Is my probation officer allowed to discuss my case with anyone he wants to?

Hello keatra:

Maybe.

But, you'll have to tell me more if you want help. Tell me exactly what he said and to whom, and what happened as a result?

He can go to your work place and introduce hisself and check to see if you are working.

He can go to your neighbors and ask questions about you to see if you are following your probation rules

As excon said, who did he talk to and about what part of it

He told my landlord who happens to be his grandfather I was a drug user because I was caugt a few years ago with a tank of anhydres amonia, I have never been found with any drugs and even though some relate the gas with drugs it isn't a drug charge.

Hello again, keatra:

Sounds like it's a small town. If so, it's going to be hard to keep your status quiet.

Nonetheless, although I think the PO is WRONG, I don't think what he did is ILLEGAL. If the landlord kicked you OUT because of what he said, that would be a different matter. But just telling him stuff, even if it's not exactly correct, is what people do every day.
