52 Questions Answered
- Q. Impact of Georgia probation violation on South Carolina probation
- A: One of the many conditions of probation is that the person is not to be rearrested. This is an interesting condition as most people do not want to be rearrested. But with a new charge the probation agent could decide to hold an internal meeting and then could decide to petition the Court for a violation of probation hearing based on this allegation. Just because a person is on probation does not mean that they lose all of their rights and due process. An experienced criminal defense attorney should be able to help work to resolve this issue while protecting your rights.
- Q. Jail time?
- A: Jail time depends on the facts of the case and other circumstances around the arrest. It sounds like you have a great deal of mitigation and possible defenses to at least one of the charges as burglary as an element that may not have evidence to prove it from the information you provided. An experienced criminal defense attorney should be able to review the case and speak with the prosecutor on your behalf to give you advice on resolving the case.
- Q. What is a PPB active warrant in SC?
- A: It sounds like your husband has an FTA (failure to appear) bench warrant which a person cannot bond out of jail on this warrant. Either the FTA warrant must be lifted or the case must be resolved to be released from custody. The "PPB" warrant is either for the Dept of Parole, Pardon, and Probation Board or it is "PPP" which refers to the small business loan that was given during the covid pandemic. An experienced criminal defense attorney should be able to help advise your husband on the best course of action to take in an effort to resolve these issues.
