What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Colorado
I was in court recently on a interlock infraction and the intitial offer was a suspension with no jail but was told that it was possible that there would be jail at some unknown date later or that it was unknown if I could jail somehow eventhough the judge said she would not jail me on the charge. When I asked to have that explained to me how a deal could be offered and then there be a unknown risk of jail later I was told that she needed to get the rest of the people in court taken care of and that she would do some research and get back to my case. After she looked in some book she said that my case could be construed as a class 1 misdemenor and that jail was required. I dont understand how one offer can be given then yet another later based on a "could be considered" wording in some book. I was offered a continuance and took it. Does this sound strange or less than legal to you?
