About Probation Violations
Probation may be granted after a defendant has served part of his or her sentence, allowing a release from imprisonment based upon certain terms. For a specified amount of time, usually the length of the remaining term of imprisonment, the defendant must abide by specific rules, such as:
- Regular reporting to a probation officer
- Drug testing
- Drug or alcohol treatment/rehabilitation
- Payment of restitution or court-ordered fines
- No association with known criminals
- No further criminal activity or arrests
Different terms may be imposed, depending on the particular case and for what offense the defendant was originally convicted.
