Can you get your probation revoked a month after you got off probation?
If you SUCCESSFULLY completed your probation sentence and were released from probation by the judge who sentenced you, you cannot now be charged with a VOP. HOWEVER, if you only THINK that your probation expired but you haven't gone to court to hear the judges discharge, you are NOT released just because the date came and went. The key words are "SUCCESSFULLY completed" and "were DISCHARGED" by the judge.
You had a deferred sentence it expired and you got a letter saying your probation is over but it was not sucessfully completed. Does this mean you are a felon and can't carry a hand gun or vote?
You need to return to court and ask for a second chance to complete this program. If you are on some type of diversionary program where they withhold adjudication while you are going through probation with requirements to fulfill while on probation and you did not complete them, you will be back where you started. The original charge will then be reactivated and if it was a felony at the beginning, it is a felony now. You cannot have a gun. Your right to vote is only affected if you are incarcerated.
