An unsolved criminal offense on which all known investigative leads have been exhausted (i.e.; A 'cold" case).
If you are on probation and are violated for anything at all you cannot bail on a probation hold i know cause ive been through county and prison systems if you catch a case on a felony you will automatically violate but if they serve you 6months for the violation and your still fighting your controlling case when your violation ends youll be able to bail
it means there is a bench warrant out for their arrest and have constables and police looking for them.
Yes, you can. As a matter of fact, as a minor you can be put on probation for any minor or major criminal infraction. It is solely up to the discretion of the judge hearing the case.
No. A judge has to order that a part of your sentence may be served by probation. A prosecutor can recommend probation on the facts of your case, but that is totally in his or her discretion. And even if probation is recommended by the prosecutor, the judge gets the final say. See a criminal law attorney in your area if you want to try to turn some of your sentence into probation.
An "inactive case" refers to a criminal case in which all known possible investigatvie leads have been exhausted but which has not been 'closed.' A more common phrase in current use is, "cold case."
Judicial actions are divided into the civil (suits by persons against persons) and the criminal (actions by the state against persons). Criminal action (prosecution) is brought against individuals alleged to have violated criminal laws.
It can mean two things. If your probation was "terminated" it usually means that the court ended it short of completion (for some reason) and you are still under the control of the court/criminal justice system, - OR - it could mean that you successfully completed the entire term of your probation and your sentence was served and the case is now concluded. However, in the latter case it is usually referred to as Probation COMPLETED (not terminated). Only YOU know which circumstance applies to you.
If you have no previous criminal record, and the facts of the case warrant the judge offering you that option, he may offer you probation. Remember though, a sentence of probation is STILL a sentence for being found guilty and the charge will always appear on your criminal record.
The commitment issued to the Sheriff is basically the sheet of paper that is handed to him or his department, which officially declares the sentence for the defendant. On probation cases, the defendant is given this paper to get into the probation office upon reporting for the first time. This will tell the probation office the length of probation the defendant has been sentenced.
There are different categories of death. Therefore cases that involve a death may be heard in criminal or civil court depending on the circumstances. A case where a person died as a result of a car accident in which no one violated the law would be heard in civil court. A case in which someone purposely hit and killed someone with their car would be heard in criminal court.
A non-witness violation hearing is a probation violation hearing in which no witnesses are called. Hard evidence will be documented and the defendant, probationer, will have opportunity to offer argument against it, or to offer explanation that might mediate a decision.
