Contact CPCS for assistance with clearing up Massachusetts-based default warrants and probation violations. Clients must meet indigency standards in SJC Rule 3:10 (see www.mass.gov/courts/case-legal-res/rules-of-court/sjc/sjc310.html) in order to get a CPCS attorney and an attorney will not be assigned until the client appears in court in Massachusetts.

You should be able to get advice from CPCS prior to the assignment of counsel, however. CPCS does not handle parole violations.
