I finally made some damn progress. * 11
    #23620696 - 09/07/16 04:13 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Last month I reported for probation and my PO said that the judge had "Forgotten" to originally write 12 months of probation to my sentence in may.......at that point I was already on probation for 7 months.....I was doing 12 months.

When I plead out in May there was to be no added probation.  I agreed to jail, house arrest, alcohol monitoring for 7 months, and over 1000 in fines.  Not to mention I lost my car and my lawyer cost 1200 bucks......but NO more probation. I was to ride out the original year I was sentenced to oct 27th ( I violated the terms of a plea deal from before ) and this probation was to run concurrent.  So I was supposed to be done oct 27th.

When my PO told me the judge updated it to me having to stay on probation til may I crumbled. I have been in a dark phase for a while now. This was not to help.  I literally can't stay where I am at another winter.


So today after reporting for probation I just said fuck it all, and walked over to the court house. Checked in with the clerk and went into the judges court room with no representation.

My lawyer wouldnt call me back at all.

I waited til everyone had gone and he asked what I was doing there.

I walked to the podium and represented myself.

I told him I had paid my dues. I had done my time. I had lost almost everything aside from my job. I had nothing left to rely on if I had to do 7 more months of probation. I saw no reason I was to stay on it. I did their counseling, never missed a beat, never peed dirty, never gave any grief, house always clean, paid all my fines, and finish house arrest and alcohol monitoring.


He said he agreed!!!!!!

I was shocked. I was kinda at wits end with the whole thing. Thought I was stuck on the damn hamster wheel and would somehow get fucked again.

He said he would set up a status hearing for 4 weeks from now and summoned my PO to be present. He said if my PO verified everything I had said, I was done.

I called my PO and he said yes. 


I get off house arrest in 12 days. And less than 60 days I will be free again. I don't even remember the feeling at this point.

Got a raise at my job.

Won the fucking lottery.

Seems I am getting into a relationship of sorts too. 

I don't understand good luck....so bear with me if I start posting positive stuff here and there.

I'm shell shocked.

Don't know what you did to get yourself into this pickle, but I don't care.  I'm truly happy for you!  Sometimes the "squeaky wheel gets the grease."  I'm glad to see some sense of fair play has entered your life and I hope with all my heart that your run of good luck and occurrences keeps on building!

Best,

N.B.

Re: I finally made some damn progress. [Re: Nature Boy]
    #23620718 - 09/07/16 04:39 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

I got a DUI in august 2015 for blowing a .17.

I was given a very light sentence. 3 days in jail 1 year license suspension and 425 fine.


2 months later I was driving down the road on the way home from work (  I had work privileges ). A friend had dropped me off an ounce of weed I had sealed in a jar.

A herd of deer ran in front of me and I swerved to miss them like a fool.  Had I hit the deer I would've been able to keep driving. I swerved from the baby doe at the end of the pack.

My car went into a ditch and some asshole called the cops instead of helping me.

The cops showed up and demanded I go to the hospital for blood work after ripping my car apart without my permission.

They found the jar ( which I should have ditched ) and since I refused to go to the hospital ( I had mj in my system ) I got a refusal of ovi testing.

Went back to court in front of the same judge and she slammed me instantly with a year probation and an alcohol bracelet.

I wore that damn bracelet from oct 27th 2015 to may 16 2016.  Never fucked up once. I havent had a car since then bc the state forfeited it.

I went to jail for 15 days, and I have been on house arrest for the last 42 days.

Paid 1000 in court fines. 600 in house arrest fines.  550 in probation fines. And somehow kept a job 40 minutes from my squat house paying people from rides.

I had been so broke til I won the lotto.


It's been so weird. I have been given what may be my final break if I don't do something with it.

every time you consider doing something potentially stupid. stop and think of the
potential outcomes, if any of them could result in you getting locked up, reconsider
that course of action because with you there's a 99% chance you'll get busted

Congrats on the uptick of good luck, dude.  Just don't let it send you into some crazy missile to space style manic session.  Your luck could easily change.  Be grateful, don't break your arm patting yourself on the back, and keep your nose to the grindstone to see it through and then you'll be done.  I'm happy for you man.

Its a time when there's no more slaps on the wrist for me. I cant even believe I made it through this one. Love from friends, family, shroomerites, coworkers and comedians got me through this. I have almost tapped out, but I'm so glad i didnt.

And as far as pris comment goes I get what you're saying but I can 100% say all my busts are vehicle related. I'm not gonna stop smoking herb, but I'm not going to be 19 about it ever again. I cant wait to start doing comedy again and get back to my side jobs. Soon i will feel like an adult again. I dont wanna lose that. I haven't been trying, ive been doing.

You can smoke weed and be an adult and not get in trouble, sure.  It's all about maturing and all that, common sense.  You already know where you went wrong.  You've just been caught in a cycle where you get reminded nonstop of all the times you got busted, and the repeated reminders and punishment cycle keeps you locked in that frame of mind.  At least that's what it seems like to me.

I dunno, man.  I'm really happy for you.  Sounds like soon you'll have the world as your oyster.  Time to start thinking about bigger plans.

That's awesome man. Way to take it in your own hands. I've never heard of anything similar happening. Pretty cool that the judge worked with you on that.

they're all related to not thinking about the fact that you can get caught, being in
a vehicle just makes you more visible. do your shit at home

That's an awesome feeling when you get the legal shit behind you. I used to monitor my success by the number of active manila folders I had. One time I had seven....MVA, lawyer, active cases, prob violations...etc. When I finally got through with the last one it was like I grew wings.

All I can say is don't fuck it up. If it was substance abuse that got you there, then cut that out of your life. This can be the beginning of a sunny new day or the continuation of a cold rainy one. Your choice.:sunny::peace:
