Q: I got 180 days in La county jail for a technical violation of probation how much time will I do.
A: Currently, it's commonly thought that inmates serve about 10% of their sentence.
A:
more info needed.
what was the violation? what was the charge? do you have a long record? how long have you been on probation doing well? who is the judge? what is the position of the DA? what courthouse are you in?
A:
Unless your charge that you are on probation for is a violent or serious Felony or a Sex crime, as of November 1, 2019, the LA Sheriff is booking and releasing defendants with 180 days or less sentences! It is NOT a guarantee, but that is what my clients have been telling me as well as the Sheriffs deputies at the jail. Try to have an IRC self-surrender on a Friday to increase the likelihood of getting released immediately.
Good luck!
