The are many factors that play into a revocation hearing. The officer's testimony about your employment/school/appointments/restitution etc during the last three years is valuable testimony. Your attorney can also present witnesses to testify regarding your lifestyle in the past three years. The substance will also be a factor. Get a lawyer now, it is not impossible to get only an extension of probation. The court has the option of sentencing you to the entire original sentence.
