I'm not certain what your question is. Much will depend on the kind of violation and the position of the prosecutor and probation officer. The first step is to try to get her released on bod, or to schedule a quick hearing on the VOP.
When probation is revoked, the court can impose any sentence that could have been imposed originally on the defendant at the time of their first sentencing. This means the defendant could be sentenced up to and including the maximum exposure for the original crime.
You need to retain counsel ASAP.
