Will I be reinstated on my first probation violation if I failed urinalysis?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)

It depends on the judge and what your probation officer is recommending. Most judges and probation officers treat failed drug tests very seriously. The judge could sentence you to jail, increase your probation, add to your probation conditions, or revoke your probation and resentence you up to the maximum for the offense that put you on probation. There is probably a good chance that you could do some jail time. I would strongly urge you to consult with an experienced criminal attorney in your area that handles probation violations.

I think that there is a strong probability that you will be serving some time, either as an adult or juvenile. Exactly how long will spend on a number of circumstances and your prior infractions.

Can I sue the police or newspaper for printing false information on me saying I did a crime I didn't do?

I would first contact the newspaper and ask them why they printed the story. I would then demand a retraction from them. If they do not wish to cooperate, consult with an experienced civil attorney in your area that handles defamation cases. It might be a good idea to consult with a defamation attorney anyway.
