Transfer of probation to another state

excon · Jan 30, 2007, 06:50 AM

Hello stella:

Ask your PO what the rules are, and then ask him for a copy. You'll be able to determine whether he's on your side or not. At least he'll know that you want to transfer, so he's not going to be surprised when he receives your request. This whole thing is about avoiding surprises. Cops HATE surprises.

Next; don't go yourself, but get a job and a place to live in the other state. Write the probation agency that will be doing your supervision. Introduce yourself. Tell them about your job, and your place to live. Tell them about your crime and how sorry you are. Tell them that you are about to request a transfer, and wanted to give them a heads up.

Then, make your request in writing to your present PO. Having read the rules, you'll KNOW that you meet the criteria. Therefore, in your request, tell them that you, indeed, meet the criteria for transfer according to rule such and such.......cite the rule.

A request formed in that manner will be awfully hard to turn down. If it IS turned down, you've got your ducks all lined up for an appeal.

excon-
What about if the case is so mild, the PO said the state will deny the request? What can I do then?

Hello A:

I don't know what mild means. You either DO meet the critera for transfer or you don't. If you do, and you're turned down, file an appeal.

excon, I have read what you've posed above and I do understand what you are say. I'm trying to move from Massachusetts to Kansas to start my life over. I am only 21 but the crimes they got me with are not anything to play with. My PO is not the best I've ever had and I believe that no matter how good I can make this move sound he will fight it ever step of the way. My crime took place may 18th 2007... My probation was set from (1/6/08-1/6/13) I have a meeting with my PO every two weeks... My next one is in 2 days... I just want to know how to kick it to him that this is what I want to do without him flipping his lid... He is an a$$ and something as small as a speeding ticket is a VOP to him... Trust me I've been there already. Please take you're time in answering to this... There's no rush... I'm just trying to make this move ASAP

Thanks, Tommy
