    Default Out of State Probation Monitoring rejected

    My son (not a juvenile) accepted a plea deal in NJ (though we felt he had no choice) for a non meagan's law offense..Title 9 in NJ. He was given a small fine and a 2 year probation with possible termination after 1 year. He was living, working and having a support network (family, friends and medical help) in FL for a year, at the time of sentencing and was told by his lawyer that transferring his probation to FL wouldn't be a problem. He had never had a legal issue before this and had many letters of commendation to show that he was not a threat to society. After 3 months of reporting in FL, NJ was notified that FL rejected his probation monitoring unless he registers as a sex offender, even though NJ clearly stated that this was not the case. Of course, he won't register. He was arrested and indicted on trumped up charges, some of which, had been dropped and the last amended. It never should have reached the "plea bargain" stage. Somewhere, someone dropped the ball prior to the PTI (which he was notified that he was to have and then it was cancelled).Unfortunately, Florida looks at the original charges and not the sentencing outcome.
    He is now being told that he must return to NJ to complete his probation. He will be jobless and homeless if this occurs. We have asked our lawyer about a mail in or phone in probation (he may have only 9 months left) so he can remain in FL or have him fly up to NJ to report. So far, we have not gotten a response and time is of the essence. Does he have any recourse? Any suggestions? This case (which never should have been a case) has been dragging on for over a year.
    Thank you for your time.
