Violation of Probation

You are in violation of your probation and that means you are facing jail time. The court gave you a certain amount of time to enroll in the alcohol school. The court likely set a date for you to show proof you had enrolled. The court may have issued a bench warrant for your arrest when you failed to comply. What this means is that you may have a warrant for your arrest. The bail could be anywhere from $2500 to $25,000 and that means if you are arrested you will sit in jail unless you can post the bail amount.
The wisest thing for you to do is to retain an experienced DUI defense firm who goes to the court where your case was handled on a regular basis. They can attempt to ask the court to give you more time to enroll and complete the class without having you arrested and sentenced to jail time for violating the courts order.
