Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
sentenced on a case that has been terminated
Iwould like to know what can be done about a sentence that was recently recieved.The probation my husband has been on since 2002 was terminated in 2002.We were unaware of this he was violated on probation and sent to prison.I need to know how can one violated something that does not exist?Is there a motion that he can file to a higher court and have them look into it?He has reported to probation for the last 5 years and paid fees monthly.

Re: sentenced on a case that has been terminated
Your husband has 30 days from the date the judge signs the judgment sentencing him to prison to appeal the sentence.
There are other motions that can be filed as well, though they have a very, very low chance of success. You should speak with a criminal lawyer.
