Will an out of state probation officer find out about a drunk in public?

Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
You should hire an attorney to handle the out-of-state ticket immediately. It's possible that your probation officer won't find out about the out-of-state ticket if you get it reduced to a lesser offense. But if you just plead guilty to the out-of-state ticket, the conviction of "Drunk in Public" will be reported on your criminal record and your probation officer will see it. It's up to you, but in general it's always best to tell your probation officer about violations before they find out about it on their own.

What am I looking at without a lawyer

Tristan Nicolas Legrande
Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
DUI/DWI lawyer at LeGrande Law
You're in luck, you don't need to find out what you are looking at without a lawyer, because you are entitled to one if you cannot afford it. Umlawful carry of a weapon is a class A misdemeanor, up to 1yr in jail, up to a $4k fine. Assault family violence is a class A misdemeanor as well, unless there is an allegation of choking, then it is a 3rd degree felony, 2 to 10 yrs in prison, up to a $10k fine. If you decide to proceed without an attorney and represent yourself pro se? You are looking at the same potential punishments as if you had an attorney, but the outcome of your case may end up much worse. No one is wise to represent themselves in a criminal case. If you cannot afford a lawyer, a court appointed lawyer is your best bet.    Good luck.
