“When bad things happen to good people”


If you were placed on probation and have received notice that you will be violated, please take note: You are not entitled to bond on VOP's (violation of Probation) and many warrants do not have a bond--- thus you may have to stay in jail until your court date or even longer. However, there is a way to avoid this.

In certain cases, we can file a Motion to set the capias (legal terminology which commonly refers to a warrant that “comes from the bench”) aside and allow us to appear in court together, without the necessity of being arrested.

If you have already been served with your VOP warrant and the case is pending, there are many things you should know. For example, unlike your normal criminal charge, a VOP does not carry with it an entitlement to a jury trial. Should you decide you want a “trial” on the VOP, then the judge will sit not only as the judge, but the jury as well. The burden for the state is also different. Call us today for a free consultation and receive more information on your VOP! 904.858.9818.
