The worst case is that you end up back in prison and do 1.5 to 6 years.

AZ has a complicated sentencing scheme.

Second time felons do get the ante upped, if they receive prison time.

If you're lucky, you might get probation.
That is WHY you need an attorney!

This is Arizona;s sentencing schemes or puzzles!
Looks like somewhat of a crap shoot, if you ask me.

The best case is that you plead not guilty, admit to NOTHING, ask for the court to appoint an attorney to represent you (or hire your own attorney), go to trial, force the state to PROVE their allegations, and the jury returns a NOT GUILTY verdict!
