    Post Violation of Probation: First Offense

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Georgia

    My boyfriend was put on misdemeanor probation for posession of marijuana about 6 months ago. Just yesterday, he was arrested for driving with a suspended license. I realize this is a violation, but what would the minimum and maximum sentencing be and what is he looking forward to. Should he get a laywer?

    His maximum sentence would be the maximum amount of jail time he has remaining on his original charge. His minimum sentence would be to continue probation as previously ordered. As for what he's likely to get, he should ask a local criminal defense lawyer familiar with the judge, his entire criminal history, and the details of his case.
