| I was granted early termination of probation, but violated in the mean time. What now? |
Here's a quick summary of my situation. I got put on 1 year house
arrest in June '08. So my original termination date is June '09. In
February of '09, I filed a motion for early termination. That motion
was granted, so my new termination date was March '09. Well, in between
the motion that was granted and my new termination date, I violated. At
the hearing of that violation, the judge modified my house arrest by
adding 6 months with no early termination. Does that 6 months start
with my March '09 termination date, or does it start from my original
termination date (June '09)? Here I am getting ready to get of house
arrest in September (6 months after March) and my probation officer
tells me that I don't get off until December (6 months after June). She
says that the VOP vacated that motion I got granted. Can somebody
PLEASE help.
FloridaDUIPRO.com answered: the best way to get this question answered is to ask the judge's
secretary to set a violation of probation status. ask the judge whether the extra time
will be added to the end of the original termination date or the
amended termination date. my suspicion is that, since you violated, the
order allowing early termination was voided by the judge at the vop
hearing wherein the additional time was imposed.
