How much does it cost to be on probation every month? It's my understanding that a person has to pay a probation officer plus fines, etc. Does anyone know?

Never hears of that.All I ever paid was resitution and 35 hours of community service. But I've been off paper since 1997.

In Mississippi you have to pay $50.00 per month in probation supervision fees and you have to pay a set amount on fees and restitution and court cost - which is normally around $100.00

my fines are 450$ total..
thats 300$ court cost,
50$ to a crime victims right fund or something,
& 100$ to some other fund

plus 10$ a month for 2 years
& 11$ a day for 90 days

sucks.. id rather be in jail than give them that much money honestly

It is bothers you so much, why not do the time?
The $450 court fines and $300 court cost .50 cents , is that total or monthly?

christineC · #9 10-08-2006, 02:09 PM

its 450$ total
plus that other monthly stuff which is prly different in cali

are you in probation or something? they shouldve told you how much you should be paying if you are...

in michigan, as soon as you pay ALL of your fees/fines off, theyll let you off probation early.. so all they care about it gettin paid not helping the "offenders"

Ask them to violate you. They will assess X days for X amount of dollars.
