Additional information is needed before an answer can be given. Are you on formal or informal (summary) probation. In other words do you report to a probation officer or to the probation department. Also, are there any travel restrictions imposed as part of your probation. Without knowing these details, it is impossible to give you an accurate answer.

Check your probation paperwork to see if there are any travel restrictions. They are very rare for misdemeanor probation.

Go to the Court, have the case sent to the judge, and ask the judge for permission.

Talk to your probation officer or bring a motion before the court/judge who sentenced you.

You can ask for early termination of probation if you have not had any violations during the probation period.

If you are on supervised probation, you need to tell your PO. If not, your only obligation is to notify the court of a new address.
