Q: I am on probation and recently became homeless. I applied for a transfer but was denied due to another convicted felon
Living at address. When I contacted my probation officer from other county she said I have 24 hrs to find somewhere else to go. I haven't found anywhere yet. Can she send police to get me or will there be a revocation hearing or what?
A: You need to communicate as much as possible with your probation officer. They may give you a break if you communicate well with them. If they believe you have violated, she could file a report, and then they would be brought before a judge, and he would be entitled to a revocation hearing in the future.
