What Right Do You Have On Probation? When you’re on probation, your rights are extremely limited. The probation officer has significant control over your actions and can report any non-compliance to a judge. To stay out of trouble: - Be proactive: Regularly update your probation officer about where you live, your job status, and your compliance with probation terms. - Stay in touch: Weekly calls or texts to confirm everything is fine can prevent unexpected visits or searches. If you stop communicating, that’s when issues arise. Probation officers don’t need a warrant to check on you if they suspect you’re not following the rules. Communication is key to a smooth probation period. Send us a message for a free consultation! #ProbationTips #KnowYourRights #ArizonaLaw #CriminalDefense #Criminallawyer #Phoenix #Arizona #Probation

Today, former President Trump’s probation interview is scheduled as part of the standard sentencing process for felony convictions in NYS. During these interviews, the probation officer will gather information about the individual's life, the nature of their offense, and strategies for future compliance. This process informs the probation terms and is shared with the judge for sentencing considerations.

THE PRESENTENCE REPORT (PSR), NARRATIVE, YOUR PROBATION OFFICER, AND JUDGE INDICTED AND FACING PRISON I’m Dr. Marc Blatstein. I’ve been where you are and am here to help you on your journey. With work, I got my license reinstated and my career back. For more info., check out PPRSUS.com. ·      Prison is Temporary. Knowledge and Preparation will help build back the confidence you’ll need to get through this process. ·     Since you’ve heard that the Feds have been asking questions, their case against you is mostly complete, approaching a 98% Conviction Rate. ·     Hiring a legal team doesn’t just mean they have experience; they also need a proven track record of successfully defending cases like yours. ·     The choices you make today - will help you tomorrow. https://lnkd.in/eax7ZDfH This is important because preparation begins with preparing for your presentence interview, and the most important person in your life to date is your probation officer. The probation officer will interview you and conduct their investigation. But if you have taken the time to write a heartfelt narrative that you provided along with everything else they requested 1-2 weeks before your interview, they may have the time to get to know who You are. If all goes right, they may come away from the meeting with a feeling of a person that is the opposite of the Indictment they have been reading when they recommend your sentence to the Judge. No Promises, but yes! That’s why it is very helpful to be prepared, and included in this preparation is a well-written, introspective, heartfelt personal narrative. https://lnkd.in/eDPDv7mW Judges understand that crimes don’t happen in a vacuum; they want to know what happened in your life that caused you to do this. No excuses. Accept responsibility while having remorse for the victims harmed. If you’re lucky, this may prompt the judge to converse with you at sentencing, where you can speak from the heart, covering the points in the narrative. No witness tampering. Hopefully, you have been working, volunteering, or caring for a disabled or sick relative in the time period before sentencing because judges don’t want to learn that you’ve been doing nothing but sitting at home. If you have multiple cars and houses, sell them if you’re facing a financial penalty (i.e., restitution) But with no narrative, then the DOJ has written your story for you in the form of your INDICTMENT, and the judge will use that to sentence you. ·     This makes the PSR much more critical than the sentencing memorandum.

✍ What's the problem with pre-sentence reports? Pre-sentence reports compiled by probation officers are key to informed sentencing decisions. However, as pressure and workloads have skyrocketed, recent years have seen a shift from detailed, longer-form reports to short, rushed reports, with a recent bulletin from HM Inspectorate of Probation presenting a range of shocking inadequacies. We believe that the decline in quality and increase in speed of pre-sentence reports has compromised the ability of sentencers to make fully informed decisions, particularly for those with complex needs. This undermines the goal of rehabilitation and disproportionately impacts those who are already vulnerable, perpetuating the cycle of crisis and crime. Read more about why it's time to return to thorough, personalised pre-sentence reports in our latest blog from Policy Manager and former probation officer Kelly Grehan ⬇ https://lnkd.in/esEs8fr4
