Can I violate probation with a misdemeanor possession of cannabis?
My boyfriend picked me up from work and then he was pulled over yesterday and the cop noticed a strong odor of marihuana coming from the car. He later found a joint and continued searching the car. My boyfriend took the blame and said that the joint belongs to me and that I had nothing to do with it that I just got out work. Cop checked my background and noticed that I'm on probation for Grand Theft 3rd degree. He didn't take me to jail, but he gave me a "notice to appear in court with possession of weed". Would this violate my probation even though I wasn't the driver and my boyfriend took full responsibility for it? I still have to go to court for this, but what should I do? Should I inform my P.O? Wouldn't the charges get drop if my boyfriend testifies in court that it belonged to him not me?
