A violation is a violation. If he's on probation or parole, then those things are serious. Do you actually know what he is on parole for or just what he told you?
I live in Texas and this state takes ANY violation seriously. The stipulations set forth in his parole agreement are meant to be followed to the letter. If he's not supposed to say Hi to another person, he better NOT say Hi! Could be that he wasn't supposed to cross state lines. In that case, being in MI is a violation in itself.
Depending on the terms of his parole, he may be in for some serious jail time. It could even be as much as the maximum punishment for the crime he commited.
He will be able to get a public defender here if he can't afford an attorney.My husband is getting exteidicted from MI to TX on a mesdomeanor PO violation, I need Leagal AID and advice?
Perhaps you should consult with an attorney.My husband is getting exteidicted from MI to TX on a mesdomeanor PO violation, I need Leagal AID and advice?
what's exteidicted? excited? he's excited to be going?
He should have the option to either consent to or to oppose the extradition. If he opposes the extradition, Texas will need to show good cause why he should be sent to Texas, it is not automatic. On the flip side, if he fights the extradition and loses, he will probably get a stiffer penalty for violating his probation/parole than if he returned voluntarily. It does not seem fair that a person is punished more harshly for demanding that he receive due process but that is how it usually goes.
How much time is your husband looking at if he is convicted of violating probation/parole?
So, you come to a website full of non-lawyers...most of whom are kids who have no idea what you are talking about? Wise move. Personally, I would have been stupid enough to go talk to a lawyer...but that is just me.
contact the courts in the relevant jurisdictions and ask for the public defender office.
They don't normally extradite people on a misdemeanor charge.
Hire an attorney.
MI? TX? PO?
More likely is he's being extradited because of a felony. States seldom cough up the money to extradite when the bench warrants cash fine can be jacked up high enough to cover the misdemeanor.
However, since you are probably confusing PO (parole officer) with PV (parole violation). I'm willing to bet he's a parolee who blew his parole and committed another crime then fled the jurisdiction.
He's a parolee he's done. The extradition is not to stand trial for charges it's to go back to jail to finish out his sentence during which time he will be taken to court to face his additional charges.
