Can I appeal a violation of probation charge?

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
If you file the appeal within 30 days of the revocation you may be able to appeal the judge's decision to revoke the probation. If you are outside of the 30 day window in which to perfect (i.e. timely file) an appeal, you might be able to gain relief for this person by hiring an attorney to file a writ of habeas corpus.

About my warrant

Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
Most counties have a juvenile system in place where these cases are handled. A lawyer can help you to resolve the problem without great damage to you but one or both of your parents need to be involved.

Can police search my vehicle without a warrant?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
If a car is determined to be abandoned, the police can and will have the vehicle towed. Once in police custody, the police can perform what is called an "inventory search" of the vehicle for safety purposes which is legal as long as they are in lawful possession of your vehicle at the time it is brought in. It really is of no consequence or concern unless they found something incriminating. If that is the case, have an experienced criminal attorney review the case to determine if the search was valid.
