Is It Likely That He Judge Will Take Me Off Probation Henry Country Georgia?

Question by Bstrick89: Is it likely that he judge will take me off probation Henry Country Georgia?
I received dui drugs less safe and possession of marijuana charges and was court ordered by the state to 2 years of probation, 24 hours jail time, 80 hours community service, $ 2000 in fines, and to complete a drug and alcohol evaluation. I had the option of non reporting probation after 1 year granted I had completed everything on the order. After completing the evaluation I was assigned 17 weeks of class for drug and alcohol treatment and but the rules of attendance stipulate that if I miss more than 2 class I simply have to attend an additional class along with making up the initial class. I cannot afford the classes and have had to miss way too many. I completed the original 17 along with an additional 8 but am still a long way from completing the program due to attendance. I haven’t violated probation, rules of the program, or failed any drug and alcohol screens. Those are the details so my question basically is, if i set up a time to go before the judge is it likely that he will find my financial situation grounds for variation in that the attendance I have will suffice and place me on non reporting probation or even allow me to leave the program. I haven’t done any drugs for over 1 and a half years and hope to enlist after probation is over. I would really appreciate some in-site from any persons with a substantial legal opinion specifically on criminal law, court, or probation in Georgia. Thanks for your time
also, I have no prior probation violations.
