hi
try for the abatement again - have your agent contact MT again and make the request; however, i would suggest that a copy also be submitted to the judge in the matter. the request package should include a letter from you and documentation of your family and community life with character references letters. ask your agent to present this package to MT and also send a copy of the request to the judge. if for some reason you agent is not inclined to copy the judge on the request, then you can send the judge the package and abatement request that was submitted this time to MT. i dont know if a judge will act unilaterally without the Petition coming from MT probation, but it wont hurt.
good luck
