serving probation in a different county
I recently got a second DUI (outside five
years) where according to what I have
read will not allow me to receive a
hardship license. I have come to the
conclusion that I might have to move to
the county that I work in so that I can
survive. If I moved from Pinellas where
the charge is pending and moved to
Hillsborough would I be able to serve
any DUI duties like DUI school and
probation in that county instead of in
Pinellas?

Re: serving probation in a different county
Yes, you should be allowed to transfer your probation to any county in Florida to complete the dictates of your probation. Should you violate, however, you will be incarcerated locally and then transported back to the original county.
