Question

i was on 3 years reffered adjudication and left the state now its a motion to adjudicate and haven't went back what legal results do i face



Answer

You were on "deferred" adjudication which means you were not found guilty but had you completed the probation, you would have not had a conviction. What you are facing depends on what the type of case. Given that the probation is 3 years, that tells me it is a felony, although I have no idea what the level. If you are revoked (and without a great lawyer and good story you will be), then you are facing up to the maximum time in jail that that offense carries.

While some judges allow the prosecutors to negotiate the sentence, others do not because you are actually on a contract with the judge.

Also, be aware that the State can and will extradite for a felony if they catch in another state.
