What is the name of your state? Ohio
My husband was arrested Oct. 2005 for DUI. Since he was on probation at the time of his arrest, his PO violated him in Nov. 2005. He was sentenced to 412 days for the probation violation and 6 months for the DUI consecutively. He has to serve the 412 days for the probation violation before he can start the 6 months for the DUI. My question is doesn't a felony trump a misdemeanor? Shouldn't the time he's serving now count towards the felony and not the misdemeanor?What is the name of your state?

My response:

You're asking all the wrong questions. You should be asking, "I deserve better. How do I unload this irresponsible idiot?"

Isn't it real easy to divorce someone while they are in jail? Wouldn't now be the opportune time to do it?
