Nothing prevents a probationer from filing a motion and requesting early termination of probation. Without more facts, it's impossible to know if you have a good argument for early termination. You should consult with your attorney.

Thats on my phone my charge is receiving stolen property
If they obtained a warrant, they can use whatever they find. There are other evidentiary issues, but in general whatever they find can be used. Your attorney can, however, still look at whether or not the warrant should have been issued.
much more info is needed.
what did you do and what did they do?
were they trying to arrest you and you were resisting?
i personally do not take cases against governmental entities but some lawyers do.
The warrants have a 10,000$ bail will they take me in if I put my self on calender?
The best way forward is to retain an experienced and ethical criminal defense attorney and then appear on the warrants. Whether or not you will be taken into custody primarily depends on the nature and circumstances of the offense and your personal history and characteristics.

I did some work at her house. She didn't want to pay what the price was. Left the work and now she is accusing me of stealing her house deeds.
Anyone may make any type of accusations: the facts are these are just allegations.
She may call the police yet, the police will investigate that matter and in order to charge would need to gather enough evidence for the charges to be approved.

I am working on a podcast. Append: Can Brian Laundrie communicate to his parents LEGALLY through his attorney while on the run? I heard conflicting answers. Also, is the attorney legally accountable for letting LE and FBI know Laundrie has been in communication with them?

i guess he could, but I would advise parents to keep their distance.
i assume he didn't tell them where he would be so they would not be in that position.
He doesn’t respond to calls or emails. Doesn’t explain anything. Didn’t try at all. Works for prosecutors and always wants to represent me without me there and is making me take a deal I don’t want saying it’s the best deal.

it is always best to have an attorney.
however, if you can't afford one the court will appoint the public defender on any criminal case.
the reason fees are so high is that most cases are not resolved with one appearance.

I am just trying to study some and was wondering if someone could just lose their constitutional rights?
Keep studying. If you do, you will find that one can never lose their constitutional rights. They might be diminished if you go to jail or prison, or other similar circumstances, but a U.S. citizen maintains her civil rights right up to death.
If someone went on a high speed chase with people in the car who consented to running from the police but then when caught accused the driver of forcefully holding them captive. But the victims not refuse to testify again the person in a criminal court,can the charge be dropped
There is no requirement that the victim testify in court, and depending on what other evidence there is, the charge may still be proven.
