What Happens If You Violate Probation?

When a prosecuting attorney or probation officer has good reason to believe you violated your probation conditions, they will send a report to the court that issued your previous judgement. If the argument against you is convincing, then the court will approve a notice to revoke probation, effectively ending your probation as it currently stands. You will not automatically go to jail or prison, though. Our defense lawyers can help navigate and negotiate the situation to make certain your rights are respected.

Penalties for probation violations can include:

  • Being sent to jail to complete the original diverted sentencing
  • Adding more time to the probation period
  • Imposing more fines
  • Mandating behavioral counseling sessions
  • Creating new stipulations for the probation requirements
