Q: Can a probation case that was already closed be reopened and re evaluated by lawyers if it was mishandled in the past

I just want some advice because i was a first offender and i got put on probation for 30 years and have had to pay fees i cannot afford and never will be able to afford to a place that no longer exists.

A: You can file a Motion to Terminate Probation. I would recommend talking to a lawyer to better evaluate your chances for early termination.
