Re: juvinile probation
If you were arrested on the new case before you were adjudicated delinquent on the old case, then there is no violation. If you picked up the new case after being adjudicated, then you are in potential direct violation. (Note that a mere arrest is not in itself a technical violation.)
Retain an attorney on your small amount case at your earliest opportunity. Good luck.
