A: The “what happens” is not a ‘one size fits all’ or does it yourself’. You need to direct this question to your retained attorney. Many factors could affect the outcome. A case sentenced in the last 11 months might be treated differently than earlier sentenced cases. Of course, the kind of crime is important: what a sex offender or robber might get is different than a non-violent offender. The criminal record is important. The guideline scoresheet is important. Who the prosecutor or judge might be is important. Get help!
