I think you need to find an attorney to defend you, and I am absolutely certain that he will want to know a lot more about the case than what you've said here.  You can find qualified lawyers in a number of places, including our website, http://attorneypages.com

Whether you violated your probation will probably depend on what happens with these charges.  In many places, you are required to report any arrest to your probation officer; if that is so for you (and your paperwork should tell you), make that report right now if you haven't already done it.


IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Answer(s) provided above are for general information only. The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
