    Question Probation Violation Information Request

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Michigan

    I had previously been sentenced to 1 year county jail time, and released after 90 days after a review by the 58th district court of hudsonville michigan. The terms of my probation were typical, no alcohol/drugs/ SCRAM for 90 days after release, counseling. I had violated by blowing a .04 1 year later, and sentenced to 35 days incarceration. Upon release of original terms, I had visited with my probation officer and she had stated that I would have to participate in a color-call in system, in which if my color is called I have to report within a 3 hour window. I live an hour and a half away which I told her is not possible for me to comply. This does not seem legal to me due to the fact that I do not even live in the county, and was not part of my original terms of probation. Now I have missed 3 appointments of couneling due to the fact I am in school full-time, and had been trying to schedule counseling around my school. I am awaiting yet another violation date to see the judge. What rights do I have, and have any rights been violated by forcing me to comply with such demands?
    Thank you for your help in this matter.

    You have the "right" to comply with the terms of your probation. Problems should be worked out in advance. If you are called in for a probation violation hearing, be prepared to thoroughly document your excuses for violating your probation.
