If they have 'reasonable cause to believe' that the person named in the warrant is in the residence, they may enter and look JUST FOR HIM. They may not conduct a search for anything else BUT, if during the search they see/observe any conduct, or any items, of an unlawful nature IN PLAIN SIGHT they may take proper enforcement actions arising from those 'plain sight' observations. In your probation contract it says that they can search you or your residence at any time, they don't even need a warrent.
police need a search warrant to search anything. it doesnt matter if youre on probation
Another View: On the other hand - your Probation Officer (who, depending on the laws of your jurisdiction may, or may not, possess 'police powers') has access to your residence, without a warrant, in order to verify the fact that you are not engaging in any prohibited or illegal activities in violation of your probation.
More information is necessary for this question. Are you referring to an actual POLICE officer or are you referring to your Probation Officer? Your PO DOES have the authority, but a police officer, unless they are acting under the authority of a warrant probably cannot. There is not enough information disclosed to know what the situation was.

Yes, there are instances where a legal search may take place - it depends upon the circumstances existing at the time.
no. he can communicate with the police department any time he wants to and have them search your home any time he feels necessary.

You can be held until the violation is resolved.
If you have an out of state warrant for probation vialation, you must present yourself in that state to have it takin care of.
Possibly. Your probation officer has all the power. If they feel you are a danger to the community they CAN violate your probation and if you fail to come in voluntarly, a warrant will be issued.
It depends on how his sentence of probation is structured. Child Support is a civil offense, not a criminal offense, but if he flees to avoid the bench warrant THAT definitely would be a violation.

A Probation Violation Warrant will be issued. Your probation could get revoked and you could be sentenced to a term of incareration in jail or prison.
Question is unclear - but - are you asking what will happen if you are on probation and commit another offense for which an arrest warrant is issued (???) - It most likely will result in your violating your probation for the original sentence and very probably mean that you could be remanded to jail for violation of parole (VOP).
A White warrant is an arrest warrant that is issued typically for a probation or parole violation, or someone who absconds (flees) from supervision. Typically it is also a warrant which has ineligibility for bail.
