Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

I was arrested on a HS11350 in 2009 but still to this day don't know why I was even stopped. I was ordered to pc1000 and was unable to complete although I asked my very expensive attorney to ask for an extention. I was given summary probation for 3 more years wirh a 4th ammendment waiver, can I appeal this decision? I am a disabled vet and had no way to get to the classes not to mention I have only recently been given paperwork from the sheriffs dept., which is contradicts actual events. It even contraticts Itself. i.e. amt of said substance, illegal search and miranda. Plz if u can understand what i am actually asking I would appreciate it. Thank you

Your attorney may be the only one who knows what is going on ... I'd contact him or her And/or consult in person with some defense attorneys local to you. Good luck!

I understand just fine. You are asking why police and prosecutors did something three years ago, with which you disagree. They did so because they accused you of a crime. You had the right then to defend and go to trial if you thought you were innocent. No, you can not now appeal a three year old plea bargain, or a conviction at trial. You should promptly consult with your previous attorney, or hire a local criminal defense attorney to help you determine what is going on and to avoid jail for probation violation, which is what it sounds like you are facing. You arguing about the 'facts' with sheriffs on your doorstep with an arrest warrant is not going to go well.
