In court tomorrow

roozil293

Hello. I'm in court tomorrow for completing community service. District court. I was originally sentenced to cs for theft of petrol, which was genuinely a dumb moment of rushing. I paid the following day then was arrested months later. I was found guilty. Anyway to the community service.

Since then, I have been diagnosed as psychotic with agoraphobia which left me unable to do cs. The probation officer is bringing me to court under section 11.1 ( change of circumstances ) I have psychiatric letters etc. What is the likelihood I will do jail? I have 650 euro to appeal incase I get jail. Is 650 enough vfor a surety / recognizance? Tia.

How much did you steal? If it's your first offence I'd say you're grand. Show up with a solicitor and you'll stand a better chance.

Wouldn't be sentenced to community service if it was a genuine mistake and first offence. If tia paid the next day I can't see how the guards came looking weeks later. Fishy.

80 euro. Then paid the next day when girlfriend copped I never paid. At that point the Garda were already informed and the judge found me guilty. I had to do community service but now am back in court because of not completing community service due to mental health issues.

I have previous from 10 years ago but literally turned my life around when I stopped drinking.

Well why would I be asking if that wasn't the situation. That's exactly what happened.

backspin.

Public flogging, 50 lashes at high noon in the town square is the sentence id prescribe.

It was the cashier's fault anyway.
When you were buying a packet of rolos and a can of coke he didn't say "Any petrol or diesal"?
