    Default Misdemeanor Probation Violation

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: NY

    Hi i am a 17 year old male recently put on probation as a part of a plea agreement for criminal msichief in the fourth. i originally was being charged with Petit Larceny, Criminal Mischief, and Burglary in the 3rd. i was Youthful Offender mandatory on the Felony and final plea was entered as a plea of guilty for the Criminal Mischief.

    6 months into my probation i am being violated for not working 35 hours a week or being in school( i already have my GED and i cant afford college) and breaking an 8 oclock curfew a few times.

    so my question is this:

    How much time am i looking at if thats all im being violated for?

    ive passed every drug test ive taken in the last 6 months and been paying my restitution on time every month so far. there isnt any available jobs where i live and being under 18 it limits what i can do anyway.

    thank you for any and all advice. thank you. if more information is needed just ask and i will provide it.

    call your probation officer and see what he wants to do. the court offered you a great deal with easy to follow rules and you chose not to go with what you agreed to. you better hope you do not end up in jail or charged with that felony

    BS. I paid for school on grants and a lot of student loans. These are available to everybody, it is up to you if you actually want to make something of yourself.

    Do your time in the military or school and keep your nose cleen and you will live a happy, fulfilling life. It's not to late to get going in the right direction but what you do right now will either make or ruin your entire adult life.

    I think he was looking for objective advice, as apposed to your subjectivity, on the matter at hand (i.e. probabtion). Insinuating that he doesn't want to make something of himself, because he possibly is not eligable for student loans or grants, is bringing too much bias into this post.

    "Do your time in the military" -- If you consider this, do not do it on a whim...they will promise you the world.
