What happens if you just forget to call and check in with Pre-Trial Services? ~ Chosen as Best Answer on AVVO ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1

Q:    If you forget to call in once for Pre-Trial (ROR) Services in Pinellas County what should I do? How will this affect me?  It is my first week since being released on ROR and I missed my first weekly pre-trial call in by 2 hours. I’m not sure what I need to do now and how this will affect me. It was an honest mistake that won’t happen again but I’m concerned about how this will affect me going forward and what I can do to make it up.

A:    Chosen as “Best Answer” by Asker on www.AVVO.com:

Locally licensed lawyer

For questions involving state laws, lawyers who are licensed in the same state as the asker are often able to provide more relevant answers than out-of-state lawyers.

For questions involving federal laws (e.g., immigration or patents), this distinction is unimportant.

Answered . All you can do now is to call at your first opportunity.

In fact is there’s a voicemail system then leave a message now.

As to what can happen: Simple… your PTR may well be revoked.

PTR is a privilege, and the price tag for freedom is being responsible… no matter what.

Talk to your PTR supervisor. Beg and grovel. Be humble and apologetic. And pray they don’t bounce you.

Wishing you luck and hoping that I have been helpful in answering your question.

First, second and third: No attorney-client relationship exists by virtue of any Q&A with Michael A. Haber, Esq. on Avvo. Fourth: Anything that you post on Avvo (or on similar sites) or on any social media is by its nature public. It is essentially an admission / confession and can be introduced into evidence as a statement against your interest in a subsequent legal proceeding. Once posted you lose any reasonable expectation of privacy, so, as this is an open forum (with no privilege attached), please be extra careful when considering what to post online (forewarned is forearmed.)

When it comes to the subject of “Cops, Courts and Constitutions” you should always have a skilled and experienced criminal defense attorney who is focused on serving your interests.  While we can’t stop the cops from arresting you, as your legal counsel Michael A. Haber, PA will ensure that your rights are respected from the moment that representation begins and that any abuses which may have occurred beforehand are remedied.
