Is it possible to opt out of felony probation and if so what are the consequences?

Richard Francis Sweeney
Answered by attorney Richard Francis Sweeney (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Richard F. Sweeney, Attorney at Law
There is no "opting out" of felony probation or any other probation. You must fully comply with all the rules of probation. However, you could bring to the attention of your probation officer how well you are doing and ask if you could attend probation appointments less often or complete probation supervision early. I don't think that will happen at this point because you have only completed 1 year of 5, but it can not hurt to ask. There are also other factors like whether your urine shows you are not taking drugs.

Is it possible to have a non-violent federal felony expunged?

Philip Daniel Hache
Answered by attorney Philip Daniel Hache
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Phil Hache
Hi, I specialize in California State expungements not federal expungements, so my answer here is not authority on the matter. At this time, it's my understanding that expungements for federal convictions are for the most part only available if it was a simple possession charge and you were under 21 at the time of your arrest. This is not the case for felony convictions in California State, which I handle. As for Felony expungements, I know Congressman Steve Cohen introduced a bill called "Fresh Start" that if passed would allow for federal expungements in more circumstances. I believe the bill was introduced in June 2010, but I do not think it passed, but I am not sure what the status of the bill is at this point. I am checking in with my local congressman for an update on that bill though, and waiting for a response. Sorry I can not answer your question definitively at this time.

What can I do if I did not know that my license was suspended?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
If the only reason for the suspension is an unpaid court fine, then simply pay the fine. If no charges were filed as a result of the officer stopping you, then as soon as you pay the fine, the court clerk should release any hold on your license and you will be eligible for reinstatement wit DOL. If you did get cited for driving while license suspended, still pay off the fines. When you go to court, show the court that all fines have been paid. As long as your record is relatively clean (no history of driving with suspended license), then the court may either reduce or possibly dismiss the charge.
