Will I have to take a UA at SATOP Level II (WIP)?
I had some drinks on Tuesday and I’m scheduled to take the WIP this weekend. Yes, I know, I shouldn’t have drank, I’ve been sober since Easter, but not a lot of my friends know, and we had a dinner party. (I’m not supposed to drink for first 6 months of probation). What happens if they test on Friday evening and I’m dirty?

Justin’s Answer
You may be tested. If you test positive, you may violate your probation and go to jail. You need to speak with an attorney about your case.

I got an driving while suspended and have been reinstated before court but at the time of court the prosecution was not present even though it was only my arraignment but I did ask what the city would recommend and the prosecution wasn’t present so the judge stated my license would be suspended for a year

Justin’s Answer
The judge was probably just informing you that pleading guilty to driving while suspended comes with 12 points and an instant suspension.
