You might have an ineffective assistance of counsel claim. You should look it up in the law library and if so challenge on appeal or through habeas proceedings. You also need to send a letter to the sate bar and ask them to pursue disciplinary action. Somebody who won't even see you does not need to be praticing law.\n\nJust my two cents

He probably violated his parole, or committed another infraction, or both.\n\nBest of luck and God bless.

I'm not an attorney but, I'm qualified to answer this question as an ex-con, who has spent time behind the walls, and then survived three revocation hearings on a suspended sentence I recieced after being in prison. \n\nSo let me tell you what has happened to get you to this point and I've never met you. You have most likely failed a U.A., failed to appear as directed, haven't paid fees, court cost or resition, caught a new charge or failed to go to couseling, A.A. or do community service. Something along those lines. \n\nWhen that happened you P.O. send a affidavit ( a sworn statement) to the D.A.'s office. They have filed what is called an "application to accerate" and are asking for a hearing (called a revocation hearing) to take away your probation status. \n\nHere is what is going to happen. Nothing for a while, the process sometimes moves slowly, meaning it may take the D.A's office a few weeks to get the paperwork filed but, I assure you they have'nt forgotten about it. \n\nAn amended affidavit, is an affidavit that has been modified since the original was taken. The D.A. has found something "materially wrong" with your P.O.'s affidavit OR\nthey have amended the original affidavit to "include some other infraction" they aledge you have done. \n\nOnce the application to accerate is filed the judge will issue a arrest warrent and you will have to post bond again to bond you over, as a means of guarenteing you will appear for the revocation hearing.\n\nHere is how you stay out of jail 1) don't catch a new case 2) call a bonds man, once or twice a week and have him check to see if a warrent has been issued. 3) when it is issued, you go to the courthouse with the bonds men and surrender yourself as he post bond. They make take you in custady for a short while, in order to go through the booking process. \n\nIf you don't get booked in when he post bond, then they will do it when you make your inital appearace at the arrangment hearing. Either way, you should be home for dinner that night and you can plan your schedual to be taken in to custady for a few hours, rather than being picked up without a minuted notice. \n\nUntil, the warrent is issued here is what you do. Keep reporting in to you P.O. and following the other terms of your probation. BUT BEFORE YOU GO TO YOUR PROBATION OFFICE ALWAYS, FIRST CALL THE BONDSMAN AND MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE WARRENT. Your P.O. will have you picked up in his office, if you show up there, with a current warrent out for your arrest. If he tells you otherwise, don't believe him. It is a trap.\n\nBut, you can't quit checking in, just because you know one day this hearing is going down. However, if you have an appointment with him and find out you have a warrent don;t go. Call enstead and tell him that you can't make your appointment, because you have a warrent out. But you want him know what is going on. And you are working with a bondsman and will see him next week, once you are bound over.\n\nThe way you beat the case is to correct, whatever it is they aledge you have done or not done. If you haven't been paying fees, start paying fees. If you haven't been reporting, start reporting. If you have a hot U.A. start going to A.A. and get someone to sign your paper that you attended or better yet go to treatment. If you have any new charges and don't have a substance abuse problem, I don't know what you do. But if you have a new charge, a DUI, Public Drunk or possession charge you have to take drastic measures and go to 30 day primary inpaient treatment. \n\nYou can't wait until later and try to bargain with it. Judges don't bargain. You have to show your willingness up front, with no gurantees of lenancy. That is just the way it works. But, it works.\n\nYou want as many continuances that your attorney can get the Judge to agree to. Time is on your side in this situation. You want to put

There is a wonderful support and information group at http://prisontalk.com\nSomeone there will have your answer.\nI've got a "someone special" locked up, too, and this group has helped me a great deal.

The sentence will be determined at his trial/court date with the judge.  Right now there is probably a bench warrant out on him, which means he could be picked up and held at any time.  \n\nHe needs to get an attorney and contact the courts.  It will just get worse for him if he doesn't.

I just dealt with a case like this where an individual was told not to call on go near another person, they filled an order of protection and he ws not present.  He didn't even know it existed.  It was his own mother and step dad.  They lured him to the apartment complex by telling his aunt that his property was on the stoop.  He picked it up.  The next day he was just walking down the street and was picked up by police based on a description and arrested for violation a restraining order, fined and arrested.  I got him released ROR argueing the same points as some of your answers listed above but the short of it is he is going to county lock up if he doesn't beat the charge.  lawyers fees are expensive.  he can now only afford a public defender and they are way over worked, under paid and not to bright, I would expect probation or 30 days incarceration at county lock up and if you are not careful you will receive the same.  After the hearing the constable or someone will make one attempt to serve you and that is it.  You need to obey the order or face arrest.  Unless you have unlimited money for attorneys fee you shouldn't fight it.  Or you might be using the public pretenders office.  Work this out through a third party and be apologetic and humble.  Get this order dropped or you will run into this person and do some time.  This case was in Upstate NY but the laws are very common throughout the US and some places might add stalking.  Big jail time!  watch your step, the law is on the filers side, file a counter order asap.

Get in touch with the court system or have your lawyer contact them- see if it is on your record.  Your lawyer could best answer this question but I believe the answer is no- you were not convicted of anything but detained till  released.  Good luck.

You most likely have a bench warrent out for you.. Best thing to do is call the court house first thing in the morning and explain the situation to them and ask them what you should do.. Honesty is the best policy.

Be clear, concise and respectful. Try not to go longer than one page and be sure to provide your contact information... he cannot respond if he has no way to reach you.\nI've had cause to contact a number of prison officials and have always gotten a reply, even when the result is not what I hope for.

Your best bet is to contact the facility where he is incarcerated, ask to speak to the Jail Booking Clerk.

It sounds as if this is a tenant issue.  The prison, somehow, owns the building which the social club utilizes.  It comes down to the facts that the owner can give reasonable notice and then expect to evict (or change) the use of their building.\n\nThat you have been functioning happily for such a long time would tend to make me think there is a moral obligation but I do not see the point for a legal one.\n\nI agree with you about not bothering with court for another reason than the little money you have.  At court, really no one wins.  I wonder if there is a way for mediation.  As another suggestion, contact a local civil official like a representative or something, someone who might speak or write a letter on your behalf.\n\nThat you do service for prison officers is noble and if you can suggest that a local community official act on your behalf may be the way to go.

Call the Clerk of the Court in the county where your hearing is scheduled.  Just call 411 and ask the operator for the number to the Whatever County Circuit Court Clerk's Office.  Have your citation in hand as the clerk will need the citation number.  Ask them to reschedule you because you cannot get off work that day or whatever.  That's how it's done.  Maybe they'll let you reschedule, maybe they won't.  If they don't, make sure you go or you'll have a warrant issued for your arrest.\n\nGood luck!\n\nDaniel\niPowerGRFX Web Designers\nhttp://www.ipowergrfx.com\nhttp://www.publicadjuster.com

Go to the legal library and look up your charges in the appeals section for your area.  Find a lawyer who took a case like yours and won. Don't wast you time and life in jail by picking a lawyer out of the phone book, he will just take your money.  The clerk at the library will help you.  Good luck, and remember it makes no difference if you did it or not unless you have DNA to prove you didn't.
