question about first PO visit

I figured you guys are the best source to go to. I was convicted of a felony charge, delivery of marijuana in Texas. After my final court date my probation period did begin. I had to call my PO within 5 days and did, and a meeting was setup about 3.5 weeks after the call. He said we were going to really do just a bunch of paper work. I don't know if I will be drug tested or not, but if I failed would I really be in any kind of trouble? I figured they really couldn't prove I smoked after my final court date, just wanted some feedback.

I'm surprised you haven't been tested as a condition of your bond... Assuming this is your first time meeting, he'll likely ask you and if you fail, while you won't be thrown jail, you will be tested more often.

If you pass, it looks like you've genuinely been trying to stop. It can go from twice a week to once a month. I'd try to pass.

don't get on their bad side. have some self control and give up the weed for a while - its worth it in the long run

I have a buddy in a similar situation he might have to to be clean for his entire probation nonconvicted, but a PO might be chill depending on the PO obviously. I'd say be safe and just get celan until you're sure you're out of the jam.

How much weed if you don't mind me asking?

If you agree to plea bargain then it can become illegal to fail your drug test, no matter the reason. Because the court recognizes that test positive for a grid test, is basically the same as being caught using drugs. While there might be reasons to fail a DT without actually breaking the law, people who know they will be DT(i.e. people on probation) are expected to know this and act accordingly.

Alright time to dump some stinky common sense into your dome. You've got a deal that wipes your felony record clean if you manage to complete your end. This is what I have gathered from your words. Let me let you in on a little secret. This is the biggest break you have EVER gotten in your whole life. It's also the biggest break you'll EVER receive. Don't FUCK it up just to get high. Stay sober for a while brother. In the end you'll find your wallet a tad bit fatter and your bunghole substantially smaller. Make wise decisions. Cause and effect. Risk vs reward. Use your dome.

I failed my first test in Indiana and they just made me do this stupid outpatient thing.

Those cowboy states don't fuck around with marijuana charges, shit's crazy out there. I feel bad for you. A felony..damn..Anyways, count on being drug tested while on any type of probation in any state. If you fail, it's possible that you could do some time. I know I did in Cali, but this was juvenile hall.
