My question involves criminal law for the state of: MA
Hi,
As part of my probation, I was ordered to complete an alcohol evaluation. My probation/court documents made no mention of me having to stay alcohol free.
I completed this alcohol evaluation with an alcohol counselor, and was all set to be discharged after a few months once I passed a breath test.
However, at this point my probation officer ordered me to attend further sessions, and mentioned that I have to stay alcohol free for the duration of my probation.
Therefore, I am wondering if I have any legal rights in this regard? Surely if I completed an evaluation with a trained alcohol counselor then my probation officer cannot overrule that? Or is it up to the probation officer to decide on the conditions?
Looking forward to hearing some replies.
Thanks
