Legal Question
My husband was sentenced on possession with the intent to distribute within 1000 ft of a school zone and was offered a plea bargain in 2007 for 5 years probation. Knowing that he wouldnt serve jail time, he plead guilty. Now 2 years later they sentence him to 5 years on a revocation hearing for the reason of what the judge called was illegal probation! Is this right and is this what they call a mistrial?
