Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

probatiion

My nephew is a drug addict with a felony in Memphis, TN. Also, had a DUI in TN. Went to court yesterday in Memphis and was given 3 years probation in Orlando where he lives with my sister. He is an adult. He does not have a parole officer assigned yet. My sister can't wait 2 weeks until he gets one because he is already doing drugs and won't go to NA. He is taking prescription drugs now and she has proof of 17 ER visits at different hospitals for the same complaint and they give him VIcodin. She wants to kick him out but is afraid of retaliation and destruction of her property. She can't afford to fix anything because she already spent 20,000 on him in the last 6 months.She is also afraid of him now.SHe wants him out. What should she do? SHe can't wait that long to be assigned a parole officer.She is about to have a heart attack and is having chest pain. THank You very much.

Re: probatiion

i dont think the probation officer is going to fix anything. if he is an adult she can ask him to leave and if he wont go, she can call the police. if he reprises, she can call the police and he will violate probation.
