Q: When there's an application to revoke that's been filed, after a prior one has been dismissed, according to Title 22, th
The first revocation is only a 6 month sanction? If it's just technical violations. Is there any loop holes to consider? Or be on the lookout for?
A:
It’s not necessarily a scheduled formula of punishment. When you violate the rules and conditions of your probation, the state, through the district attorneys office, and the judge have the power to punish you in a variety of different ways including a minimal slap on the wrist to incarceration potentially. It depends on the charges and the type of sentence and probation you received.
You need to contact your attorney in the case or some other seasoned criminal defense attorney with the specifics of your situation to get the best answer to your question.
Best of luck!
