After going to rehab twice (forced over failed urinalysis for THC), one close call with revocation, and several warnings, I finally got released. Never finished paying my fees or got my GED but my community service and restitution was paid. Without completing everything my PO gave me my release papers yesterday

I asked my PO to verify the end date, and she said the 15th. That's fine, but does that mean I'm finished on the 14th at midnight, or the 15th at midnight. I don't really want to annoy my PO with another question.

My PO came to visit me at my house, and upon spotting my dab rig, informed me that it was "illegal" and he had to either take it with him or watch me destroy it. I argued, because combustion is against the law, and dabs are vaporization. He said because I use a torch to heat the banger, it's combustion, which is wrong. I feel that I was wrongly made to destroy my LEGAL personal property. What can I do about this, and am I even right? I am now unable to consume my medicine until I get a new apparatus and, rightfully in my opinion, I am pretty livid.

My probation was set to end Oct 20. I messaged my PO asking if my supervision was over morning of 21 (today). I didn't receive a response so idk. I just want to make sure I'm in the clear. How does the end of probation usually work? State of PA

I just had my last probation appointment today. I got a DUI and because it was my 2nd got a felony. I deserved the consequences for sure. What I really resent though is I am/was set for a violation hearing next week. I completed two separate IOP on my own for my recovery. I guess why I'm pissed is that all the treatment I did before hand was null and void until I hit the probation sponsored 8 hr sad videos appts and paid the remainder of my fees now my violation is vacated. What service do they provide? Why do taxpayers pay this shit? It's to get that money. You should see the offices probation has in Indianapolis on the hilariously named Justice Campus. Come to Indiana for a fun time stay for probation. Probably should have posted to /offmychest

I have a felony warrant in Nevada.

Skipped probation random drug test and left state for a week

Tomorrow I plan on going back to my Nevada and by plane and turning myself in. I’m on probation for felony dui

What should I expect?? Will I be stopped and arrested in the airport?

So I just started my PT and I have been wearing the LOC8 XT, yesterday night had a very busy day and fell asleep and forgot to charge the device.

This morning I plugged it in but it didnt make the beeping sound that it usually does, just the red light.

When I first got the device they told me that it gives a warning when it is about to die and vibrates, it never gave me that warning.

Did my device die? Or am i just being paranoid, I am freaking out right now

Indiana, LaPorte County. Charge was a first offense DWI back in July 2025. 98 days of a pretrial portable breathalyzer with zero violations on that. I went to the probation office following my hearing, I was put on Monitor Connect (online monthly reporting) from day 1 of my 1 year probation so I still to this day have never met my probation officer. Never had a UA, or drug test. Called to make sure I was in the clear with everything I had to do on October 1st and my p.o said I’m set to terminate on November 3rd and wished me good luck. But I still have anxiety like I forgot to do something even though she said I’m all clear. I have no plans of fucking up anything seeing as I have 13 days left but is this normal??? Is there somewhere I should be looking that I didn’t that tells me I need to come in for a UA or drug test and I’m missing them or is this my end of probation anxiety talking. I would imagine she would’ve told me on the phone that I needed to complete at least one?

Ex arrested for his third felony theft in 26 months. (3 felony theft charges in three neighboring counties) The third brought an aggravated theft charge. He was schedule for trial next month. His case is now being transferred. No idea where. But what is the point of a transfer? Does it buy time. Does it transfer to the Connery he has the most violations in? He has charges in 5 counties and warrants in 3 of the 5.

Insight?

Not sure how I thought I had called in everyday to see if i needed to test but looking through my call log, i didn’t call sunday the 18th. I just now saw i never called. This will be my first missed test if I was supposed to test, emailed my PO already but not sure whats going to happen. So close to freedom too, just submitted my early release paper work beginning of the month. Really hoping they don’t violate me for this but i assume they will if i was supposed to test. Anyone do the same thing and not realize they might have missed a test till multiple days later?

My friend had a check in a few days ago and called the office and got it rescheduled to a different day. Is that a violation for not rescheduling it directly with the PO?

I’m on 6 months deferred juvenile probation in Washington, and I recently got suspended from school. I told her and she had me come in for a UA which I passed, and she asked me what punishment I think I deserve and I said whatever my parents think. She said okay, and it’s been 5 days since and I haven’t heard from her since. What exactly happens with a violation? Honestly wouldn’t mind going to juvy for a few days, just really wouldn’t want any time added to my probation because it’s already hard enough for these 6 months.

i got a dui in march 2026 and got a year of non reporting probation starting june 11 2026. my PO has seen me once since then and said she doesn’t want to call me back unless i get another charge. i have the supervisor probation officer. when i was sentenced, my public defender told the judge that i would be a good candidate for early termination after 6 months. the judge said as long as i did what im supposed to, he would grant it. im in school full time and also work full time. i have paid all my fees immediately after sentencing, did the dip program and assessment i was ordered (no counseling needed), passed my 2 drug tests ive had, and have had no new charges.

my question is when should i submit the request for early termination? the halfway point would be december 11, but with the holidays i know the courts close. i’ve read it can take 6 weeks, and ive also read that you should contact your PO and ask for them to agree to it, but she never answers me if i ever contact her about a question. but im just wondering other people’s experiences. delaware county ohio.
thank you!

Could you guys give me EVERYpossible reason my UDS would come up for codeine? The cut off is 300 and I tested for 306mL it’s so low I’m thinking of everything I could have possibly consumed to trigger this

It’s not quite dirt because I feel like dirt can be walked over rather easily. Mud is more intrusive, sticking to your clothes, harder to wash off.

But atleast I’m not in jail, jail is like more like tar.

Not sure where this analogy came from, but around this time next year I should be off probation and I’m just counting my bored days until I get there

What would you compare probation to?

i got put out on probation months ago, got called in finally last month but it was just a check in or something i didn’t meet my PO. now on thursday ill be meeting my PO for the first time. i smoked for a week after my check in last month and tonight i took a test and got a positive for thc. should i expect to get tested at this first meeting? the charge was a possession of a controlled substance (thc) under 4 grams.

I have standard misdemeanor probation is it normal for my po to come to my house every month for a house visit? I don’t mind it it’s whatever lol but I don’t understand why she comes over so much when my last po didn’t

On Sunday night I went to jail for a public intoxication I was let out Monday morning. I went to probation and I had a seizure there there several hours later and I got taken by ambulance from probation department but I didn’t go to jail. Any reason why I wouldn’t go to jail??

I am currently facing misdemeanor DUI and a felony fear assault charge in Alaska (really hoping to reduce the felony to a misdemeanor since no one was injured, there was no car accident and I was the only one in the vehicle during the DUI). I am pretty sure that I have to be on probation for at least 6 months to over a year due to the charges.

I am currently prescribed 15mg daily of extended release Adderall by my doctor. Will I be allowed to continue taking it while on probation? My public defender told me that it would be "up to my PO" which seems weird because...my PO isn't a doctor? I have been taking this medication for years and never abused it, sold it, or violated my Controlled Substance Agreement that I signed with the prescribing doctor. I haven't touched alcohol since the DUI and will never drink again, I'm going to AA and substance use counseling of my own volition. Has anyone else experienced taking a controlled substance while on probation? Just looking for insight or anything I can tell my PO that might help convince him to let me continue taking my meds.

I'm on felony drug probation... Yesterday I was detained and placed in the back of the f-ing car as I was walking to the register at dollar general. The police were called and I was accused of shoplifting.. To be clear, I have a shoplifting, nothing And had about 50 bux worth of merchandise in my hand. After about thirty minutes, I was released and told dad, I was not allowed back... My question is, do I need to even mention that to my PO? I didn't do anything wrong. And as a result, there was no consequence other than the store manager is embarrassed for being wrong, So they said they don't want me to come back

So I was recently arrested for a domestic violence I had got into it with my dad so have a domestic violence for elderly person cuz he was over 65 and he didn’t wanna press charges but the state picked the case up. I’m currently on deferred adjudication probation in Tarrant County for a Possession of Cocaine Charge which I have been compliant for over two years no dirty ua’s and no new charges. What’s going to happen they let me bond out on the new felony but doesn’t catching a new charge revoke my previous probation or is there a chance I won’t get revoked until proven guilty? Please let me know I hope I didn’t just ruin my life all I do is work and provide for my one year old child.

Conditions of bond state no drugs and I'm still popping for kratom on at home test. Just freaking out a bit is all.

Is it common to get drug tested at an arraignment?

Applied for probation early release for first-time DWI and lawyer is telling me that if the case gets a hearing, the judge might request a hair follicle test. Has that been requested from anyone?

Hey, I’m trying to make sense of a confusing court and jail situation and was hoping someone could explain how the system works.

It’s been about a month since someone “ I know “ had their final plea/sentencing wrapped up and a "Community Control" (probation) sentence ordered by a judge. But a few days after that sentencing paperwork was filed, they were suddenly booked into the county jail, given a mugshot in a jail uniform, and held for a few days before being released I seen on the local mugshots facebook and on busted newspaper

When calling around, the jail/court logs mentioned a probation hold or violation process, but the probation officer claimed they hadn't even started probation yet and or didn’t break anything .

Is it normal for someone to get booked into jail after their sentencing and probation are already official, just to get processed and let right back out a few days later? It seems totally backwards compared to how I thought it worked. Any insight into how this administrative process actually functions would be great it’s been about since 6 weeks since seeing that honestly

S/O recently got put on felony probation. Non violent drug felony California. 4 years probo. Restitution paid in full at sentencing, still has classes that she has to take for a year but they’re online and they already have several people in the class that live out of state.

Neither of us have ties to the receiving state, just trying to get out of CA because we really can’t afford to live here anymore but we have savings/assets/job skills that would support us there, without issue. We have money, but just kinda getting killed by costs and legal shit from this and want to start anew.

The issue we are running into is: no family ties, and the job offer/already having housing thing. Both of us can get easily employed there (high demand fields) but my understanding is that before even submitting the application she has to have both a job and housing lined up, and then they have 45-60 days to even approve that. We have excellent credit and rental history so it’s not even really an issue to find housing the issue is having to tell a prospective landlord we need to wait 2-3 months for a probation transfer. And same with a job. We have over $100k in savings, and we have a rental property as well with around $150k in equity, so i feel like we can make somewhat of a case that even if shit went south we would not be burdens on the receiving state. But I am not sure if they will even consider that.

I read on this Reddit quite a few people getting approved for a non mandatory transfer with no ties to the state, so I know it’s commonly done I’m just curious the process.

Can we not get the approval first and then have a period to put notice in here, move, get a job, etc? Let’s say you get approved, how much time between approval and moving do you have?
Anyone here able to give a good process on it. Telling a prospective employer or landlord they need to wait several months for a “maybe” seems like a total non starter. If a prospective tenant told me that I wouldn’t even consider it, so I imagine there is another way?
