Being put on probation is an alternative to being put in jail — it’s a second chance. However, probation comes with rules and restrictions. If those rules are broken, there’s a risk of having probation revoked and being ordered to jail.
Common violations are missing curfews, check-ins with your probation/parole officer, testing positive for drugs or alcohol and failing to pay fines. Remember that any violation can land you back in court.
If you’re called back into court on probation violation charges, you should understand that you’re in a tricky situation. In most cases, the court will consider violations an insult to the second chance sentence you were given. A good probation violations attorney can help you in court and a harsher sentence.
