At the preliminary hearing how likely is a judge to reduce a wobbler charged as a felony to misdemeanor?
What is likely to influence this decision?
It seems like prosecutors will overcharge defendants, but will the Judges bring balance to that by reducing wobblers at the preliminary hearing if the charges are not as serious as the prosecutors say?
