i think i violated my probation...

i have like 100 hours of community service for the next two years to complete... i don't have a set time i have to complete them by... i don't have a work schedule at my community service place, i'm told i can come in whenever i can make it, but apparently the stupid community service officer for my city sent a non-compliance notice to my p.o for not doing any hours in november... wtf... how can this be... i don't even know how this probation shit really works... i don't know if its up to my p.o to violate me... or if she is forced by law to violate me ... fuck ... i'm so pissed... i want some xanax right the fuck now....
 
your po is the one who violates you and it's at his or her discretion. don't catch a vop. sittin in jail til your vop hearing date on no bail ain't fun.
 
call your po up and let them know that you were under the impression that you could complete the hours anytime within the next 2 years. If says no you have to do so many hours a month tell em your really sorry you really didn't know that and from now on will make sure you do however many a month. I'm pretty sure your po will tell you it doesn't matter when you do them or not. Or if he says yeah your supposed to do so and so many tell him it wont happen again and its not like you didnt do them cause you want to go to jail.

you could also try and get the court transcripts or whatever from your sentencing cause im pretty sure unless the judge says you must do so many a month you can do them whenever
 
Thanks guys, It's all sorted out, it was a big missunderstanding by the community service officer, not my P.O, MY P.O is chill as fuck!
