    Violation of Misdemeanor Probation Listed as a Felony
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida
    I was initially charged with possession of a xanax (a felony). I was finally sentenced with a POSS OF DRUG PARAPHERNALIA OTHER THAN FELONY MISDEMEANOR FIRST DEGREE ADJUDICATION WITHHELD. I was given a year probation. Today I was violated and found out that I am in VIOLATION OF PROBATION FELONY (FELONY THIRD DEGREE). Why is my violation a felony when I was adjudicated with a misdemeanor? what can I do to change this? Thank you for any help you can give me

    Ask your lawyer. Perhaps the violation is listed by the original charge. Perhaps the charge reduction doesn't occur until the end of the probation. All we can do is guess.
