felony probation felony violation-what will happen?
I have a godson whose mother is a convicted felon for forgery/writing checks, and is on felony probation, she was recently arrested, they had a bench warrant out for her arrest. She went to court, plead guilty, and went to court this morning to see what the charges were, they consisted of: usage of alcohol, usage of marijuana, usage of methamphetamines, failure to make curfew, failure to finish counseling, failure to make her rehabilitation...She was originally given 3 years with 2 indeterminant? What ever that means. She ended up with probation, community service, which she hasn't done and restitution that has not been paid. I know she will get jail time, but I am so concerned for her son, my godson and what will happen to him. Any thoughts out there as to what might happen> I need to make accommodations for her little boy. Please anyone with any ideas/thoughts please respond

I just hesitate to uproot him until we know exactly what is going to happen.


I agree, uprooting him now before you know what is going to happen is not necessary and could be harmful but I don't understand what your legal question is - ?

The original question was what this forum feels could be the final outcome as far as what will happen to the mother with her violating her felony probation, did they feel that she would serve time or continue on with probation. I just want to make sure I have everything done that needs to be done for my godson should she have to do serious time. Part of me feels that yes she has violated her probation, but that there are worse criminals out there and the jails are so full, that they would weigh the pros and cons and keep her on probation because she is not a menace to society, she has a drug problem, but she is not violent.

Wow - you're between a rock and a hard place. You obviously really care for her as well as her child. No one can predict what the Court will do but it sounds like she is in severe violation of probation and she'll probably do some jail time.

Wonder if the Judge would consider some type of residential treatment center? Some Courts are more understanding than others.

Does the child actually live with her? Who takes care of him when she's using?
