Q. What determines how much time you serve if the sentence is ran concurrent

April 27, 2022

A: If you have two sentences running concurrently and one is for a longer period than the other, the longer period is what guides the sentencing . For example, if one charge carries a sentence for 6 months and the other charge carries a sentence for 9 months and the Judge orders them to run concurrently, your confinement period would be for 9 months, unless you qualified for good time credit or something of that nature.

Q. Hi I wanted to know how can I get into another program for mental health on felony probation without going to jail

April 27, 2022

A: This answer depends on how long you have been on probation, what types of violation(s) you received, as well as the recommendation of the State/Probation Officer. Often, before a Court determines whether a program is a more appropriate placement than jail/prison, they will consider any number of factors.

Q. What is the price for a 40-6-241 in Taylor County, GA

April 27, 2022

A: If you are asking what is the fine associated with this charge, you will need to call the clerk to see what the posted charge is. If, however, you are asking what an attorney would charge, you should contact the Firm directly. Some firms, like mine, give free quotes for traffic representation.
