Probation Complaints
Probation is an alternative to incarceration. Offenders who receive probation as a sentence will be able to remain members of their community, as long as they remain law-abiding and follow the rules and comply with conditions set by the court. These rules may require them to seek counseling or treatment, undergo drug testing, and/or perform community service. They may also be required to attend regular meetings with their supervising officer. Failure to comply with these rules and conditions may cause a Probation Complaint to be filed, which may lead to the revocation of probation and the imposition of a jail or prison sentence. Attorney Mark Langston is experienced in these matters, and will be able to provide valuable assistance with regard to Probation Complaints or any other sentencing issues.
Post-Conviction Relief
-
A conviction for a criminal offense is often the beginning of another long and complicated legal journey. Following a conviction, the law provides for appeals from adverse legal rulings, actions to overturn illegal or unconstitutionally obtained convictions, requests for the reduction of the sentence imposed, and the sealing of the records of certain eligible cases.
- Post-Conviction Review: If you have already gone to court and the case is over, it may be possible to overturn an illegal conviction. You may have been wrongly convicted.
- Reduced or modified sentence: In some cases, it is possible to get your sentence reduced or modified.
- Probation issues: If you are on probation, it may be possible to shorten the length of probation or modify the terms of your supervision.
- Record sealing : Having a public criminal record may affect many opportunities, including getting a job, getting into school, obtaining a professional license, traveling to foreign countries, even renting an apartment or obtaining insurance.
Depending on the circumstances, Mark Langston may be able to petition the court to seal your criminal records. Once a record is sealed, you can avoid having information about your criminal case. This provides legal protection from the adverse legal consequences of having a criminal record that often far outlive the sentence imposed by the court - Sex offender registration: Attorney Mark Langston can help registered sex offenders identify the legal obligations to which they must conform, help determine if and when the person can stop registering, and file a petition to terminate registration in eligible cases.
