Legal Answers
519 Questions Answered
Q. Will a blue warrant in Texas be lifted upon discharge?
A: If you mean discharge from parole, you should be OK once your Parole/Sentence has ended. The only way I would be worried for you is if the Blue Warrant you mention, is based upon a new criminal charge or Indictment.

You would probably know best on that subject.

Good Luck!

I hope this helps.
Q. Legal advice: Husband in jail for family violence, mental illness, no-contact order?
A: You need a lawyer to help you. His dementia can definitely cause erratic behavior and aggressive behavior. If you have any doctors notes or reports stating his status with dementia, that would go a long way with a judge. I would like to know what county you are in and which judge you have.

His dementia issues may help you get a bond reduction or other consideration.

Your lawyer would talk to the DA and hopefully work something out for treatment and diagnosis, to drop the charges, or hole them until there is a diagnosis.

A lawyer could also file for a mental exam of your husband, to see if he is fit to face the charges.

My law office, or any other on JUSTIA, would be a good start.

Q. Probation officer calls instead of knocking, causing issues.
A: Your PO can call you anytime. They can check on you every day if they feel it is necessary to do so. Most people on probation would prefer a call instead of a home visit.

If you think the calls will continue, then I suggest you get a phone with a loud ringer and vibrator. There is also a flashing light ring alert that deaf people, that you put on your wall, and it flashes a red light so you know the phone is ringing. You could also set-up an AI bot to answer your calls from your PO, and they would probably not know whether it was you on the phone.

I hope this helps.
