Billings Municipal Court

Filed under:Misdemeanor Practice,Pretrial,Probation — posted by tc on December 8, 2007 @ 4:55 pm

Coming out of hiding to link to three articles on Billings Municipal Court and its supervised probation and pre-trial supervision practices. The first attempts to give a big picture overview. The second focuses on one person who was subjected to the injustice of pretrial supervision for a misdemeanor DUI charge. And the third examines who is making money from the court’s regular practice of requiring citizens to pay for “supervision” for a multitude of misdemeanor offenses.

This isn’t the first time this court has received this kind of criticism (see also), and it won’t be the last.
