    1. Hi Priscilla: I’m sorry to hear about your husband. You must be so frustrated with the unknown aspect of this. In order to know exactly what is happening with your husband’s case, we will need his case information. Without running a minute order in the matter, there is no way to know what is happening and why he is still in custody.

  2. My Husband is on probation for the most is 18 months. We was living in fort meade florida we had lost are jobs we was homeless we couldn’t take care of ourselfs his probation officer didn’t even try to give us rescources. One of are buddys from Ruskin Florida had told us we could come live with them. Well he asked his probation officer for a transfer she gave him one then gave him papers to see his new probation officer in the morning at 8am. He went to see his new probation this officer gave us resources helped him get a job we got are own place. Well he went back to see his new P.O for the second time he told my husband he has a warrant for his arrest. It so happens the warrant was for being out of County. But come to find out she did it after she transferred him to Ruskin. He is now in Jail waiting for his court date.

    1. Hi Christina. Sorry to hear about your husband’s case. Unfortunately, because the case is in Florida, you should contact an attorney in the county in which the case originates. We are only licensed in California and I am unfamiliar with the procedures in Florida. Wishing you the best of luck!

  3. My girlfriend violated her probation for not finishing her follow up after treatment in time and missed her court date for probation violation because they sent her paperwork for a court date to the right place but it came late because of partially wrong address, our address is 819 blah blah st and the court papers had 81 blah blah st this was her 1st violation ever for a dwi, her 2nd one, her first dwi was 13 years ago. She is in Scott county mn she was picked up on a warrent the 27th and has to see the judge on the 4th. What are the chances of her getting out on the 4th, for a first time probation violation I’ve heard Scott county is very strict about probation violation and she more then likely will get revoked and sit more time.

    1. Hi Mark: I am sorry to hear about the complications with your girlfriend’s case. Unfortunately, we don’t practice in MN. Every county is in each state is very different on how they treat various probation violations. You will get the most accurate and reliable information from an attorney that regularly practices in Scott County. Best of luck to her!

  4. Just wondering…My friend is on probation. She still has some time left but doing good. Complying. What if she had left the state at one time but probation doesn’t know. What would happen if they found out before she gets off?? Now let’s say she left because she was pregnant homeless and in an abusive relationship. Also at the time she had a warrant. She stayed gone for about 3mons. Came back and the same day went And paid the bond. Would any of this info matter, count as maybe a good reason for leaving??

  5. My friend skipped parole for more than 10 years and didn’t get in trouble, not even a ticket. Then she got stopped and had her record run, and they let her go. Does that mean she’s off parole now? I’m curious if that’s really the case or they potentially didn’t check for parole violations?

  6. I am on court probation. I just went to court for possession. I told them I will take it to trial because the 0.3 grams of dope they found inside the car I was driving was not mine. A day before the trial, the district attorney dismissed the case. But now they say I have a violation of probation hearing on the 3rd. How did I violate probation if there was no crime ?

    1. Hey did you ever get an answer to your question? I’m in a similar situation I’m on formal probation and was arrested for misdemeanor possession. I am trying to get the charges dismissed and have court at the end of the month, but I already received notification to appear in court for a violation of probation. What if the charges are dismissed? am I automatically violated before the outcome of my new case?

      1. My case got dismissed but I still had a violation of probation hearing. They say that the court doesnt need as much evidence to violate your probation as they would in a new case. So I took the stand. The officer came to court, took the stand. Then I did. Explained that the car was just bought 3 days prior at a police auction. The judge said I cannot find him guilty of any charges and will not be violating his probation. A win for me

  7. Hi Diana, my gf was charged last year with misdemeanor domestic violence charge agaisnt her ex-bf. Been on probation and going to her court ordered class. The issue is that she lives in Santa Ana and the class where the incident happened is in Pomona. So she has to commute in rush hr traffic, cutting it close every so often. She violated the class once already for failing to show up to class on time. Due to having to get off of work, pick up her son from the babysitter, drive to Pomona, drop him off with family and then head to class. She was reinstated by the judge for that violation. But she just violated it again with for the same issue. What will happen now? And what can she do to help make it easier for her to complete her required classes as a working single mother?
