If you were placed on supervised probation and failed to report for a period of time in jail it would already be a probation violation. If you were doing jail instead of community service your failure to report could also cause problems which could result in a violation. There are really too many variables to accurately answer your question. One would need to know what level you were for sentencing and what the judgment was. Either way, it is not good.
