Let's say that you live in one of the above mentioned states and have been convicted of a federal crime. There are 50 different sets of state law, but federal law is consistent throughout the nation. Whether the firm walks into a federal courtroom in Wilmington, Delaware, Newark, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, the federal statutes, rules of procedure and rules of evidence are the same.
