Once you have violated probation the courts have several options that they can utilize as consequences for you including:
- Extension of the length of probation time
- Stricter probation terms
- Jail time
- Monetary fines
Litigators for defendants that have been convicted prefer to have a sentence of probation for their client as it allows their client to avoid jail time. However, in order to not be in violation of probation each and every term must be met. Some of these terms may include:
- Drug and alcohol testing
- Reporting regularly to probation officer
- Community service
- Wearing monitoring device
No matter what your terms of probation are, if you have violated any of the terms you will need a highly qualified and knowledgeable attorney to defend you in court. Having the right representation can have a significant impact on the outcome on your VOP hearing.
