Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

i was convicted of a criminal damage to property and commercial burglary. i was sentenced to five years jail with five years probation afterwards. i was released after a year & 1/2 and have been on parole for the last 3 years. i am now going to terminate the parole sentence in a couple of months and start the probation part. their are special conditions of the probation--go to an impatient treatment center for drug abuse and intense probation for six months--which translates to basically house arrest. these stipulations were put in place thinking that i would serve the whole five years and start out under these circumstances, however now I am a full time engineering student (with a 4.0) and work full time! how can i get back in front of the judge to amend, change, alter the sentence in GA.

You hire an attorney, and the attorney files a motion, requesting that the terms of the probation be modified. See my website: www.lawrencelewispc.com
