I've already plead not guilty and it's to late to get a public defender I won't have funds for at least 2 weeks and court is the beginning of next month I'm desperately needing help or help getting another reset
It's been over 5 years since. I have no other court fees to pay and no other charges. The DA in Wilson County, Tn told me the Implied Consent charge couldn't be dismissed. After she done rigorous research on the topic, which took 3 days, she couldn't find the answer of why it... Read more »

It can not be but the DA can put an order in that it can not be considered a misdemeanor and used against you.

Yes...You are on Probation so you have to abide by the Probation terms. Any violation can mean you could be incarcerated for the remainder of the Sentence. There should be some kind of Probation Order in your file at Court. Read it.

Possible misdemeanor vandalism or littering. But it would not be worth the trouble of being a witness/victim in Court.

Hire a competent attorney. You will not be able to represent yourself effectively for such Felony charges.
several small stashes of marijuana were found. My oldest received a simple possession charge. She does not partake in marijuana. If I took a negative hair follicle drug test to court and questioned the fact that the car is not hers, would the charge possibly be dropped?

Daughter needs a competent attorney now to prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. The hair test would be heresay without expert testimony, but is something to tell the DA. She does not want a drug conviction on her record. It sounds like a consent search also.
the car was supposed to be in both of our name but when I got arrested I realized the car lot only put it in his name, I was arrested and was put in jail for 3 days, I put the money dwn on the car and was paying the car note.

What is your question? Hire a competent attorney now, because you are probably charged with a Felony and facing incarceration. Prepare for a vigorous Preliminary Hearing without fail.

And my case was bound over

There are varying SOL's for initiation of criminal charges for different Felonies. Usually you will be indicted within one month or one year. Keep in contact with the Criminal Court each month to see if you are indicted and need to appear for Arraignment. And talk to your lawyer.
stuff what happens next it’s been over 2 months?
answered on May 24, 2022
The statute of limitations has not run yet so there is still a chance you can be charged.

Walmart's agents frequent witnesses in Sessions Court. Usually permanent trespass prohibitions are also ordered. You have been misinformed.
Case has been reset five times only one subpoena issued is this legal?

Depends on a variety of things but if it is requested it should be sent out each time.
What does expiration order mean? Am I off probation?
