    Default Probation travel waiver

    Just went to court yesterday. Asked for and received deferred adjudication for first offense indecent exposure - a misdemeanor charge. 1 year probation, 24 sessions with a private counselor, DNA swab, periodic ua's (this court requires for every sentence), and $500 fine. No priors or trouble of any kind until this.

    Will not meet with the probation officer until this coming Monday. The standard form says I cannot leave Dallas County without written permission. However, my employer is scouting for additional locations in Tarrant County (adjoins Dallas) and in Collin County (also adjoining Dallas). Plus ALL of my family lives in Tarrant County. I will not be able to stay employed with this firm and not be able to travel whenever they deem necessary to other locations. If I tell them of my conviction - I'm out of a very nice job. Plus, I'd like to go visit my family - especially my elderly parents without moving heaven and earth.

    Any advice on what to do or how to approach?

    Thanks!

    Default Permission from Probation

    Discuss your situation with your probation officer on Monday. You'll probably be given permission to travel to adjacent counties for work-related duties.

    Ok - I can deal with the work-related. But what about the family issue? Is it ok Dad - hope your heart medicine holds up, take Mom with the walker and come drive 22 miles to my house?
