While you're at the bar, have your friends sign your aa sheet, the operative term is anonymous

Asked or told? Is it part of your probation? If so, your PO can ask the judge to revoke your probation. Hit one a few times on your one day off, then talk to him about it being a hardship for you to attend. Offer to be available for testing. If you're in the areas under the jurisdiction of the Second or Seventh District Court, New York or Tennessee, you can't be forced to attend. Courts in these areas have ruled that AA is at least "religious in nature" and violates the Establishment Clause.

Justin, do you like being in jail? If not, go to the meetings. While you are at it, learn to live without that which got you into trouble to begin with. There is a good chance that if you don't find a better drink of choice, the next time you get to appear before a judge, there may not be a parole for you because the court may feel that you just didn't learn from the last time. Freedom is one thing, being abusive of freedom is something else. The court has a right, and an obligation to protect everyone else from you, if you will not stay within the rules of society game.

If it is a condition of your probation I suggest you grab your bootstraps and get to a meeting.
Take it from someone who's watched the snowball roll down the hill and crush a loved one - do what they tell you to do WHEN they tell you to do it for as long as it takes to get back on track. It doesn't matter if YOU think you need it - They think you do. Jump when they say jump. Yes sir!
Probation violation will result in you going back to jail to finish out the remainder of your sentence. Unless you enjoyed your original visit - doing what it takes to remain free to work full time should be of utmost importance.
This is your lesson in handling the BS life throws at you. Don't blow it ... or you will be sitting in a cell wondering why you just didn't go to a freaking meeting. "Oh why didn't I ... "

You will be violated. If terms of Probation include attending AA, and you don't attend you are violating the agreement. You are also a darn fool, because being drunk is the best way to get your butt into trouble again. Most of the people in the joint got there because of something they did while under the influence of some drug.

Other than your word, he has no way of knowing or proving you were ever at an AA meeting or not. It is called alcoholics annonomous. People are not allowed to say who was there or not. Alot of po's try to make you get a paper signed but legally no one at the meeting can sign it.

You better have a good reason. You are going to get your *** sent back to jail. Parole is a gift, not a right. You better be serious or you definitely are going to go back.
