Of course you should. You have been convicted of a crime and that is what put you on probation in the first place. When you have terms of probation that are required to be followed these are put in place by a court system and a community that showed you leniancy for your crime. If they weren't showing you leniancy you would be in jail or prison and not on probation. Failure to follow the rules set forth for your probation agreement is unfair to the community that showed you this leniancy. Furthermore, if your probation officer finds out that you violated something in the agreement and did not come clean about it, you will be much more likely to be given a harsher penalty when you are given a probation violation. If you do decide to tell the probation officer, you will likely be shown more leniancy with the court if the probation officer decides to violate you. In some cases, the probation officer may choose not to violate you because you were up-front with them about the situation. Instead they may add additional requirements to your probation where you have to show up and prove you werent drinking instead or alternatively make you participate in a chemical dependency program if you haven't been ordered to already. It might be helpful when you break the news to probation that you offer some sort of detailed plan to make sure it doesn't happen again as well as offer to take any additional steps the probation officer might suggest.

Does your probation officer have to give you 30 days to get clean?
No
The question is can the probation officer can drug test you if you haven't gone to court yet and the probation papers haven't been discussed or signed by myself?

Do you get tested for drugs the first time at the probation officer?
It could happen so don't be surprised. Just get honest if it will be positive. Don't say it will be clean when you know it will not.
You were on probation for 18 months after a misdemeanor How do you know if your record is clean?
What is meant by "clean?" Probation(in lieu of jail) IS the sentence for whatever offense you committed. Your criminal record will always show it as a conviction. Simply by completing a term of probation your record is not "cleared" or made "clean."
How do you find out if your record is clean enough to be a probation officer?
The only way is to obtain the application requirements or to apply yourself. However if you have any felony offenses on your record you might as well not waste your time.
What will happen if you are on probation for possession of marijuana and get caught drinking as a minor?
Depending on the conditions of your probation, it could be as grave as revocation of probation....safest to stay clean and free
If you are on probation in Indiana what state can you go to and not get caught?
There is no sure way to not get caught. If you run, you will be taking the chance of getting caught at some point. I would suggest a better idea would be to stay, keep your nose clean, and get off probation. Then you can go wherever you want without that hanging over your head.
What degrees are required to become a juvenile probation officer in Florida?
I don't think there's necessarily a degree, you just have to be 19, have a HS/GED diploma, clean record, willing to have a background check/health screening and undergo training.
Should you keep a lawyer on retainer while on a term of federal probation after being released from a six months federal sentence if you are not doing anything against probation rules?
The question calls for an opinion. I would not go to the expense of maintaining an attorney on retainer unless there were some extraordinary circumstnaces that existed that might call for it. If you can keep your nose clean for the term of your probation, you should not need an attorney to 'baby-sit' you.
What happens if you fail the TASC drug testing program and your not on probation already?

If you live with someone on probation do you still have your rights?
Yes, you still have your rights when living with someone on probation. Probation applies only to the individual under supervision, not to their family members or housemates. However, certain restrictions may apply within the household to ensure compliance with the terms of probation.
