If I go into rehabilitation ASAP and test positive in rehabilitation, can my probation officer violate me?

Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Jeffrey L. Pollock
Regardless of whether you have been violated, it is good to complete rehab. Regardless of whether you complete rehab, the P.O. will have to prove that you breached the terms of your Probation to violate you.

If you are arrested for shoplifting, can the store keep items of yours that did not come from their store?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
Items can be seized to hold as evidence. You'll get to make your arguments in court for return. No lawyer is going to tell you to plead guilty. When arrested or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a search or confession be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? A little free advice: exercise the 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and do NOT talk to police or anyone about the case except an attorney. Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. While this isn't a 'capital case', you certainly face fines and potential jail, so handle it right. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate. If it is your first offense, if you have a clean record, your attorney MAY be able to get a deal that avoids jail, and avoids a conviction on your record.
