Last summer I was caught with less than a gram of cannabis. I was put in a pre-trial diversion program, but then removed for failing a drug test (even though I abstained for over a month, slow metabolism and bad luck I assume). I expect sometime in the near future I will receive a court date. My old diversion officer recommended that I stay in my community service and treatment program so I can tell my probation officer that I am already doing these things.

From researching the internet, it seems that the penalty is a 100$ fine. Can I chose to pay the fine instead of being on probation? If so, is there any point in continuing with what I am currently enrolled in?

I had planned to be off diversion before this summer break as I have plans of going to Europe and other things and probation might get in the way of these.
