    Theft Charge on Top of DUI Probation
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Indiana

    I was charged for a DUI on November 17th. Today is December 6th and I was caught shoplifting a cardigan from Target.
    A cop did come to issue me a ban from Target, and the AP security guard told me he is going to press charges. When I was arrested for my DUI, I served the 48 hours in jail without bond. I haven't been given a probation officer yet. The DUI is from September 2013 but I didn't go to court for it until September 2014. If Target presses charges, is this a probation violation since I hadn't started my probation yet? I am almost 7 months pregnant and the idea of going to jail anytime soon is pretty intimidating.

    I think your probation started when the judge said "You're on probation."

    You should have thought of that before you shoplifted.
