People nickname themselves and say different thing or give themselves titles, and they hadn't practice the law even a year when doing this. Does the lawyer know the process to move supervision out of state? What are the defendant's rights? Can a probation and parole officer just show up and search your house? Do they have discretionary detainer? If they have any criminal experience these should be answered easily.  
Louisville Criminal Attorney Brendan McLeod
This criminal defense page was all there was in the beginning. Because all I do is criminal defense and I was focusing on different statutes that were common, or charges that I had tried, the page became cluttered. When I went to categorize more, I realized that the site, at that point hosted on Wix, was not able to make subdirectories that would be active with the site. (See Wix, iPage, GoDaddy.  They all lack this ability). 
Finding duda.co, a nice, fully functional website builder, up front, modern day templates and  the ability to code the backend, the site is coming around.

Get acquittals, not dismissals.  There is a difference.  Dismissals happen all the time because of over charging defendants and co-defendants.  When you try a case then the prosecution really wanted the defendant and they are prepared.  

So, many attorneys talk the talk and talk the walk and have never walked. I was brought up and told to put your money where your mouth is. 

Like the guy from Missouri, you have to show me.  So I do the same and did. YouTube Channel: KY Real Criminal Trials has 8 or so trials, my trials, a couple of suppression hearings, Emergency Custody Orders and various and sundry court matters. The trials are real and in their entirety. I have 16 more acquittals or misdemeanor convictions when on trial for Class B and Class C Felonies that are PFO 1 to attain and upload. It takes a while, though, because some are VHS and you have to feed them in. Some jury trials are on dvd and every objection creates a new file creating quite a jumbled mess to collate. The trials currently viewable consist of a Capital Murder Trial, Robbery Trial, Burglary 1, Burglary 2, PFO1 Trial, Trafficking in Cocaine Trial, Felon with Handgun Trial, Possession of Meth and Promoting Contraband Trial, and a Car Jacking Trial. They are all acquittals. Not dismissals, I get plenty of those, too. Jury "Not Guilty" Verdicts.  

The Trials currently on YouTube.  
The capital murder case is interesting. I knock a couple people's heads off for sport and because they were smarmy people that had played everyone involved. But, there were 6 people charged. Three plead, they were juveniles, and three went to trial. Of the three that went to trial only one was acquitted while the other two were found guilty of all charges. Everyone plead or was convicted, as charged, except my client. He was found not guilty on all counts. I was the only attorney sitting alone. So my wife bought that for me below, or she made it. You have to be old enough to have seen Sean Connery in The Highlander.   
Please look at the site and call me. I would love to help you in your criminal matters.  
Regards, Brendan.

Fantastic Criminal Defense Attorney in Oldham County and Status of Case
The state and federal courts are very similar inregards to case flow, or the procedural due process. The United States makes much more of an effort to keep the defendant alert to the "procedural posture" of the case, but much more secretive regarding the discovery in the case.  It has been stated that the Individual States and the U.S. likes to keep the Defendant from learning more about his case.  
1. Arraignment: The Initial Appearance predicates the arraignment if they were apprehended before a grand indictment.) Unlike state, a motion triggering the Speedy Trial Act is entered and they pick a time before ravel  
2. Bond Bond Reduction: In both state and federal court, hearings like bond reduction happen at the pretrial motions nearest in time and place. Place for federal because there are multiple courthouses in the state.  
3. Pretrial conference: Motions, etc.
4. Trial Date: Normally pretrial conferences taking up any issues not resolved or anything new that as come up.  
CRIMINAL SIMULATION: MOST OBSCURE KENTUCKY REVISED STATUTE
Criminal Simulation- KRS 516.108
516.108 Criminal simulation in the first degree.
(1)  A person is guilty of criminal simulation in the first degree when he or she 
knowingly manufactures, markets, or distributes any product which is intended to 
defraud a test designed to detect the presence of alcohol or a controlled substance.
(2)  Criminal simulation in the first degree is a Class D felony.

Up until 3 months ago, I didn't believe it existed and I didn't know it existed.  A gentleman called me and said he had been arrested at his work.  He worked for a large manufacturer and was arrested after parking his car and walking towards the entrance.  

I asked what his arrest was regarding and he told me that they thought he was selling drugs.  When he had gotten out of his car he placed a bottle of urine on the hood.  A friend of his was supposed to be there, but he couldn't wait any longer.  I mind is racing and guessing that he is not telling me the truth, that his friend is setting him up, that there is a bigger group involved here, that it has nothing to do with the pee.  
He said the officers searched his car where they found a couple pills, suboxone, and the pee.  He said he was charged with a felony and it was simulation or something.  I am thinking what he really means is syndication and maybe some co-workers were working in cahoots to steal parts, tools or something from the assembly line.

He texts me his name and I look it up at the office.  Nope, Criminal Simulation is a charge.  Specific to selling your pee and he is the first client after 17 years having sold it.  The officer was a friend of mine and I called him and asked what kind of tomfoolery is going on here.  He said he told my client, "what is the pee for?"  He kept answering and the officer said, "don't tell me it is for testing.  Tell me anything else."  The client said, what else could it be used for?  I just repeated it was for a friend.  I couldn't think of anything.  

The next day I was in a conference room and there were several officers and a prosecutor.  I was telling them what had happened and the officer in there said, "happens all the time.  I will pull people over and they have a cup of urine.  I just don't do or ask anything because I don't want to take urine into the property room with me." 

My friend, the arresting officer, said he had never heard of it until a year before when he was studying for the Sergeants Test.  

Probation and Parole: Parole or Probation? There is a difference. Get it right!
Probation and Parole officers, getting to know the Officers and there offices is integral in doing criminal defense work.  If you don't work this system like it is supposed to you will be revoked much more quickly and you will not like your life.  
Probation and Parole are assigned to work with defendants and their families to facilitate the rehabilitation of offenders. Their duties may include arranging for mental health services, jobs or housing, and monitoring their behavior.
Probation and parole officers typically share the same duties with one exception. A parole officer supervises offenders who have been released from prison after serving part of their sentence. A probation officer supervises those who are sentenced to serve probation instead of being incarcerated.
Probation and Parole is something everyone should be knowledgeable about. The officers at Probation and Parole are not your enemies unless you want them to be. I know you say, McLeod, but they are babysitting me? Well, not by choice. The Legislature introduced and passed the bill that created "supervised probation" and the officers to occupy the offices.
Do's and Dont's:
Do: Tell your officer you will be positive if he asks.  
Don't:  If the officer is going to drop you, tell him you can't go or you have "frightened bladder syndrome."  Even if THEY believe you the judge will not.  
Do:  Show up on time.
Don't: Show up wearing a shirt that says, "I Farted" or the equivalent.  
Do:  Everything and more for 1 year and get placed on inactive supervision.
Don't:  Pick up new charges, even if you weren't trying to get arrested.
