If I was charged with misdemeanor possession of cannabis in Florida, and I had ajudification withheld, will it show up on a background check?

David William Olson
Answered by attorney David William Olson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Offices of David W. Olson
Yes, it will show up during a search of the public record.  Fortunately the indication there will be that adjudication was withheld.  However, because that doesn't mean much to most people, you should consider pursuing the sealing of your record.  If you have no prior criminal convictions you would likely succeed, which would make your record invisible to the public.  You would further be allowed, lawfully, to deny ever having been charged or arrested, in most contexts.

How do you get 2 VOPs on your first violation?

Criminal Law lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
You actually did not give any facts related to your question. And then asked another question. It goes like this, he has subjected himself to being sentenced to the entire amount of time in prison that he was facing before being placed on probation. He needs a criminal defense attorney for this.

How long can a driver's liscence be suspended for by law? What (if any) conversion table is used to figure out restitution amount =loss be if liscen

Michael Roy Morris
Answered by attorney Michael Roy Morris (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Morris & Morris, P.A.
Some offenses carry with them automatic license suspensions. If that is not causing a suspension, then it might be that whatever plea bargain or sentence you entered into almost certainly included court costs and restitution, non-payment of which can lead to suspension of your driver's license. You can check the status of your driver's license at https://services.flhsmv.gov/dlcheck/ Once you know why your license is suspended, you can either seek a hardship exception to allow you to drive for work purposes, or work out a payment arrangement if your license has been suspended because of non-payment. Good luck!

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
