Help from a Saint Lucie County Violation of Probation Lawyer
As complex a minefield as the criminal justice system can be when dealing with any criminal charge, the complexities multiply geometrically when you face allegations of violating the general or special terms of your probation. A citizen placed on probation can be burdened with a variety of both special and general conditions. Judges can impose scores of potential conditions on a convicted citizen. To see how much discretion judges have in imposing probationary sentences loaded with conditions, review Ch. 948.03, Fla. Stat.—and that list is in no way exhaustive. Due process of law precipitously decreases when the government alleges a violation of probationary conditions. A Saint Lucie County violation of probation lawyer could help you navigate these complex rules, protect your rights, and fight for the best possible outcome.
In the Treasure Coast, even for a minor transgression of the probationary rules typically results in an arrest warrant, NO BOND, NO JURY TRIAL, and jail or prison at the end of this ‘rats nest’ of procedural and substantive rules designed to ‘fast track’ the disappearance of a citizen’s civil liberties.
