Minor in Consumption While on Probation
My question involves criminal law for the state of: TEXAS
I received a citation for a Minor in Consumption and was given 20 days to contact the court. I am 12 days short from finishing the minor probation, (meaning i was not given a PO) for a drug paraphernalia charge. the tickets are in different cities and different counties. what do i need to do? would it be wrong to not notify the court and let things play through for my last 12 days. would they know that i was given a citation? and any suggestions?

ever hear the saying "close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades"?
while you may try to sneak under the radar, they can retroactively charge you with violating your probation so do whatever you want and hope it works out for you.
In other words, by lying and being deceitful, you could actually escape the punishment you deserve but getting beyond the time limit you are concerned with does not prevent them from coming back and charging you.
