Can my probation officer violate my probation for refusing to take a polygraph?

All actions are detailed in your probation agreement that you signed.  If there is a question on a polygraph and it is not on the agreement, you can request a hearing before the judge to explain why you feel you do not want to take a polygraph.  If you did nothing wrong, just take the polygraph.  Refusing to follow instructions from your PO is just asking for problems.

Shouldn't your probation officer help with this?

My son recently failed a drug test while on probation. It is his first violation of probation. He is in jail now and will be there for another 6 months waiting for a new public defender to be assigned to him and a hearing which is in Nov. The state is requesting he serve 20-30 months. Depending on what your crime was originally as well as the judge handling your case, will decide on what happens to you. If you were originally arrested for a drug crime, you will probably go to a drug rehab live-in facility. If your crime was not drug related, then you will probably serve time in jail. The length of time depends on the severity of the crime you were charged with and how many VOP's (violation of probations) you have had. My advise to you is to call your probation officer and inquire about going to a drug rehab. program and admit you have a problem. If you don't, he will just soon have you picked up anyways. It would look better for you to show you are wanting help of your own free will.

Most of the time before you are subject to a polygraph with a law enforcement agency, you have filled out a questionnaire with questions such as drug use, un-deteced crimes you have committed, have you ever been fired, and so on.  The polygraph is another way to compare the answers that you gave them previously (probably at least 3 months ago) to check your integrity.

Not likely, probbly probation or a fine.

Ask your probation officer...\nDon't depend on answers in this medium for important information such as this.

I am not familiar with the traffic laws of Australia, but I would assume that you can refuse any ticket.  However, just because you refuse it, doesn't mean that's it's not valid.  By refusing it, you're setting yourself up for additional fines and/or action taking by the local law enforcement.\n\nIf you disagree with the decision of the officer issuing the ticket, it's better to take it up with a judge in court, rather than with the officer on site of the situation.

NO,what you ask can't be done or if it can not easily.What happens in some of these "ROADSIDE PLEA BARGINS" is the officer will write you for a bogus charge or to cover himself he might ask in a certain voice inflection "ARE SURE YOU WERE WEARING YOUR SEATBELT?" and if you "GET THE MESSAGE" you will get a ticket for the no points charge . In Va. the infraction of choice seems to be "FAILURE TO OBEY A TRAFFIC SIGN" which is MUCH CHEAPER and no points! hope this helps

Here in Texas it is up to the probation officer to revoke the probation. If the violation was minor then I would think that the probation officer would use what they call intermediate sanctions which would punish the probationer without revoking probation. Some of the sanctions that could be applied would be to do community service, take defensive driver course, or even order him to not drive for however long a time the Po wants or considers is enough punishment. It also depends on how your bro gets along with his PO because most of the time if they dont like their parolees, PO will revoke them at any little thing just to get them off their case load.\nAbout him going to jail, did he report it to his PO? PO get daily jail sheets where they check to see if anyone on probation got arrested. Maybe it was an oversight on the PO's behalf or maybe the PO just chose to chew his ass out when he reports but not revoke him. Either way, Good Luck.\nP.S. If he were already in a revocation hearing then that is when the judge would probably listen to any recommendations the PO has , like keeping him on probation for a longer time but not going back to prison.

One of the standard conditions of probation is that the probationer gives up their rights against search and seizure.  We are allowed to search the probationers' homes at any reasonable time.  We can also search their vehicles, work lockers, and school lockers.  If a probationer refuses to allow the probation officers to search, the probationer is in violation of their probation, and can face further sanctions.

*** call the probation officer right away and let her know you're not living there.  it's REALLY not gonna look good if she thinks you're lyin to her.

Your daughter needs to re-read the terms and conditions of her probation.  It's a standard term of probation that the probationer is not allowed to have contact with anyone on probation or parole unless it is an immediate family member.  \n\nAnother standard term is that the probationer is not allowed to consume alcohol or any controlled substance unless legally prescribed for them, not is the probationer to associate with anyone using alcohol or a controlled substance.\n\nDoes your daughter want to be revoked so that she can serve the rest of her term in jail?  I hope her PO is doing urine screens every week on her.

No state has any laws that can force someone to take a lie detector test.  Because they are not 100% accurate they are not admissible in court, so they are really only used voluntarily when someone wants to try to clear themselves in an investigation.

Absolutely not.  No US probation agency will accept probationary duties pursuant to a German sentencing order related to a standard bar fight.
