Question: Can another county summon me because of a charge in another county?
Question Detail: I'm on probation for DWI in one county in Washington State. While traveling through another county, I was pulled over and determined to be over the legal limit. I wasn't cited for whatever reason but I later received a summons from my county's prosecutor's office charging me with a probation violation from information they received from the first county. Is this legal?

 

The simple answer to your question is YES.  In your case you had an original charge (in your County)  and were placed on probation.  Undoubtedly there were “conditions of probation” which included no new law violations.  An arrest for DUI in another County may qualify as a new law violation and as a result the original County may summons you back into court for a probation violation.  Get an attorney, you’ll need one!
