    Default What Will Happen if You Walk Out of a Meeting With Your Probation Officer

    So for whatever reason really, if i decided to walk out of probation once inside office can they stop or will they just call the cops or revoke me?

    A lot depends on the specific facts. It also depends on the law of the state where this takes place, and you didn't mention the state. If I assume you are a person on probation, then the issue would be why you were in the office to begin with and whether you left despite the probation officer telling you to stay. In at least most states probation officers have the power to arrest probationers. If your act of leaving the office would result in a probation violation the officer quite likely could arrest you on the spot for it and then seek termination of your probation.

    Thank you for such a quick reply, much appreciated. Yes i am on probation and i am in Texas, long story short the situation would pretty much be him saying something i really really don't like and just walking out because he has already given me 3 month ISF sanction and i have to sign papers Thursday and turn myself in Friday so Thursday if he's being a dick i may just walk out. I highly doubt i will i know better but i have had plenty of P.O's and he is by far an un called for ass hole. Thank you.

    You have already been violated. Based on the circumstances that you have provided, a well written violation detailing what your PO could describe as noncompliance towards court conditions could easily lead to a complete revocation of your probation and jail time.
