1st probation violation..what to expect?

I have been on probation for 6 months...have 6 months to go. I just got a letter stating that I have been violated for failing a urine screen for benzos (prescribed) and alcohol. THis is my first violation. IDK what to expect. I was told I will be getting a summons to go to court. I'm not concerned about the prescription..as I have proof of that. I just want to be as prepared as I can as I have children. I was stupid and drank at my job. I'm sure things vary for different states and counties..I am in Indiana

    If you are over 21 what can they say to you. The key is to go to court and focus on the good thing you are doing, working, taking care of your family, and staying out of trouble. This will get you out of there without being sent back to jail. Take your prescription to court with you, and you will be fine.
