Does being pregnant keep a 21-year-old out of prison when she has finished nothing on probation in a year? Lisa Telsey pleaded true to violating her probation on an assault-on-a-peace-officer case. In a year of supervision she had not reported, not tested, and not completed a single class. Her lawyer told Judge Boyd she had no money for the bus. Judge Boyd had the field visit reports, the CPS history on her one-year-old, and a straight question about why a woman who could get to her visitations could not get to probation. Four more hearings from the same morning follow — a man held 135 days without an indictment, a grandmother testifying by Zoom about the grandson who hit her, a woman with no record at all, and two sisters. What happens if you violate probation in Texas? A violation starts with the probation department filing a motion — to revoke if you were sentenced to straight community supervision, or to adjudicate if your guilt was deferred. You appear in front of the same judge who put you there. You plead true or not true to each alleged violation, and if you plead true the judge can sentence you anywhere inside the original range for the offence, not just the term you were given. In Texas the judge can also continue you on supervision with tougher conditions instead — extra reporting, electronic monitoring, treatment, an extension of the term. That middle path is common, and it is entirely the judge's call.
