QUESTION

Converting community control to regular probation

Asked on Sep 22nd, 2015 on Parole and Probation - Florida
More details to this question:
I am currently on community control. I have satisfied all my requirements and my court documents state that I could file for early term. Once I met all my obligations, including my restitution, which I had 40 months to pay but did it in less than a year, my officer drafted a letter to the judge recommending my transfer to regular probation. However, the very next week I was assigned to a new officer and my old officer accidently sent the letter to the wrong judge. My current officer is not doing anything to help rectify the situation and I'm not sure what to do next.

You have two options if you want to either convert your community control to probation or try to terminate you community control. You can either write a motion requesting your community control be converted to probation, or submit a motion ask for early termination of your case. Your other option is hire an attorney to file a motion with the court asking to convert your community control or requesting early termination of your case. You best option is to hire an attorney to file a motion with the court who will be prepared to argue that you have completed all your conditions and are eligible for early termination.  Your attorney will be able to communicate with probation and the State Attorney in an attempt to terminate your probation.
