My frind live live in Texas and he's going to court to sign his papers for his probation. He want to do his probation in a different city from which he live. Will his probation transfer?

You would need to seek court permission. Ask that question before signing. But have a compelling reason, such as the support system is better in the new place. They'd be inclined to want to work with it if they perceive there's a better chance of successful probation due to the presence of a job or family members.

Hello a:

When I was on probation, I could live anywhere in the state WITHOUT permission..
