The best thing to do would be to just turn yourself in. One thing is for sure - it won't go away - and these things have a way of turning up at the least handy time and biting you.
Go talk to your probation officer as soon as possible and explain why you did whatever you did and even if it was a stupid mistake, admit it up front and ask them to help you out.
If you drink and drive and pick up a DWI or worse DUI, then you are in violation of your probation. However, if it was not specified otherwise in your original court papers, then drinking should not be a violation of your felony probation.
First, there is no such thing as a misdemeanor probation violation. A probation violation is a probation violation. It is a violation of a judge's order, and whoa to he who violates the order of a judge. So, yes, Texas will extradite from the moon for a probation violation, Wyoming should be a minor issue for the Texas prosecutor. Do yourself a favor and waive your extradition hearing. Nothing is likely to irritate the prosecutor or the judge than a fish on the hook that fights being dragged into the boat. When you get back before the judge, be quiet until your turn to speak, be respectful, and beg forgiveness.
There is no statute. you should be able to call any lawyer and ask. But from personal experience I was arrested on a 12 yr old warrant, and still sentenced.
They certainly should, it is part of their job.
A first probation violation for a DUI could result in consequences such as increased probation terms, additional fines, community service, or even incarceration. It's important to comply with all probation conditions to avoid further legal trouble. Seeking legal advice from a defense attorney experienced in DUI cases is recommended.
Yes, you will have the opportunity, but you should have notified the court ASAP of your inability rather than let it run on so long.
YES!!!!. I cannot stress this enough. Its is ALL up to the P.O. and somewhat of your parents. ADDED: PO's do have a lot of power, but it can depend on WHAT the violation was that caused the VOP. If it was simply a "technical" violation of your restrictions (e.g.- missed a meeting - travelled out of state - etc) the PO should be capable of handling that. However, if the VOP was caused by your committing another offense, your PO can not make that "go away." Why don't you simply ask your PO?
You will receive what is called a "page two" while in jail. So you will have to wait another cycle in jail to then see a judge on the new charge of probation violation, after you've already seen the judge for the assault charge. So if you see a judge every 24 hours for every violation, it'd be two days.
pay any thing you can every day. When ever you pay the warrant is vacated for that day.
Probation if the judge isn't an ***hole
no they do not have to show you all they need is the search warrant. But what you should have done is to see the warrant. Sorry
Your probation officer should not have access to your medical records unless you have signed a notice of consent. If you have not signed a notice of consent, and your PO is accessing your medical records, this is a HIPPA violation, a violation of Federal law, a felony, one you have not committed.
