Re: Prosecutors response?

It's not standard, but I've seen it done. Probationary matters are usually handled by the Judges and thier probation officers. Ordinarily, Prosecutors don't get involved after the date of sentence, unless its an appeal or motion for resentencing, etc... Also, it depends on which Court and which Judge.
