Can my PO clear the warrant if I have a probation violation for defaulting payments but I had sent two payments out after?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
In some instances the PO can have the warrant cleared. From what you are saying, it sounds like your issue is only financial. If so, ,by bringing the payments current, the PO may be able to get the warrant recalled. If the matter has already been scheduled for a hearing, the judge may still want to see you. Ultimately, it is up to the judge. The amount of time you would be required to serve, if any, is also up to the judge.

What is "shock probation"? Is it available in Florida?

Jeralyn Elise Merritt
Answered by attorney Jeralyn Elise Merritt (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Jeralyn E. Merritt
Shock probation includes a sentence first to a short term of jail, intended to shock you through exposure to the harsh conditions, followed by probation. The probation period can include a stay in a community facility before you are allowed to return home. It's considered to be a blend of punishment and not-too-much punishment. Florida does have a shock probation program, however, it is called "shock incarceration." It is a structured disciplinary training program within the Department of Corrections. The goal is to instill self-discipline, improve work habits, and improve self-confidence for inmates. When the inmate enters the prison system, he is screened for the program. To participate, he must be free of physical limitations which would preclude engaging in strenuous activity. In addition, factors such as the inmate's criminal history and the possible rehabilitative benefits of "shock" incarceration are considered. The program itself likely will include marching drills, calisthenics, a rigid dress code, work assignments, physical training, training in decision making, drug counseling, education, and rehabilitation. If the inmate successfully completes the program, he is given a release date within 30 days to community supervision. If an inmate fails to satisfactorily complete the program or becomes unmanageable, he may be placed in the general inmate population to complete the remainder of his or her sentence. In some jurisdictions, a sentence of shock probation may be ordered by the sentencing judge at the outset. This often involves a sentence for a term of years with the provision that after a short period such as 60 or 90 days, the offender is removed from jail or prison and allowed to serve the rest on probation. You should consult with an experienced criminal defense lawyer in your jurisdiction to see if the program is available to you and what benefits, if any, you might obtain from it.
