My question involves criminal law for the state of: i live in NYC. Someone I know has violated their probation. They are working with a legal aid who says the can't receive any bail. He was charged with assault. He was not sentenced because the person who was assaulted came forth, and said it wasn't him who assaulted him. My friend is now in jepordy of losing his job and his apt. What can he do? He atleast wants to be home while the charges are pending.
