Charges and Penalties for Terrorist Threats

Criminal Threats may be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the nature of the crime and a defendant's criminal history.

Defendants in misdemeanor cases may face up to one year in jail and fines of no more than $1000. A felony is punishable by multiple years in prison and counts as a "strike" under California's three-strikes law. Defendants may also face increased charges if a deadly weapon was used during the course of a crime. If you have questions about where you stand in your case, our legal team is here to help.

It is important to note that a person may be charged with making terrorist threats even if no physical contact, violence, or action occurred.

In the eyes of the law, it can be enough to communicate a threat, either verbally or through writing, which causes another person to reasonably fear for their safety. The circumstantial nature of terrorist and criminal threat cases underscores the importance of taking swift legal action.

With the guidance of an effective legal advocate from our firm, it is possible to overcome the charges you face. We know how to fight for reduced charges, dismissals, and acquittals.
