If you plead no contest for a Misdemeanor B and are serving probation were you convicted of the crime?
Pleading "nolo contende" to anything signifies that you chose not to contest the charges are filed. For all intents and purposes, that's just as good as pleading guilty but without the soul cleansing honesty.
And yea, for probation purposes it is as good as committing another offense. Whether or not the P.O. chooses to violate the offender will depend on what exactly the offense was.

Does NC extradite for misdemeanor charges?
To my knowledge there is no such thing as "Felony" or "Misdemeanor" probation violation.

Can you travel to Puerto Rico with a misdemeanor?
It depends on where you are coming from. If you are travelling from elsewhere within the US, a misdemeanor will not prohibit travel (unless you are on active probation or parole with travel restrictions.) If you are travelling from another country, you will need to check with your embassy in the US to find out if your conviction will prohibit entry into the US.
Are you a felon if you did probation but no prison time?
Yes, you can still be classified as a felon even if you completed probation without serving time in prison. If you were convicted of a felony offense, that designation remains regardless of whether you served time or were placed on probation. The specifics can vary by jurisdiction, so it's important to understand local laws regarding felony status and its implications.
Can you travel to another country while you are on probation with no criminal conviction?
If you are ON PROBATION you HAVE been convicted. CONVICTED = GUILTY. If you had not been convicted you would have been found NOT guilty and you wouldn't be serving a sentence of PROBATION. Before travelling anywhere (including out-of-state) check with your probation officer or the court - OR - how about this? Read your probation papers to see if you have any travel restrictions imposed on you.- - - - - - - -You actually CAN be on probation with no conviction with certain deals they make with first time offenders. You can be sentenced to probation to have your record cleared after the probated term is up and you don't accumulate any new charges in that time.Added: The scenario immediately above, while correct (known as Probation Before Judgement - a more rarely used form of probation), does not address the situation posed in the question.Even under the above scenario the offender receives certain guidellines and rules from the court which they MUST follow or run the risk of being in violation. If one of those conditions is a travel restriction - to violate it would cause you to violate your probation.
If you are on probation can you apply to become a police officer?
You can apply if you wish. But "probation" means that you are still serving a sentence from whatever offense you committed and it is doubtful that any agency would hire you until after your probabation period/sentence was successfully completed. Even after you successfully complete probation SOME agencies will overlook VERY MINOR misdemeanor or traffic offense charges but by no means is that a general rule.

Prisons are where felony offenders go to serve their sentences consisting of at least one year. Local jails are where misdemeanor offenders are housed. HOWEVER - in some cases - when jails are overcrowded, misdemeanor inmates may be 'farmed out' to prisons who have more room to house the inmates.
