What happens to somebody on probation if they get arrested?

They get the new charge, plus whatever the DA sets up for the probation violation. Nothing is set in stone. The defense attorney and the DA hash it out or have a hearing.

Could be a couple months, could be up to some years.

you first get a d.a. that files a motion to revoke your probation and they issue a warrent then if you can bond out you spend your time before your hearing having as much fun possible and you also spend it with those you care most for because at your hearing they will arrest you and take you to the county awaiting your transfer to prison which could be any amount of time then you have to spend the rest of the probation time in prison not fun im sorry because it usually is not necisary i mean they really put harmless people in prison for meaningless reasons that only teachs basically decent people how to be real criminals just from the art of surviving prison enviornments so our justice system is a joke and we are all so regulated by little laws especially if you are on probation they own you and they can revoke you for such petty acts you think you get a deal with probation but it is just a set up to eventually send you off then when you get out they will continue to harrass you because you are a felon and an ex con so they will watch you and when it all comes down to it you will never be able to relax and enjoy a life of freedom or privacy and peace of mind always subject to attack by the law enforcement it is a terrible burden to live with

Don't forget you have no rights even if your not arrested. But the jail house don't like PO to place or keep people on probation on weekends. If it is sit a day and go back on monday.

all that you can know for sure is that the deal that got you put on probation in the first place (instead of jail i assume) will be reviewed.

if you got probation with the promise of a continuance without a finding (meaning no criminal record after your probation is over) that will be reviewed.

don't listen for one second to those out here who want to scare you with certainty of jailtime, etc.

talk to you lawyer and you PO and figure it out.

but above all else - be careful while you are on probation, and after for that matter...

Harsher punishment! They begin to think that you're not making an effort to change yourself or your judgement and that they made a mistake trying to give you a second chance. You don't want to go infront of a judge because you got arrested on probation, trust me.
