Definitions. An accusation of indecent exposure may occur when a person willfully and lewdly exposes his or her private parts to someone else and is motivated by a desire to sexually gratify themselves or to offend the other person.
In some cases, if the person being accused of indecent exposure also touches him/herself or another person with sexual intent, they may also get charged with a violation of lewd conduct in public under Penal Code section 647(a).
Typically, a person accused of indecent exposure is not put in jail. The accused receives a citation, a “Notice to Appear” or a letter from the San Diego County District Attorney to appear in court.
Other times the accused is arrested and placed into custody
Get Out of Jail. When a client is in jail there are several ways attorney Pflaum helps him or her get released from jail before the first court date, or during the first court date at the arraignment.
The procedures to get a person out of custody depends on the circumstances of the alleged crime and the present status of the accused, i.e., ties to the community, employment, ownership of property, age, health, prior criminal record, military experience and character references.

STRATEGIES OF THE CRIMINAL LAWYER FOR INDECENT EXPOSURE
Criminal lawyer Pflaum knows that the appropriate defense depends upon the circumstances of the detention and arrest, the alleged evidence, who the eye witnesses are, physical evidence, the identity and background of the client and the alleged victim, and police officer testimony.
Every case is different. Each case is unique.
Typical strategic defense moves may include the following.
- There was no exposing of private parts
- Lack of corroboration
- Insufficiency of the evidence
- Motive to lie
- Bias of the witness
- False accusation
- Improper identification of the accused
- Violation of rights
- Coerced confession
Plea Bargains. A plea bargain is an agreement between the defense, the prosecution, and the judge to resolve the case before trial.
A good plea bargain should eliminate or reduce the original charges and avoid further time in prison or custody.
A client is under no legal obligation to accept a plea bargain offer, but plea bargaining is the first stage in every criminal case.
To get an excellent plea bargain defense attorney Pflaum must first get to know his client well, including the client’s account of the incident, background, present status, and standing in the community.
Defense attorney Pflaum analyzes the police reports, 911 calls, alleged victim’s statements, witness statements, and any other alleged evidence in the case to determine the strengths of the client’s case and the weaknesses of the prosecution’s case.
The defense attorney then makes a presentation to the prosecution and the judge to get a favorable plea bargain offer for the client.
If the plea bargain offer is acceptable to the client and the attorney, the case is resolved. If not the case continues to additional court dates and heads towards a trial.
Jury Trial. In some cases, depending upon the circumstances, the evidence, and the client’s preference, the case may proceed to jury trial where defense lawyer Pflaum has extensive experience.
