Probation Violations - Defense Attorney
Macon GA
Many times Attorney Jeffrey N. Powers will find defenses to violations of probation. Never admit to a violation because admitting that you have violated your probation usually eliminates most defenses you may have had. Technical violations are numerous and are often for not filing a monthly report or moving from residence without notifying your supervision officer, or having a positive urinalysis do to use of illegal substances.
Substantive violations of probation are those that involve a new criminal offense being charged against you. It is wise to consult with an attorney immediately if you are charged with a probation violation.
Always report to your supervision officer as scheduled. If you have been arrested you must truthfully fill out your monthly report. Failing to report and/or lying on your monthly report are sure ways to being found in violation of your probation.
Falsifying a report is a quick way to be found in violation and sentenced to incarceration. Always fill out monthly reports honestly.
