What legal options do you have for a probation that got revoked?
Asked on Jan 13th, 2014 on Criminal Law - Illinois
More details to this question:
My boyfriend had gotten his probation revoked and they gave him two weeks in jail until a hearing for not meeting probation requirements such as failed drug tests, and not attending mental health appointments. I don't know if this will help but this was at Dupage County in Illinois. How much time do you think he may serve what’s the maximum and the minimum? What are his options at the hearing? What do judges typically do when the defendant has his/her probation revoked?
A skilled criminal defense attorney who handles court cases in DuPage County would need to discuss this matter with you &/or your boyfriend in greater detail, & ask both of you many questions, in order to give both of you the complete, proper legal advice you need, & a quote to represent him.? Schedule a consultation ASAP.? Once the matter has been resolved to his & your satisfaction (hopefully), you'll be glad you paid the money to hire an experienced attorney & properly protect his legal rights.
