Do I have a right to notice of the probation revocation hearing?

Yes, unless you waive the notice requirement in writing.[840]

You must be given notice before your first court appearance in the probation revocation proceedings, unless you agreed in writing to a modification (a change) or termination (an end) of a specific term of your supervision.[841]

If you agreed in writing to a modification or termination of a specific term of your supervision, you also do not have to make an in-person appearance in court for the hearing.[842] We suggest that you speak with an attorney or public defender prior to waiving your right to a revocation hearing.
