Q: if you are forced to leave a court appointed rehab, what is the grace period to report back to jail?
i was signed out of jail to go to a court appointed rehab. They made me leave. I need to know how many hours i have to report back to jail before a warrent is issued
A: Have your lawyer report the same to the Court through a Motion to Alter the previous Probation Order or Judgment of Conviction. This needs to be done tomorrow, and try to appear before the Court quick, whatever County he is sitting in. Call your lawyer tonight. If you do not have a decent lawyer, just go to Jail.
