So, this is a driving on a suspended. Does he stand? Wave forward rating. >> Yes, sir. >> Uh, where in the world? >> This case starts like a routine traffic docket. Quick names, quick answers, in and out. But don't blink because within seconds, the judge realizes this defendant hasn't just missed one court date. He's blown off the court for nearly 9 months. What follows is a brutal accountability check, multiple outstanding warrants coming to light, and a judge who is clearly done entertaining excuses. Stick around because this courtroom moment turns from casual to consequential fast. And the warning issued here could literally mean the difference between freedom and jail.

She still hasn't been charged on that case. Although the crimes against the blood draws me. So, what I'm hoping to do is to address this one more time. >> She plead guilty to two other counts. >> Yes. >> And she was sentenced to the adjustment of silver. >> Mr. Cena, I'm I'm lost. Your name? >> Emily. >> You sentenced her on first two counts, but >> wait a minute. I I only have one blue bag here and that's the fair to refrain from consuming alcohol uh being arrested for oil on September 24 25. That's the only one I have. >> I don't know why this is happening more and more lately. I I I just don't understand why this is happening. Can you fix this for me, please? Uh, get get the other blue back and then I'll recall the case if you will, please. Thanks. All right, I'll call you again there. Council, which one do you have? >> I have Jacob Massik. Judge >> Jacob, [clears throat] >> that's why you sentenced her on the other ones. We were only dealing with the the compl. >> Oh, he said I I thought you said you pled. Okay, let me come back to this. Jacob Kelly message 23T64501. >> Good morning, Judge. John Grat number 4387, Mr. Mass to my left hand. Please identify yourself. >> All right. So, we have a charge of failure to attend the probation visit on December 12th, and we have a charge of fear to pay all fines and costs as ordered. And we have a charge of fear to clear all warrants by November 7th. >> Josh, he has taken care of all that. Um, this is Jessica's matter. He paid him $415. >> All right. But he didn't do it when he's supposed to, right? So, I'm going to need either a plea or we're going to have to have a hearing on these 365. >> Charge is fair to pay your fines and costes. I don't know how much he owes. They just they just think you didn't pay when you were supposed to pay. So, >> I don't want to know about it. We're either going to have a hearing or you're going to plead guilty. One of the three things, one of the two things, I should say. >> Guilty charge >> on all three counts. >> All right. If you plead guilty, these would be three technical violations and you could get as a matter of these uh as per law pursuant to law, you could get 15 days. I'm just telling you that's the max. Do you understand that? >> Yes, sir. >> And did you sign, read, and understand the advice of rights? >> Yes, sir. >> If you plead guilty, you will be giving up, I mean, Jessica, all those rights, and there will be no hearing at trial. Do you understand that? Yes, sir. to the charge. Failure to schedule your probation visit on December 12th of 25. How do you plead? >> Failure to schedule it or >> failure to attend. I'm sorry. Failure to attend your appointment on December 12th. >> I will have an explanation for all this. >> That's fine. Did you fail to attend your appointment on that date? >> Yes, sir. >> The charge two that you fail to pay your fines and costs is ordered. How do you plead? >> Guilty. >> Did you fail to pay your fines and costes ordered? >> Guilty. Did you fail to pay your fines and cost order? >> Yeah. Did >> you fail charged count three that you failed to clear your warrants by November 7th? How do you plead? Uh >> you failed to clear your warrants by November 7th? >> Yes. >> Anybody force you to plead guilt? >> All right, I'll accept your plea all three counts. What's the problem here? What's >> with regard to the probation visit? There was a misunderstanding. He in fact had contacted Jessica with a n on that day and it's my understanding that they in fact rescheduled this matter. It's a very serious matter because it's um under hiding. So Mr. Mass certainly doesn't want to have this economy record for a while. Secondly, he's taken steps to make payments and he tends to make another $100 payment within the next week and a half. And then, >> okay, he was supposed to pay 40 per week beginning on October 27th after paying $270 on the date of the sentence. >> That's >> I'm sorry. >> He understands that. Judge, >> why didn't you come and talk to me if you didn't couldn't make the payment like I told you to? >> When I spoke with the Jessica on the phone, I told her I was having trouble finding a job and she told me that she would give me a little bit longer to make the payments. She sent me staffing agencies to obtain a job and I explained to her that I was having issue clearing the work and making the payments and she told me that on the 12th we would talk about extension. I missed the I missed the phone call so we could get the conversation about it. I called her at like 9:30 and 10:00 and she didn't get to I got to about the bio. >> Why didn't you clear your warrants by November 7th? >> I just didn't have the funds to clear it. He's currently working at Watson Engineering and I >> What does he do there? How about the parks? >> I'm not very uh Well, you should have called me. >> I'm sorry. >> Are you on this one, Miss WS? >> Miss O'Donnell's out of the office. >> Oh, okay. [clears throat] >> What do you your appearance? >> Elizabeth, >> what can you tell me about this? He's just plead guilty to all three counts. >> Uh yeah, sure. In regards to the probation visit, uh Miss O'Donnell met with uh Mr. message at the end of October. Um, and that was a scheduled visit. She emailed him uh after meeting him with uh via Zoom uh for that scheduled appointment. She doesn't have list of a file um any followup, but I think it is at that point in time that she ran out of record realized that the warrants at that time were cleared or warranted, I should say. Looks like he had an outstanding one at the time at 34th district. Uh in regards to the money, he did not pay as ordered. Uh he made one payment on his fines and costs um after the show cost was issued. I believe it was $50. I just looked at it. Um he did not pay at the rate that you ordered him to pay which was $40 per week beginning October 27th. His bond was applied and again he's only made one payment which was after the violation. I don't um in regards to work program, it looks like everything's completed with work program. Um there's no update in regards to his anger management program. It does not appear that he's um uh uh registered or completed that program. >> I don't know why you didn't just call me. >> I should have came and slipped you. I I contacted her and spoke with her about the work. She told me that on a 12 moment she could give me a little bit more leeway to clear the work and I I bow to her. >> I'm sorry, your honor. >> I'm accepting the police. I'm going to listen whatever else you have to say and I'm going to send anything else. >> It won't happen. >> I was talking to your lawyer. >> Judge, please take into consideration that this man provides a significant amount of support for his family as a wife and three children. He recently got his job at Watson Engineering. He He's not a bum. And um that's what you >> He's not a bum. >> Nobody said he was a bum. [laughter] >> Jeez. >> I was worried about the implied >> anything. I'm just sorry, your honor. Well, being I got a stable job now. I'll be able to make the payments and get everything taken care of at a decent time. >> Serve eight hours of community service by January 31. I'll keep you on probation. I won't assess any additional fines or declare all your warrants by January 31 as well. >> All the warrants are clear, sir. >> Okay. Well, good. Then we don't have to worry about that. All you have to do is your eight hours of community service by then. Okay. >> Thank you so much. >> Thank you very much. Good luck to you, sir. >> Thank you. >> If you need to talk with him for any reason, Joe Brandon Joey Brandon 25T647343 And we are on which room? What did you have again? >> Gabrielle. >> Your name, sir? >> Joy. >> You're going to plead the impeding traffic, right? >> Responsible or not responsible for that? >> Responsible. >> Please accepted. $150. You can go right down the end of the hall and make that payment. Okay. >> Happy New Year to you. Which one? >> That's the one you >> Gabrielle Christine Papovski 25w8388188. All right. So maybe I misunderstood Mr. uh >> it is confusing because I included >> your your parents Mr. H. Moski. >> Okay. Your name Gabrieli. I think that's one out of here. out of here. >> What do I do with this? >> I don't have >> ma'am. Just stay right there. Shut the f please. Please. Thank you. >> All right, >> Emily Christina. Um, I was just going to say it is confusing. We dealt with the show cause uh back in October where I included that she was arrested for the offense. You had me issue it for a separate show cause for the new offense, but she has still not been charged. What did what was the show cause I have of October 27th is for being arrested for OIL. >> Correct. You had me issue her own show cause and we adjourned it to today to see the outcome. I ran her record and she still hasn't been for formally charged but I was able to obtain the blood draw results. So I don't really know how we want to proceed. >> Okay. But what I've got is she did was found guilty on October 27th. Hang on. Appreciate the chemical testing October 14. Count one was dismissed on motion of the probation officer. So then I took that it looks like and ordered additional cost of $100, attend outpatient treatment or IOP as determined by the therapist, serve a day on the court work and pay $35 for that and then to remain on a sober Lincoln test once a week. So all I've got outstanding then is this charge, but she's not been charged, right? She >> is not charged, but I do have the blood results. So I don't know if you want >> the results >> uh 333 what they're waiting for. What department is this? >> It's Dan Burren. I called over there today and yeah, they they were able to provide me the the blood jars. It looks like they've had them since October 15th, but I looked it up. There's no court date scheduled and it doesn't even show up on her the criminal history. It just has the permit on her driving record. No charge either. Did did did Okay. So, do you have the show cause of October 17th? >> Yes, I have. >> Let me see that. That's the problem. I didn't have that one. All right. Why did I write down not guilty ple to count three? I can't figure this out. There is no count three. Unless I assumed that look, she should be charged with fair to refrain from consuming alcohol on the offense date. >> Yeah, that's what I did. No, I literally just got the blood draw results today. So, >> I understand. >> So, that's what I'm doing. She's going to write up a new She's going to type up a new uh charge a fair refrain from consuming alcohol and I'm going to have a hearing and I can rely on hearsay for her to establish that she consumed alcohol. We haven't even had a chance to discuss how freedom. >> No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not suggesting we move right now. She's going to do the new one and you're going to talk to the defendant and see how you wish to proceed. Okay. And I don't care how long it takes us today. I'm going to hand you these back. I think count three. >> It's weird because I think it's technically count one because it's considered a tech not, you know. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, I think people have just asked >> it's a non-technical instead of a technical. I get it. All right. So, just bear with us and we'll be back with you. Okay. Thank you. >> Um, Richard Wansowitz 25. >> Ma'am, your name. So the charges she failed to refrain from consuming alcohol [clears throat] and it's obviously commenthorate with an arrest and they think that she had a.33 on her results. How is she going to proceed here? >> She hasn't been charged yet, but I anticipate she likely will be I would ask her to accept a no contest plea. >> That's fine. I'll be happy to do that. Um, so is the no contest plea going to be too violation of law or is it going to be too fair to refrain from consuming alcohol? Name, if you plead no contest, it has the same effect as a guilty plea. Do you understand that? >> Yes. >> If you plead no contest to this charge, uh, I could revoke your probation. That'd be a techn non-technical violation and you could be incarcerated for up to 90 days. Do you understand that? And did you sign, read, and understand the advice or rights form here today? If you plead guilty, you'll be giving up all those rights and there will not be a hearing or a trial. Do you understand that? >> Yes. >> And you understand all your rights, correct? >> Yeah. >> To the charge that you uh violated a law. And you understand, again, I want to just cover this. I don't want I don't want to you to feel uncomfortable. You understand that if you plead no contest, again, it has the same effect as a guilty plea. >> Yes. >> All right. To the charge that you violated the law on September 24 of 25. How do you plead? No contest? >> Yes. No. >> All right. And uh I can refer to a report. You stipulate that there's a factual basis for this. Are you on probation or parole right now besides to me? >> No. Anybody force you to plead no contest. All right. I'm going to accept your ple in no contest to violating a law being convicted of o or at least being not being convicted but committing the offense no contest ple I'm concerned about this uh because you took a plea on two others I guess probably a couple months ago >> right >> um and in the interim I think things have been doing relatively well. So, we've got this very high BLC of that. >> Shannon Soberling. >> Yes. >> And you haven't violated. >> Didn't you put me on it? >> This is the moment that should make anyone watching sit up straight. The judge isn't just dealing with one missed appearance anymore. He's uncovering a pattern. Multiple courts, multiple warrants, and a defendant who seems genuinely surprised by the consequences. From a legal standpoint, this is dangerous territory. Judges talk, courts share records, and when someone ignores multiple jurisdictions, it signals risk. Risk of flight, risk of non-compliance, risk of future violations. That's why the judge's advice is blunt. Surrender today or expect jail later. So, here's the real question. Is this tough love or is it overdue? when you found out. >> I know, but you haven't blown positive. You >> been driving once a week too and blowing. >> Let me do this. I need to take a recess. My staff needs to take a recess. Give me five minutes. I'll get Mr. Tino out here and I don't know what happened with Okay, so just give me five minutes. Okay, John, where is Lynette Johnson's file? I I give back. >> What we've seen in this courtroom is a clear lesson in how quickly minor cases can spiral when accountability breaks down. Missed court dates turned into warrants. Financial obligations turned into probation violations and confusion nearly turned into incarceration. Ultimately, the judge balanced enforcement with restraint, emphasizing compliance over punishment, but making it crystal clear that future leniency is not guaranteed. Court orders are not suggestions. and ignoring them carries real consequences.
