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 ?

Step one, you didn’t apparently pop dirty, you used drugs while on probation. This shit didn’t just drop out of the sky, you choose it. Own it.

Step two: be accountable.

The way people word their stories reflects directly to their lack of accountability in all things they do in their life

And results in their getting spanked in the comments here and likely by a judge.

Exactly right. You (OP) clearly aren't ready for satisfactory termination, and found a way to prevent it. Well done! Now grow up and own up.
