Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey

violate conditional discharge

I was convicted and given a conditional discharge in June 2006. I have been arrested three times during the year long probationary period. One of the arrests resulted in a dismissal and the other two were dropped down to town ordinances. Now, the town which gave me the conditional discharge has me coming back to court for violation of its terms. Is this possible since I was not convicted of any crime?

It all depends on what you were charged with and what you pled guilty to.

Re: violate conditional discharge

Yes it is possible. You don't have to be charged with a crime to violate CD or any other type of probation. Getting the two TO's is probably a violation of a CD although it is rare for anyone to ever file a violation for it. I suggest you consult with an attorney as soon as possible to fight the violation.

My initial consultations are always free, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss your case.
