    Yes. The system is designed to allow the probation officer a lot of leeway in how they enforce things.
    Usually the system is petty and difficult to work with, but it’s not obligated to be.
    They could say something like a biweekly phone call and a call before traveling out of state is all that’s required.

    Unlikely though, since blatant deference makes them look bad, and opens up whichever political appointee or elected official that sits above the probation system to an easily justifiable replacement.
