I was sentenced to work weekends for a vop, and I didn't do them. Is there jail time involved for 4 work weekends if I don’t know? How much?

You said your Probation was over, but then said you had a VOP. Which is it? Usually, when you are violated, the Judge resentences you to either a jail alternative and your Probation is then over or puts you back onto Probation to finish out your term. If you mean you termination date has passed, that usually means your Probation is over regardless of the pending VOP, but that's still up to the Judge as to what he/she wants to do about the matter.
