Facts on Violation of Probation Case:
Amber D. was on probation for her second DUI charge when she thought that she was doing well enough to slowly leave the treatment world. She had previously struggled with addiction, but had gotten a new job and boyfriend, and felt like her life was on a better track. Amber began self-medicating again when she tested positive on a drug test. Amber was charged with a violation of probation.
Strategy of Attack on Violation of Probation Case:
We have known Amber and her family for years, so she hired us immediately after the violation. The judge decided to issue a no-bond warrant, meaning that Amber could be arrested and have to stay in jail. We filed a motion for an in-court surrender, where Amber came in herself to face the judge. Through negotiations with the prosecutor, we were able to prove that Amber had done everything else right while on probation.
