A man in New Jersey is on six months unsupervised probation following a theft charge. The defendant has been making all of his payments, and has not committed any new offenses or even had a traffic or parking ticket. He has received a letter from the probation department indicating that he needs to come in for a meeting, which will occur roughly four months into his probation. Why would the probation department schedule a meeting before probation ends, if there isn't a problem?
