Can I get into any legal trouble if I sent a fax containing my ex spouses complete criminal background to his job?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
If you have not already done it, you should not. If you have, then they probably would not do anything to you but this could arguable amount to harassment.

Do I still have to my bond for DWI during probation?

Answered by attorney Dennis Marston Slate
Criminal Law lawyer at Slate Associates Attorneys at Law
That is completely up to the judge that sentenced you to probation. You need to have your attorney ask the judge if this is supposed to be a condition of your probation or not.

What is the typical sentencing.

Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
There is no such thing as a typical sentence. Criminal history, the facts of the case and any rehabilitation that is relevant are critical. The terms are structured during negotiation with the D.A. and in some instances the Judge.
