That depends on your Probation Officer as well as your actions going forward.  Did you call and explain?  Did you try and re schedule?  It is in your best interest to go and speak with him or her in person and explain why you missed and see if you can reschedule.  Apologize if necessary.  Good luck.

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.
