I have a friend who has one month left on probation. Probation has violated them for a minor incident that happens six months ago. I understand they can violate the individual but my question is what is the steepest penalty they can face at this time? Also, please be advised their fines are paid in full. Please advise.

It depends on the severity of the "minor" incident. If it is indeed a minor incident and the only probation violation that's occurred and all fines are in fact paid to date then your friend will probably get away with an extended probation period. If, however, the offense is more serious then (s)he'll probably see some jail time.

Hello nubian:

It doesn't matter how much time she has left. If she had three years total, they can violate her for the entire three years.

If it was PAROLE, though, and there was only a month left, then all they could violate a person for would be a month.

My boyfriend was arrested with a probation violation for not compling with daily reporting. He went in and checked in every day but failed to tell them he had moved and was not paying the fees. Now will he have to serve his time. What kind of time is he facing. He got chared with 180 of daily reporting.Now does he just serve the rest of his time or does he sever the hole 180 days. If not do we have a chance of getting him out.

.Now does he just serve the rest of his time or does he sever the hole 180 days. If not do we have a chance of getting him out.Hello j:

They'll tell him at his violation hearing... But they could keep him till he's done.

My bOyfriend qOt prObatiOn when he was 15 fOr beinq accused Of stealinq a dudes chain he didn't dO it sOmeOne else did & the guy that qOt the chain stOlen said that it was him when it wasn't ! After that my bOyfriend did the prObatiOn there was a missunderstandinq he tauqh he was dOne with is prObatiOn sO One niqht he did sOmethinq silly he was with sOme Of his friends and they frOze a white dude with a BB qun and qOt his credit card and went tO a supermarket tO take the mOney Out all of his friends were Hooded in the camera except him ! They cauqht him & put him in DetentiOn center fOr 21 days after that when he qOt Out 3weeks later they came and qOt him with a warrant and sent him tO jail he's currently 17.His mOm bailed him Out .But he's charqed with roberry with deadly weapon in the state Of flOrida ! l. He as kid On the way with me! What cOuld they dO and sentence him right nOw he's On hOuse arrest.

HellO Free:

They'll prObably give him 25 years On the rObbery and then he'll have to finish up his prObation after that.

POinting a lOaded weapOn at sOmebOdy has repercussions.

That's silly Hes just 17and he's about to have a baby doesn't the court qet sensative abOut that ?

HellO again, Free:

Yes. That'll cOme up during sentencing. Maye they'll give him 20 instead of 25. But, what'll they cOnsider first, is that he rObbed a guy with a lOaded weapOn, while he was already On prObatiOn fOr anOther Offense.

I would like to know what I can expect.I m on probation for one year (heroin),and on my first visit. After I visited I got stop by officer and they got me for same thing heroin poss. On same day of my probation.But I never show positive on drug test.

What? You were in possession, right? That is a separate issue from testing positive.
