In a criminal case, the state, through a prosecutor, initiates the suit, while in a civil case the victim brings the suit. Persons convicted of a crime may be incarcerated, fined, or both. Criminal defense attorneys represent clients who have been accused of committing a crime, and defend their rights at each stage of a misdemeanor or felony case -- from an arrest to an appeal after conviction. Criminal defense attorneys may be hired privately or provided by the government (called "public defenders").
Exchange is an unincorporated community in Braxton County, West Virginia, United States that has the ZIP code of 26619. It was originally named Millburn by the owner of the mill there. When the post office was established in 1906 the first postmaster, Mrs. Samantha Duffield, suggested the current name because the stores, the mill, and the blacksmith shop changed owners so often.
