Defendant Michael N. Rodriguez pleads true to probation violations; court orders him to remain in custody pending transfer

In the 187th District Court session on March 25, 2023, the defendant Michael N. Rodriguez acknowledged alleged probation violations and pleaded "True" to violations described in court as numbers two and four.

The prosecutor read allegations that Rodriguez had failed to submit to required drug testing and failed to report to his supervision officer for specified months. When asked, Rodriguez responded "True" to the charged violations. The court asked defense and the State whether there was a proposed agreement; counsel described a proposed disposition characterized in the record as to "deny state's motion and alter amend for SAT." The court advised the defendant about the potential legal consequences, including that revocation could carry terms of imprisonment up to 10 years per cause.

After considering the plea and proposed agreement, the court announced that the defendant would remain in custody until transfer. The judge also instructed the defendant under oath and asked routine questions about understanding the rights and consequences related to pleading. Rodriguez offered context for his noncompliance, saying he had difficulty obtaining stable housing and identification and had been "embarrassed" to reach out for help.

The court's remarks reflect procedural handling of probation revocation matters in open court; no final long‑term sentence was pronounced on the record during the excerpted portion provided, and counsel discussed logistics for related court dates and transfers.
