What is the name of your state? CT
My husband is on probation. He has complied with all the probation laws and done what he has been told. He has actually seeked counseling outside what he is already doing. His probation officer has forbidden us to live together. Is that legal? We were told by his public defender that we could. He is currently unemployed and his probation officer is harrassing him about finding a job and my husband is doing all he can to find one. Can he legally throw him in jail for not being able to find a job? The only thing he has to do is make sure the employment is authorized by his probation officer before he starts. He has shown proof of his job searches. When is it considered harrassment by the probation officer?? Also there was an emergency late last night and his mother (who he is currently staying with) called and needed him to stay with me. I dropped him back off at his mothers before 8am this morning. He didn't call to tell his probation officer (or ask) because it all happened so fast and it wouldn't have mattered because he wouldn't have been there to approve it anyway. His officer now wants to see him again next week with his mother. I am also going because I am his wife. Can I request his supervisor be there to clarify everything? My husband is afraid that the probation officer will retaliate and come down on him. Can he do that? Please help. We are desperate here.
