    Question Interstate Probation and a Dirty Urine

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: CT /NH
    My friend is on probation in NH from CT for a non-drug related offense. Even though he has no history of drug use, he does have an extensive record. His PO has drug tested him recently, and once he tested positive for marijuana, and then some time later (this week), he tested positive for marijuana and cocaine. The PO did not arrest him on the spot but said he is sending the report back to CT. He is also insisting that my friend transfer back to CT because his PO said he no longer wants to deal with him and if he stays, he will see to it he is arrested. We are unclear what this means. Does it mean that he has a greater chance of beating the dirty urine if he voluntarily goes back to CT, or is the PO threatening that he will "put the screws" to him on future offenses if he stays. This PO has been known to threaten my friend, and others I have known, with actions he did not end up taking. Can my friend be forced to return to CT? What does this mean? What should he do next?

    It means if your friend stays in NH, his PO is going to violate him and send him to the judge. If your friend goes willingly, the PO in CT will determine how the drug+ is dealt with.


    Can my friend be forced to return to CT?
    yes

    What does this mean?
    what does what mean?

    What should he do next?
    that is entirely up to him. You just got done saying this PO has made idle threats before so it sounds like your friend is willing to risk staying. Your friend must weigh the risks vs. benefit. Nobody here can. If he believes the PO, your friend might want to consider seeking a transfer back to CT.

    Does it make any difference to PO's/the system that my friend is holding a good job in NH, and has a place to live, and has none of that in CT? Is this ever taken into account?

    Sure it's taken into account but if the PO violates him, the judge will be the one taking it into account.

    given the good job, friend might consider speaking with an attorney to see if he can smooth things over with the PO.

    Also sounds like friend needs to understand how serious a little dope can be. It sounds like it could really screw up his life.

    So, unfortunately, is the fact that he not only has a house and a job but is an active part of the NH drug scene.

    Your friend has screwed himself by dropping dirty.

    He should start packing.
