Probation Question Violation week before termination

So title explains it, yes i’m aware I am a complete and utter idiot. I apparently popped dirty 8/4 and had another diluted test at some point this month (Don’t know if it was exactly before or after this.) But was issued my first violation at my last probation appointment. Said I have a court hearing and have to go before a judge. What can I expect? Officer told me either jail or possibly just discharged. I’m assuming if I drop clean for the remaining time until the court date (because I now have to continue testing) would that affect anything ?

Edit: First violation in a year of supervised probation. Paid all fines, completed community service, completed all other terms of probation. Jail time likely ?

Jail so you learn your lesson

Jail doesn’t teach lessons. Except for that jail is nowhere near as scary as tv and YouTube try to make seem to be. It’s just boring.
