Minneapolis Probation Violations Lawyer,
Attorney
Probation sentences include suspended jail sentences, which allow a defendant to return to life as normal as long as he or she follows the terms of probation. If probation terms are not followed and probation is violated, the defendant may be ordered to complete his or her jail sentence and/or pay fines.
Probation can be violated in several ways, including:
- A miscommunication between you and the court
- A miscommunication between you and your probation officer
- A new offense occurs before the probationary period ends
- A treatment appointment or meeting was missed
- A court appearance was missed
If probation is violated, a person may be ordered to complete his or her jail sentence and/or pay fines. Admitting to violating probation can result in such consequences. Denying a probation violation leads to the case being heard in court where it must be proven that the probationary terms were in fact violated.
