Court Ordered Rehab Guidance

Summary

If you leave a court-ordered rehab program and a warrant is issued for your arrest, its crucial to consult an attorney before taking any action. Re-enrolling in a rehab program and attending court proceedings as required are advisable steps. If your probation officer is not cooperating, legal counsel can help negotiate. Showing up to court without an attorney or not being in a rehab program might increase your risks. If you have proof of hospitalization, an attorney can help present it to the court effectively.
