What is the difference between mail fraud and wire fraud in federal court?
Yes. Mail fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1341) involves using the U.S. Postal Service to commit fraud. Wire fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1343) involves using electronic communications like email or phone calls. Both carry up to 20 years in federal prison.
Can I get bail for a federal white collar crime in Talbot County?
It depends. Federal judges consider flight risk and danger to the community. Many white collar defendants receive pretrial release with conditions like GPS monitoring, travel restrictions, and surrender of passports. A hearing is held in U.S. District Court.

No single number applies. The guidelines calculate a base offense level, then add points for loss amount, number of victims, and role in the offense. Your attorney can estimate your range after reviewing the facts.
