My question involves criminal law for the state of: Georgia (Cobb)
Firstly, forgive me please please if I do not post the right things, or post too much, or any of that, I've never done this NOR am I familiar with ANY of this mess, I've yet to even get my first traffic ticket. I'm just posting on here in hopes of finding any kind of helpful advice. I'll try and make it as short of a story as I can.

My friend, my best friend in the whole world, is sitting in Cobb County right now, for over 3 weeks now. He started Probation Nov 2012, and in Feb 2013 they issued a warrant for him, (under judge Grubbs )claiming non-report (NOT absconding) for January. In JANUARY he had a transfer done from Cobb to Gwinnett WHERE HE LIVES, and was told to wait 5weeks to hear from someone in Lawrenceville. Paper work was dropped I know it. After a couple of weeks not hearing anything, he decided to call L'ville to be safe. They said they have no record of him, etc etc, so he calls Cobb back and they 'ruled' he was a no show for January. Although the P.O. I talked to seemed hesitant that THAT was even done, she was actually very pleasant to me when I called and asked about any info I could get.

HE hired an attorney that was incredibly rude to us, would never contact us, and won't cooperate in pursueing any angles, or presenting anything to the judge because his view is "shes just a tough one and I'm not going to make her yell at me. When we spoke to the DA, the DA said that he and our attonrey are super good friend. (like golf on the weekends, and hit up Applebees.)

Then suddenly he hears yesterday from the attorney that THE D.A. IS TRYING TO SUGGEST 6months, NO 2 for 1 (even though he is WORKING in the jail right now, WorkPod.) ANNNND NO CREDIT FOR TIME SERVED. A whole MONTH, no credit. And is threatening if he doesn't take THAT deal, they'll ask for more. This is his 1st violation, technical at that, doesn't use, hasn't done ANY wrong,no new charges and him and I both are about to lose it. It feels like some communist China crap right here. PLEASE someone help me. PLEASE. I've never even had a traffic ticket much less know how all this works. We are both mid twenties and he has no family here in GA. I'm all he's got on the 'outside'. I'm trying to post everywhere I can to even begin to help. He's got a date in front of the judge April 25th. So I'm trying to hurry and regroup. PLEASE I know I might be asking to be made a fool posting on here, but please someone who could help law-wise or an HONEST recommendation, please, I'd be forever grateful. Thank you so much all
