1st degree criminal trespass of dwelling

David B Harrison
Answered by attorney David B Harrison (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Miller & Harrison, LLC
First Degree Criminal Trespass is defined as 'knowingly and unlawfully enering or remaining in the dwelling of another'.  Voluntary intoxication is not a defense to this crime.  However, certainly being intoxicated may mitigate the seriousness of the offense in some ways.  Depending on your prior criminal record, if any, and the homeowners position on the case, it may be possible to work out a plea bargain that owuld not result in a permanent felony conviction on your record.  Our firm would, of course, be happy to help.

If my case status goes from pending to closed, does that mean my probation is over?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dennis Julian Roberts (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Dennis Roberts A Professional Corporation
I would think so as they are trying to kick the non serious offenders out of probation supervision. With reallignment all the state guys doing PRISON time who get parole violations are going under the supervision of county probation instead of parole. But the safest thing to do is to call your P.O. and if you weren't assigned one just ask for the General Duty officer. If they tell you it is over, write them a letter confirming what they told you.

What can happen the next time I report for VOP now that I refused to take a drug test?

Answered by attorney Jason William Savela
Criminal Law lawyer at The Savela Law Firm, P.C.
If there is a timely filed motion to revoke probation, and the court finds that you violated probation, judge can sentence up to the max for that charge. If there was a suspended sentence, that is usually the sentence, but it could be less. Drug testing is not a part of every probation, was it ordered by the court? If not, you might not have to do it. You should have been given a copy of the conditions of probation, review them to see about no drugs you should get yourself clean so that the next drug test is clean if you are near the end of probation, then this may not be raised with court, but if it is, I would try for a deal where you get some community service or short jail and terminate probation, you do not want to revoke and regrant probation for a lengthy time, that delays the inevitable.
