If a condition of your probation is that you pay your fines - yes. You are in violation of probation (VOP) and can suffer the consequences. Probation s NOT a 'get out of jail free' card!

Addendum:It is not uncommon, though, for parolees and probationers to not have completely paid their restitution. In this event, the remaining amount is often sent to third party collections, at which point legal (civil) action can be taken.

In theory, YES! You could be on your very last hour of your probation and still go to jail on a VOP if you don't abide by its terms and conditions. This includes payment of any fines, restitution, court costs, and probation fees. However, this scenario is unlikely to occur: After your probation has expired, any financial obligations are usually converted into a civil order of restitution (effectivly a civil judgment againt you).

Failing to pay court ordered fees as a condition of your probation could result in your probation being revoked, and possibly being remanded to jail to serve the sentence.

Maybe. It is up to the discretion of the sentencing Judge.
