    violation of probation
    My boyfriends ex-wife was just arrested for shoplifting. She is in the first year of a five year prbation sentence. Her offense for being on probation was writing checks and forging signatures on $18,000. She stole the checks from a previous employer. I'm not sure what the actual charge was. I do know that is was a felony. What will happen to her now since she has been arrested for another crime?

    Since she was arrested for another crime she will more than likely be violated and have to go through a probation violation hearing. She could end up doing her original time or she could continue on her present probation. This will all hinge upon what her original sentence was and the original judge as she will be appearing before him again shortly. She apparently likes to take things that do not belong to her...

    I'm confused by this post - in your other post early today she's not the ex-wife, she's the current wife and the husband was questioning the divorce waiting period - and the post was from the husband's point of view, same name.

    Is this the same person?

    Her probation could very well be revoked.

    It is for my boyfriend. I figured it would be less confusing to tell it from his point of view. They are currently still legaly married. The divorce papers will not be filed for about 2 more weeks. So she is his current wife, but in the process of divorce. I guess I'm making things difficcult... Sorry :)

    It just makes it frustrating for the volunteers (me, in particulary) who spend the time and effort trying to help and then find out the posted circumstances they have addressed are not the actual circumstances.

    I posted a rather lengthy, comprehensive answer to you and then found this thread - ?

    It happens for all sorts of reasons - it's just frustrating.
