Legal Answers
- Q. How can I get a new lawyer to get my husband a bond set with proof of why he missed court.
- A: You have the right to retain a new attorney to replace your present one and that Attorney will be able to file a notice of appearance for your husband and a motion to set bond. It is possible that your husband will still have to remain in jail until the September 1 court date but at least the motion can get filed.
- Q. I failed a drug test while on misdemeanor probation. I left state it’s been 6 yrs what’s the limit of statutes?

- Q. If im on probation and get a misdemeanor vandalism warrant when i turn myself in will I be able to bond out before vop
- A: It all depends on the agency with whom you are on probation. If they check the arrest records regularly and act quickly, the VOP may issue before you get to bond out. The commissioner or magistrate could check your record when making your bond and see you are actively on probation and notify the PO and raise your bond. There is no way to answer your question easily. Best bet is to hire an attorney and have the attorney get a deal in place with your PO for you to turn yourself in on the Vandalism and the VOP warrant so you are not throwing bad money after good.
