FIREARM / WEAPONS VIOLATION AND CALIFORNIA’S THREE STRIKES LAW

In California, committing a crime that involves a firearm or a weapon can enhance the penalties of other crimes that you’re charged with. Enhancement means that additional punishment, such as a lengthier prison sentence, applies if you used a weapon or firearm to commit the crime you’re charged with. In some instances, this can result in the addition of a strike on your criminal record. If you get a strike on your record, this enhances the punishment that you receive if convicted of a subsequent crime. So, you should be aware of these consequences.
