Acquittal Of Conspiracy

Under common law principles, if other parties to the conspiracy for which the defendant was being tried had already been found not guilty of conspiracy, then the defendant had to be be exonerated (see exonerated of conspiracy charges) of the crime of conspiracy.

Conspiracy Trials

Today, most jurisdictions continue to apply the rule of exoneration, but only when all parties to the conspiracy are tried together. Any party to a crime involving a conspiracy can be found guilty or not guilty of the underlying crime (the object crime of the conspiracy), without regard to the rest of the parties, even when the parties are tried together.

Appeals & Serious Crimes - Homicide - Murder

Van Wagner & Wood's criminal defense lawyers handle appeals to both the Appellate Court and the Supreme Court, as well as both state and Federal court systems for people convicted of a crime who believe their conviction or sentence were wrong. Most often, the appeals that they handle are to federal court because very few attorneys handle these types of appeals; Attorney Chris Van Wagner was a US Attorney in Wisconsin before entering private practice. Often times, people from across the United States hire Attorney Van Wagner for a Federal or a state appeal for serious crimes including homicide, RICO (Racketeering), felony murder, negligent homicide, vehicular homicide, or sexual assault. Attorney Tracey Wood handles appeals to Wisconsin State Court of Appeals and Wisconsin Supreme Court for charges or convictions stemming from a Wisconsin trial.
