QUESTION
Is it possible for the PO to be very stern about what transpired but still give you one more chance?
Asked on Jan 23rd, 2013 on DUI/DWI - Georgia
More details to this question:
If a person is on house arrest and they have been "good" and there are overwhelming circumstances with family health that caused them to "slip up" and drink one night, would the PO automatically say you are in violation?

Violation is violation. The PO's response might be mitigated by the circumstances.

When on is on probation, it is really up the judge what happens, although some judges will defer to the prosecutor for offers. Hire a lawyer who can help you explain your violation and help you gather the proof to make it a more sympathetic situation to which they can relate.

The PO has a lot of latitude just like a cop. Cops do not arrest everyone that is breaking the law. A PO can work with someone if they want to do so.

He could. It will be up to the PO.
