Question, my fiancé, In 2015 he was arrested for larceny/theft more than 300, less than 5k. He was only 18 years old. He had a parole officer, and tested positive for THC, his parole office left, he was never assigned a new one, he called once, never got a call back. Case was closed and now it’s reopened, by filing a doc from 2015. He has a warrant for his arrest due to failing to apear but he was never notified of court, in fact summons were not served. How can we resolve this without jailtime?

I would absolutely contact a criminal defense attorney in your area. As a FL Criminal Defense attorney myself, attorneys can’t promise an outcome. Any attorney promising you what’s gonna happen ain’t worth their salt. But at least getting him an attorney will give him a fighting chance. It sounds he has a Violation of Probation for whatever reasons the PO put down. But does he have a bench warrant for failing to appear or did the judge sign a warrant based on the violation of probation? Unfortunately, there is a distinction.

What are your thoughts on invoking the rule of sequestration at a deposition in a case in state court? I have heard some attorneys argue that it is inapplicable, while others have argued that it does apply.

And does your answer change if the "extra" person is adverse to the deponent? For instance, a corporate plaintiff having two reps at the defendant's deposition.
