Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

Paying of fines from social security $

I am disabled and currently receiving Social Security disability fixed income, yet I am required to pay fines to my state probation office in Walton County which I can not afford. Is there any law or precedent that prtects me from being revoked if I fail to pay my court ordered fines resulting from a felony conviction?

Re: Paying of fines from social security $

I'm not sure what you mean by "revoked," but ordinarily, you must pay court-ordered fines or else face contempt charges.
