Ok, I got an owi about 6 or 5 months ago I have never been in trouble before. I received a restricted license but I could have had my full license back on 8/4/2011. Any way I found out a couple of weeks ago I have to leave my residence by the 29, witch is my 21 birthday. I work Monday through Saturday to pay my bills and my probation officer. But last sat. I got off work at about 9 I drove about 30 minutes away becuase my friend that is moving in with me lives in that area. His phone was disconnected and he had the direct deposit for out apartment. I had to get it becuase I had to be put on the apartment the next day I stayed for about 30 minutes, got it and left and I got pulled over right down his street. They gave me a misdomeanor ticket and I called and informed my probation officer first thing Monday morning. I'm not a bad person I'm like creaking out...it was ethier get the deposit or have no roof over my head in a week I took one risk and got cuaght I realize its my fualt and that I wasn't thinking...I've paid my fines a lil every month about 400 dollars in two months plus a 300 dollar class...I've done everything they have asked. but now I violated my probation, if I go to jail ill lose everything ill get discharged from the national guard and fired from my job. But I c people all the time that do worst stuff then me and get away with it, I dont drink no more I don't party, I work, go to college, come home sleep. I'm trying very hard to better myself but I'm scared cuz of a decision I thought was good was wrong I just find want to not have a place to live....any help is appreciated becuase if I go to jail my life is literally over.

It really depends on the Judge, the Court and your attorney. It is certainly a case that could result in jail time, but I have beat these. If you are in the 35th district court, a am very familiar with that Court. Visit me at kliszlaw.com or call me at (313)402-0853. Tim Klisz
