Probation and Early Release
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Idaho
I have completed all of my requirements of my probation. My last meeting was 15 days ago and my officer didn't give me a UA and submitted all of the paper work for my early release. I called him today and he told me in a nut shell to have a good life and he hopes to see me in the world not in his office the next time we meet. I am not sure if this means I am off of probation because it will take a while to get the magical letter in the mail. Or if this is a ploy to get me to go have a drink and then get called in. No meeting was set up with him for me to go back in or any instructions to call him after a certain period of time. So I am not sure since this is the first time (only other was with a underage DUI) that I am getting let off early.

If you are still on probation and are prohibited from drinking, don't.
Re: Probation and Early Release
You can close this thread not I got creative and called the courthouse and asked what the status on my paper work was. The judge signed off on it so that means I am off.
Thanks Mr.Knowitall for the response, even though I was not asking if it was ok for me to drink was asking if I was technically off probation. But I appreciate the response.
Re: Probation and Early Release
There's nothing "technical" about discharge from probation. Until the order of discharge is signed, you're on probation. Afterward you're off. No gray area.
