If you are on probation for another offense and you are accused of assaulting your probation officer there are several things to take into consideration. Not only will you likely be arrested for assault on an officer, but you may be brought into court for violation of probation. This is an additional offense under CGS § 53a-32. Whether it is a felony or misdemeanor depends on the charges you were on probation for. If you are found guilty, the judge could terminate your probation and may sentence you to jail.
