    Default Probation Almost Over, What Next

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Washington.
    Hi, I have been on probation for almost five years for a DUI conviction in the State of Washington. My probation is over next month. I've been good and have paid all fines and have stayed out of trouble for the past four years and eleven months. I have been on administrative probation four the past four and a half years. I have not seen or heard from my probation officer this whole time. My question is what happens next? Do I have to go to court one last time? Does the day just come and go and I get some paperwork in the mail? I have left a voicemail with my probation officer, just thought i'd seek answers here while waiting on her. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Typically there is a hearing at the end of your probation at which time the court will confirm that there have been no violations and, assuming that it finds none, close out the case. You can try contacting the probation officer or court about whether such a hearing has been scheduled. Make sure that they have your current address, so that you would get a court notice if one is sent by mail.

    Cool thanks for your reply! I've left voice mail the last two days with my probation officer. No return calls as of yet! Not sure what's up! Maybe I'll contact the court.
