars\/13\/00604.htm\">13-604<\/a>, Arizona courts may have the discretion to reduce class 6 felonies to class 1 misdemeanors when the offense is nonviolent and it is the defendant\u2019s first offense. This provision offers individuals charged with harassment an opportunity for more favorable outcomes; their potential penalty could be reduced from two years in prison to as little as six months incarceration by taking advantage of this provision.<\/p><h3>Miranda Rights Violations<\/h3><p>Asserting that law enforcement violated your Miranda rights is a popular legal strategy in criminal court. This strategy centers around the principle that you have an absolute right to know about and protect those rights.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54c41ef exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"54c41ef\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"\/contact\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Explore Your Options<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-069110b exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"069110b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Getting Qualified Legal Representation for Harassment Charges.
