A: If someone has two warrants for violating probation and one for failure to appear, the legal process can vary based on the circumstances and the court's decisions. If the individual has promptly notified their probation officer about the incorrect court date and agreed to surrender, it demonstrates a willingness to cooperate. However, the outcome at the second court date will depend on various factors, including the individual's criminal history, the nature of the probation violations, and the court's discretion. They may face consequences such as additional probationary terms, modified conditions, or, in more severe cases, incarceration
