Q: Will the judge lock me up for not complying or doing my volunteer hrs .Ive gone to these places but they can't help me.
A: It's possible the judge will lock you up for not complying or doing your volunteer hours. The question is also going to be why these places can't help you after going to them. It already does not sound like a good reason. Of course more facts are required to provide a thorough analysis. Seek a consultation with a lawyer to discuss your options. It sounds like there's a court date approaching that you need to get ready for. If there is no court date, you may need to add your case to calendar to address these issues before being dragged into court.
A: If you're referring to community service, then failure to abide by court orders can result in contempt charges and ultimately potentially jail time and/or a fine. More details are necessary to provide a professional analysis of your issue. The best first step is an Initial Consultation with an Attorney.
