Not enough information about the case is known. There are two possible meanings:
(1) that the court is affirming the imposition of the probation sentence.
OR -
(2) that the court is withdrawing/cancelling the probation sentence and imposing the corresponding jail sentence to be served behind bars.

The statement of the rule of law in this case is Subsequent imposition of new conditions or terms to a sentence or order of probation violates a defendant's constitutional right against double jeopa?
The quesion is worded in a very confusing manner. HOWEVER - if I understand it correctly, the question is about a sentence of probation and what future conditions may be imposed on that sentence. If that is the case: A sentence of probation is a sentence imposed AFTER the defendant is found GUILTY of an offense. Certain strict prohibitions and conditions are imposed upon the defendant in return for this lenient sentence of probation. BUT - if the probationer violates these terms and condition he may be subject to further, more stringent, action by the court, up to and including incarceration for the entire term of the original sentence. This is not double jeapordy! This is a case of the defendant spitting in the face of the court which offered him lenient conditions for release into the general community by continuing to commit other offenses, after being found guilty.

Is probation officer an officer of the court?
Probably - although this may vary in different Legal Jurisdictions In England and Wales this term is used as a consequence of a Probation Officer supervising those subject to various court orders under terms set by those courts, with a duty on the probation officer to report any failings to the court. However as Probation Officers are no longer directly employed by Courts, they also have to answer to directions set by their employing authority which might cause conflict with the expectations and requirements of the court(s) Probation Officers also supervise people on release from the custodial part of a criminal sentence and although the sentences are (obviously) imposed by a court the oversight of the supervision is managed by a Government Department - in England and Wales - The Ministry of Justice.

Sometimes it IS better to just go to jail and get it over with. You can present a petition/motion to the court for "Re-Consideration of Sentence" setting forth your reason(s) for wishing to do so.
