Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

Do you mean banishment? If you were banished, and your sentence is over, you can go back. When your friend (not you) gets you into trouble, you should be ready for a punishment twice as bad as anyone else. Why? Because you were banished. But returning is not prohibited.

Your question is an interesting one. I am curious as to whether you agreed to never return to Georgia or if you were merely required to stay away during the term of your probation. In any case, a sentence requiring a permanent ban on your travel would seem to violate your constitutional rights.

In the future, always consult a lawyer before entering into a plea. If, by chance, you run into trouble in the future you need to make sure that if you accept a plea deal, that the terms are acceptable. Alternatively, if you are sentenced, your lawyer should work to ensure that the sentence is not excessive and/or unconstitutional.
