A friend was on federal probation after serving 7 years on drug charges. He violated his probation (urine was positive for meth ). Probation officer followed him and had state officers pull him over for violation of federal probation. At the time he was also charged with state charges for possession. He went back to jail and served a year for the federal probation violation. The state possesion charges are still pending. What should he expect from these charges ? Could a lawyer get them dropped ? This occured in Indiana.
