Further probation or jail. Those are the options.

There will be a hearing before a judge to determine if your probation should be revoked. If the judge decides to revoke your probation, he could sentence you for the original charge and then you will have a conviction on your record.

Typically you could be incarcerated or probation might be reset.

Failure to report is generally a violation of probation unless you were incarcerated or in the hospital.
