Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

possession of a controled substance case from 1998

I want to file for a early termination of probation for a charge I have recieved in November of 1998. This is hindering me from obtaining any substancial employment. I discovered these steps: File a PC 1203.3 petition to have probation terminated early. File a PC 17(b) petition to get felony reduced, and PC 1203.4 petition for expungement. Where would I find these forms? Can they be accessed online?

To my knowledge there are no standard forms for this procedure. However, the probation department may have a form for this procedure. Check with the probation department if they do not have a form or procedure then you would have to retain an attorney to either prepare and file the motion or provide you with some direction and assistance.

Typically an attorney prepares from 'scratch' the appropriate motions and petitions in these matters. Contact me if interested in discussing the facts and fees for doing so.
