Lockhart, TX DWI Law Firms & Lawyers

You should hire an attorney to handle the out-of-state ticket immediately. It's possible that your probation officer won't find out about the out-of-state ticket if you get it reduced to a lesser offense. But if you just plead guilty to the out-of-state ticket, the conviction of "Drunk in Public" will be reported on your criminal record and your probation officer will see it. It's up to you, but in general it's always best to tell your probation officer about violations before they find out about it on their own.
