probation. The court may designate the clerk of district court, the sheriff, the state's attorney, or any other person to act as sponsor for the defendant. It shall be the duty of the sponsor to assist the probationer in making his monthly reports to the board of pardons, to report any violations, and to counsel and direct said probationer whenever possible.
§ 3. Whenever the board of pardons shall have reason to believe such defendant is violating the terms of his probation, such probationer shall be brought before the court wherein the probation was granted. For this purpose any peace officer or state parole officer may re-arrest the probationer without warrant or other process. The court may thereupon, in its discretion, without notice revoke and terminate such probation, pronounce judgment, and deliver defendant to the sheriff to be transferred to the penitentiary or other state institution in accordance with the sentence imposed.
§ 4. If, after suspension of imposition of sentence, such probationer leaves the jurisdiction prior to the expiration of his probationary period without permission of the court or the board of pardons, he shall be deemed an escapee and a fugitive from justice.
§ 5. The court shall have authority at any time during the course of probation to (1) revoke, modify or change its order of suspension; (2) it may at any time, when the ends of justice will be served thereby, and when the reformation of the probationer shall warrant, terminate the period of probation and discharge the person so held.
§ 6. Every defendant who has fulfilled the conditions of his probation for the entire period thereof, or who shall have been discharged from probation prior to the termination of the period thereof, may at any time be permitted in the discretion of the court to withdraw his plea of guilty, the court may in its discretion set aside the verdict of guilty; and in either case, the court may dismiss the information or indictment against such defendant, who shall then be released from all penalties and disabilities resulting from the offense or crime of which he has been convicted. The clerk of the district court shall file all papers, including the findings and final orders in proceedings had hereunder and shall note the date of filing on the papers. The records and papers shall be subject to examination by said clerk, the judges of the court, the juvenile commissioner, and the state's attorney. Others may examine such records and papers only upon the written order of one of the district judges.
