A: It sounds like you may need to speak with an attorney who can review your specific case and provide legal advice tailored to your situation. It is unusual for someone to be charged for the same offense in multiple courts, especially if one of the charges has already been disposed of and rehabilitated. Additionally, it is important to ensure that proper notice and service of process is provided in any legal proceedings. A lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and determine the best course of action to address the issues you are facing.
