QUESTION
Can the courts retry me on a case I served 6 months on already after I signed a plea deal?
Asked on Jan 19th, 2013 on Criminal Law - Texas
More details to this question:
I was never questioned on my version of what happened. I wasn't breathalysed or read my rights until booking. I believe I'm being harassed from a distance from the county and city.

You can not be brought to trial on charges that you already plead to and were sentenced on. Note that if you violate probation, you could be further penalized.

If you pled to the charge and served your sentence then under most circumstances they can't do anything to you.

Once you enter a plea bargain, the case is over. They cannot re-charge you on the SAME case, and you will have to follow your agreement.
