Re: help me please

If your husband is being held for a probation violation, then they will bring him back to South Carolina where he will appear before a judge. The judge will decide if he did in fact violate the terms of his probation, and if so, what should happen to him. He has the right to a hearing and can put forth a defense at the hearing. He definetely should have a lawyer because the judge could possibly sentence him to jail. Your welcome to call if you care to discuss this. Robert Johnston 843-828-1137
