Violation of Probation

Question: Fiance charged with violation of probation for non-reporting in lawrenceville, georgia. Served 34 days so far without a court date. Parole officer promised 2 court dates in which he has yet to follow through with placing it on the court docket. Is this proper procedure? How much time until he is released?

Answer: Is what proper procedure? For the probation officer to not follow through on a promise? Legally, it is fine. Morally, it should also be fine, since your fiance does not follow through on his promise to report to probation. No one knows how much time to his release, because no oneknows what the judge may do. May I suggest hiring an attorney to get him out? Just a suggestion.

About Me

I hung a shingle in February 2000, because I saw that individuals charged with criminal offenses were being underserved by the attorneys practicing criminal law. Since February 2000, I have represented more than two thousand criminal clients. I only practice criminal law, but I do everything from violations of probation to Supreme Court appeals. There are few attorneys under the age of sixty that have my level of experience. I have tried more than two hundred major felony jury trials. I have tried more than fifty misdemeanor jury trials. In Philadelphia as a prosecutor, I tried more than two thousand bench trials. I have conducted more than three thousand preliminary hearings and bond hearings. Yet, I still have the energy at forty-five to serve my current clients. There is nothing that will occur in a courtroom that I have not experienced before. When you are looking for an attorney, experience is everything.
