    Default At Home Breathalyzer Testing While on Probation

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: MI

    Im a student in Michigan, out of state from CT. I am on probation for my second MIP. I got approved to leave the state for summer and live at home. However, now that I am trying to find a place to do my breathalyzer testing I realize that there aren't any. I am assuming this must be because CT probation is structured differently. I have found places that do breathalyzer tests but I have two problems with that: I have an internship in NYC and I need to leave around 7:30 am and they aren't open that early and also NONE of them are open on Sundays and I often have to go blow on Sundays. I have tried to think of all kinds of ways to figure this out my final idea being purchasing a DOT approved breathalyzer with a printer (very expensive ~$800). I am totally willing to do this and blow when I am supposed to as if I were in Michigan. But do you know if probation officers allow this? He mentioned it once and said people often rent them to go on vacations and be able to comply with probation...but I feel like since he won't know if its actually me blowing into it he won't approve of it for 3 whole months.....has anyone had a similar situation or another possible solution? Or does anyone know anything about how probation works in CT and where they do testing? Thanks.

    If you have an officer to report to in CT, you need to ask the PO. If you don't, you need to contact the office. When a case is transferred, the new office tries to within reason, get you to comply with conditions as if you were in the residing jurisdiction. If that is not possible, the next step is to get your conditions met as they would if you were on paper in the new monitoring jurisdiction. Oh yeah, make sure that you aren't violating conditions by travelling to New York. You should need permission for that.

    They're not actually transferring my probation they're letting me go home for the summer as long as I comply with the terms of my probation in michigan. But I can't because there's no places that breathalyze everyday of the week or early enough...so I'm not really sure.
