:confused::confused:a friend of mine is on probation in Georgia.he violated probation and left the state.he went to Louisiana and was arrested for an old dwi warrant,spent 8 days in jail then was put on 8 months of probation in La. Georgia did not extradite him. T actually have a few questions about this situation. Willthe violation warrant in Georgia ever turn into a felony warrant?if so ,how long till that happens? Will the Louisiana p.o. ever find out about rhe Georgia probation?if so,what charges would he have put on him?

Yes, the probation violation in Georgia will turn into a warrant as he violated his probation. Whether it is a felony warrant would be determined if the conviction in Georgia was a felony. The warrant does not expire by the way for probation violations.

And yes, the Louisiana PO will find out about the Georgia probation when they punch his name into their computer - the bells will definitely go off.

Hello mom:

He'll finish one probation and then he'll finish the other. Simple, really.
