Q: What happens if I violate informal probation San Benito county as I was currently in Santa Cruz county jail for 9 months
When I was released I had a hold on me then I had a court date in San Benito county I'm currently fighting my case into Santa Cruz county and taking it to Jerry trail what will happen to me in San Benito county for violating informal probation
A:
THERE IS NO WAY FOR A LAWYER IN PALM SPRINGS TO KNOW HOW THAT COURT ACTS.
IT DEPENDS ON WHAT THE CHARGE WAS THAT PLACED YOU ON INFORMAL/SUMMARY PROBATION.
OBVIOUSLY, THE 9 MONTHS IN JAIL SUGGESTED A VERY SERIOUS CHARGE........WAS IT A FELONY REDUCED TO A MISDEMEANOR?
THE BEST ADVICE IS TO CALL THE LAWYER WHO REPRESENTED YOU ON THE INFORMAL PROBATION CHARGE AND ADVISE HIM OR HER OF YOUR SITUATION AND FOR SUGGESTIONS.
