VIOLATIONS OF PROBATION

WHAT IS A VIOLATION OF PROBATION?

Probation violation is an offense that occurs when you break the terms or conditions of your probation.

WHAT HAPPENS IN A VIOLATION OF PROBATION CASE?

When a person is sentenced to probation in a criminal case, they must follow all of the conditions of their probation, such as keeping court appointments, paying fines, completing community service work and taking drug tests. If you are arrested and charged with violating any conditions of your probation, you will face a probation revocation hearing. This includes being arrested for committing a new offense. At the hearing, the judge will review the evidence in your case to determine if your probation will remain in effect, if you probationary period will be extended, or if you will be sent to jail to complete your sentence for the original crime.
