Why do you think you need unsupervised probation for the remaining 5 years of your term? If a Judge sentenced you to 10 years probation and a huge fine, I'm sure he's going to stick with his original sentence for you regardless of how "good" you have been these past 5 years. He must have felt that the 10 years was necessary considering your circumstances. To want an unspervised probation sounds like you want to do something like leave the state totally, or do something shady to me, but then that's just me thinking here.

I would buckle down and pay off that fine as soon as possible and then in a few years go back and ask the Judge again. Right now only 5 years into your probation and not enough paid off (not even half) I really don't think he's going to go for it. You've only paid the equivalent of $2,200 a year or $183 a month so if I were the Judge I wouldn't be too impressed.

BTW, I worked in criminal law offices in South Florida for over 10 years as a paralegal.
