    Default Probation Officer Forbids Contact with My Long Time Girlfriend

    I am currently on Probation for a felony charge that happened before I met my current girlfriend. I have been with her for 4 years and we have a child together. 6 months ago I was arrested for domestic violence against her. The charges were just recently dismissed as well as the no contact order that was a condition of bond. However when I met with my PO after this she told me that I could still not have contact. Is there anything I can do about this?

    Yes. You can stay away from your girlfriend until your probation ends.

    Oh, you mean is there something you can do to force your PO to rescind the no contact order? No.

    You can politely ask your P.O. to change his mind. You can talk to your lawyer about whether it would make sense to try to bring a motion before the sentencing court to get permission to resume contact with your girlfriend, should your probation officer continue to say "no".

    A PO's job is to monitor your compliance. Assist you with finding resources that would enable you to complete your court conditions. Assess any and all foreseeable hindrances to hindering your satisfactory completion to your court order. You, ill advisedly, chose to do actions that resulted in an arrest for a domestic violence arrest. As a result, you have given your PO no other choice but to put this restriction on you for not only your safety, but your partners as well.
