Transportation of a Controlled Substance Warrant Recalled, Probation Terminated
I represented a client at the Santa Clarita Courthouse that hired me after
he had failed to report to probation upon release from jail after he was
convicted of violating Health and Safety code section 11352(a) for Transporting
a Controlled Substance. He had been arrested on a new Domestic Violence
charge. The judge indicated he was going to sentence him to 3 years of
state prison for a Probation Violation for failing to report to probation
for 19 years and for committing the new offense. I filed and argued a
"Leiva Motion". The judge agreed that he did not have a legal
basis to violate my client's probation. Therefore, probation was terminated
with no jail time and no further court obligations. He was released from
Sheriff's custody immediately. Call my office if you have a warrant
for failing to report to probation to see how we can help you.
