After sentencing, your
file is sent to the 71A District Court Probation Department for
processing. Your first appointment with your probation
officer is a very important meeting. This is called your
"First Report" to probation, which occurs immediately after
sentencing.It is at this time
that the probation officer will gather information about your.
The probation officer will be particularly interested in any
current legal charges in addition to the one for which you are
starting probation, your legal record, and the past and present
psychological treatment history. The terms and conditions
of your probation will be explained to you during your First
Report. Program referrals will also be explained to you.
You are required to report to your
probation officer once a month. Report days are held on
the first three Tuesdays only. Report times are between
8:00 am and 11:45 am, and 1:00 pm and 4:30 pm.
You are not allowed to leave the State
of Michigan without your probation officers permission.
