Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

Can I really be arrested without chance of bond if I am on probation and am charged with something that was really no case to begin with. I have had lawyers review evidence and have informed me that the charge is wrong. Does that mean I have to sit in jail until court just to find out I didnt really have to go to begin with. Is there a way to get around a violation hold if the evidence from the violating charge is obviously a false accusation and I am innocent. Is there away to negotiate with officials due to the circumstances to maybe even atleast get offered a chance to bond atleast until I get the violating charges dropped or dismissed?

Why ask if it "can" happen? It apparently did happen, so that question is answered. If lawyers have reviewed evidence, why ask for a guess on the internet from lawyers who know nothing about the case? Why did you not hire one of the lawyers? People charged with serious crimes (especially when they have a criminal history) hire competent criminal lawyers to represent them.

I'm not sure how you're posting from jail, but you need to retain one of the lawyers you say you spoke to. Otherwise expect to sit in jail while no one helps you; when you're in jail you need counsel.

Retain the lawyers that you had review it, and see what happens. If you trust their assessment, then retain them. And after you are sitting in jail, review my website on attorneys that tell clients what they want to hear, under how to locate the right attorney: www.lawrencelewispc.com

Because you think it is nothing, does not make it nothing. You will be arrested on the violation of probation, and you will have a court date. The speed in getting that court date, and getting the case dropped will depend on the skill of your attorney.
