    Unhappy New Charge While on Department of Corrections Probation

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Mississippi.
    I am currently serving probation for a Circuit Court case...non-adjucated for 5 years that were suspended. I have attended probation almost 1/2 of that time and I was charged with uttering forgery. The family dropped the charge but the DA picked up the case because I paid restitution a week late. Can the family still go to the DA's office and request that everything be dropped? I have paid restitution and I'm VERY scared....what can happen?

    Do you have a criminal defense lawyer yet? If not, it's time to get one.

    The prosecutor does not have to dismiss the new charge, or to forego probation violations on the old charge, even if the family begs him to drop the charge.
