Rep Power: 0 | |  Is it worth taking back to court?
The case number for the individual that I will be referring to is: 07015738CF10A
He was recently given a year probation for traffic tickets- "speeding", improper lane change etc... this wasnt his first traffic violation so he was considered habitual. The incident occurred in Broward County but he resides and works in Palm Beach County. He has been informed that he should quit his job since it is not in Broward County and also has to be subjected to random drug test etc. Violation of his probation would get him a mandatory 5 year sentence for traffic tickets!!!!  . He is not a criminal has no prior criminal past, supports his family, has never drinked or done drugs.
Was wondering if it would be worth to take this back to court so that his probation could be lessened or eliminated? |

Sounds a little accessive... You sure there isn't a little more to the story there? Was there a drug charge involved?? Did he have a lawyer....?

There were no additional charges, he doesnt do drugs nor does he drink. He did have a lawyer however according to him she did nothing to help him he spoke for himself while she stood there stareing at him. He voluntarily took the probation because he was tired of going back and forth to court which he now regrets. |

I guess the random drug test is just part of the probation? I thought they only did that if it was a drug relates change.
