Casey Anthony's appeal was denied and she has been ordered to serve her one year of probation in Orlando, Fla. RadarOnline.com has learned.
A court of appeal in Daytona Beach just filed an order that says: "the petitioner and her lawyers were well aware that her probationary placement was not to begin until her release from confinement. The petitioner may not, under these circumstances, take advantage of the administrative error of the Department of Corrections."
Casey's defense team has tried to argue that she served her probation stemming from her conviction in a check fraud case while she was incarcerated awaiting the trial for the alleged murder of her daughter, Caylee Marie Anthony.

Judge Belvin Perry disagreed with her lawyers' claim and had ordered Casey to report to the Orlando Department of Corrections by 12 p.m. on August 26 to begin serving her probation from the check fraud case.
The Attorney General's office said on Monday that she was not able to serve probation while behind bars. "Legally, it is clear that a defendant cannot serve probation while incarcerated."

The Department of Corrections officials have said that they are ready to begin supervision of Casey after she reports to an undisclosed location by Friday, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
"We're waiting for her," DOC spokeswoman Gretl Plessinger said. "She has until Friday at noon to report."

Casey was acquitted of murdering her daughter in July and was released from prison a week later.
Her attorney Jose Baez said she has returned to Florida to begin serving her probation, but would not reveal her location.

I can't believe how many people are getting this confused with her trial. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CAYLEE, it is about her pleading guilty to STEALING CHECKS FROM A FRIEND AND CASHING THEM. That is why she is on probation.

Good luck FloriDUH. I hope she serves her time quietly and gets the hell out of that nasty state ASAP. FloriDUH is the trailer park capital of this country. They're wasting time and money on someone who was found NOT GUILTY.

This probation stems from her stealing checks from a friend, which she admitted doing, so they are not wasting their time, this was part of her punishment.

It is time to appeal to Florida Supreme Court. Once the person is committed to Department of Corrections, the court loses jurisdiction then it is the Deparment of Corrections which decides how, when and if the probation or sentence is completed

The evil thing(I can't call her a human), is complaining about probation when she should be on DEATH ROW. I bet lil caylee would love to be on probation instead of murdered by her mother.

I agree with all comments except Mary's. This evil, narcissistic human being needs
to be made to work and serve hours of some kind of miserable community service. I hope she fails!

I wonder if the Murderer knows that spreading her legs for money is NOT considered a job...that's not going to fly for the job portion of her probation. And what is a high school dropout loser to do? How will she find a job?
