    Post Probation Officer is Recommending Jail

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas. Haven't been before judge, went to see Pretrial office, didn't pass drug test, will not go before the judge until 6/21/12, he's telling me I got to do 30 days in jail, is this legal?

    Most likely. If you were on pre trial, I am sure that the rules were laid out for you. It does not matter if you didn't report first. It does not matter if you didn't read through the rules before you dropped. It's still legal.

    When you commit crimes and are also caught using illegal drugs, you up the odds of jail time. The rest depends on the charges, your age, prior record, the facts of the offense, and other relevant details.
