    Default Drinking While On Probation

    I was recently given two years probation, and the charge was with alcohol involved. Im in VA, and had a few questions.

    The judge said I cant drink, but on my probation paper it says nothing about that, Im guessing this is just not listed?

    I set up a meeting with my probation officer later this month, is it possible though I can be tested for alcohol before that date?

    And does my probation officer need probable cause to search my home?

    Any help would be nice, thanks a lot.

    Default Re: Probation Questions

    If you've been ordered not to drink, don't do it.

    Probation officers can search your home as a condition of probation. Probation is a privilege, not a right. Most probationers, though, don't have their homes searched.
