I am on probation for OWI...I was mandated to attend AA and do a rehab program. I am not an alcoholic. The rehab guy diagnosed me as not an alcoholic and just making poor decisions. In the offical report he told me P.O. I was "in denial". Because I am allegedly "in denial" can my P.O. make me do counseling or do another rehab, even if I did not violate?

Depends on how the "terms" were stated. Most "terms of probation" have an "open clause" that allows the PO some latitude, however, when that latitude is exercised the PO still has to write a report supporting that decision. If you have a report from the rehab fella in writing, then hopefully you have a copy of it. If not GET ONE. If he reported one thing and is telling your PO something else then report that to your PO's supervisor. With no more info you gave that is the best answer I can give.

Sorry. Never been on probation. Happy to say that I'm somewhat uninformed on the subject.

Yup, sure can. There's really nothing you can do about it either.
