The supervising officer shall provide a copy of the proposed modification to the district attorney and the probationer, and shall notify the probationer of the right to file an objection and have a hearing as described in subparagraph (A) of this paragraph. The notice requirement may be satisfied by providing the probationer with a copy of a form developed in accordance with rules adopted under ORS 137.595 (2)(b) that describes the right to a hearing. If the district attorney or probationer: (A) Files an objection to the proposed modification less than five judicial days after the proposed modification was filed, the court shall schedule a hearing no later than 10 judicial days after the proposed modification was filed, unless the court finds good cause to schedule a hearing at a later time. (B) Does not file an objection to the proposed modification less than five judicial days after the proposed modification was filed, the proposed modification becomes effective five judicial days after the proposed modification was filed.
(10) A court may not order revocation of probation as a result of the probationer’s failure to pay restitution unless the court determines from the totality of the circumstances that the purposes of the probation are not being served.
(11) If the court ordered as a special condition of probation that the probationer find and maintain employment, it is not a cause for revocation of probation that the probationer failed to apply for or accept employment at any workplace where there is a labor dispute in progress.
