Q: does a probation officer in Denver Colorado have the authority to modify or change the conditions of probation?
I'm the property manager of a local motel. My wife& I were hired as a team,only she was terminated after the owner found out that wife had filed a complaint with the U.S. D.O.L. &found owner in violation and an assessment was made for collection of back wages. That 9 months ago. New mngrs were guests that had fallen behind in rent. They have intercepted mail, thrown away mail from our auto insurance & our policy was cancelled. They have told lies about us to Lakewood police dept and every person that walks in the door. I have saved several incidents to prove these accusations from security films. They most recently called my PO and told her I was selling drugs & not reporting all income. My PO stopped by&. was told that I was not here and was no longer the Property Manager. Now im being violated& sent to DOC if I am not living somewhere else with a new job so they can garnish wages in 30 days. owner called P.O. after which I was fired & kicked out. P.O. now believes Im lying

This is a direct legal question. Justa's Q&A is not intended to provide specific legal opinions or advice because this would create an attorney-client relationship. You will need to contact an attorney directly.
As a general rule probation officers have limited powers related to the oversight of the parole. That is, the officer can approve, revoke or provide conditions for continued compliance. There is also an office appeal system.
