A: Not much to go on here, but apparently a Probation Officer (P.O.) has concerns about a violation of a condition of probation? It is a good idea to communicate with the P.O. It's a good idea to try to take the lead in communicating. If a person is unable to answer the phone, be sure to leave an appropriate voice mail requesting a call back. You can also go to the Probation Officer, with or without an appointment to try to talk to your P.O., or if unavailable perhaps the "Officer of the Day." You can leave a note. Keep trying. Poor communication cna lead to trouble.
