Can get community service of I can't pay probation?
I'm on probation for a year and own 1500 dollars in fines, driving on suspended license. My daughter is only 4 weeks old. I have to pay 153.00 a month and I can't find a job anywhere. On top of this, I have 3 other children and no one around to care for them, my boyfriend works 2-10pm. Is there any way I can get the judge to trade my fines for community service? This is the second time I was fined this; unfortunately, I was unaware that once you're off probation you don't get you license back that quick or easily.

There were none for the first. I was driving and was pulled over (speeding) and arrested (suspended license) because I was unaware, the first time. As far as my children, I know they don't care. I will speak to my PO when I report. I can't afford to do jail time, however, getting up everymorning and doing community service is better than taking away from my family, money wise.
