Then things got even worse, in one case, which had appeared a pretty open and shut case, He ended up never attempting to fight the case and the prosecutor had changed the plea deal in the last minute, consequently doubling my already unusually harsh jail sentence, fines, fees and disappointment. The ...next case was much more important considering I was facing a felony. He had me thoroughly convinced we could get dropped to a misdemeanor. So when he told me that even if I had gotten it dropped to a DUI, it would be my 3rd charge resulting in a felony either way. Well as Montana's codes and statutes apply, Interestingly enough, it turns out it is in fact 4 Consecutive DUI's which constitutes a Felony. So I ended up getting a felony when I had expected a DUI, and got an extra long sentence for a min. cutoff THC DUI... This case occurred in 2013, and sadly enough I'm still on paper after getting my probation revoked. I chose to let the state appoint me a Public Defender in that case, I've been fairly pleased with him overall, next time I've already decided ill be the one to represent my corporate fiction.
