Adult Probation Reinstatment/Revokation Hearing

I was on probation in San Francisco city/county.I was

later arrested, but not charged,(formal filing didn't

occur),in Oakland/Alameda Co.

I've been told;that I now have a ''No-Bail''warrant,

that my probation has been revoked,and that I can't

get on calendar for at least 4-6 weeks for the revokation/reinstatment hearing.

Can this be valid ?

Re: Adult Probation Reinstatment/Revokation Hearing

It has been my experience that the probation department sends written notice that there is an allegation that you violated probation. This notice is sent to the address which you have provided to the probation department. This notice gives a date for a court appearance and an abreviated statement of the grounds for the alleged probation violation. If you do not appear on the date in the notice the court issues a warrant for your arrest.

A no bail warrant indicates that someone wants to be sure that you appear in court, or that there are some serious charges pending somewhere.
