Probation is an alternative to serving time in jail. The judge may decide that you can remain free after a conviction but will set conditions that you have to fulfill. Some examples of probation conditions that judges may impose:
- Not committing a crime
- Paying a fine or restitution
- Regular meetings with a probation officer
- Passing regular drug or alcohol tests
- Doing community service
- Paying restitution
- Counseling, treatment or other classes
- Not associating with certain people or avoiding certain places
- A failure to comply with any of the conditions is a probation violation.

PROBATION VIOLATION PENALTIES
Many times a probation violation is not a crime in and of itself. In that case, your penalty for having a violation of probation is simply to do the jail time that you were given for the original crime. A probation lawyer can often help by giving the judge a reasonable explanation for your actions or lack of action and getting an extension for you to complete a condition.
If the probation violation you’re charged with is a crime, you’ll be facing the punishment of that crime PLUS the sentence handed down in the original crime. Judges are less likely to be lenient in sentencing on the new crime when you have a violation of probation on the original crime. In this case, a probation lawyer who is an experienced Scottsdale defense lawyer like William L. Morris can help you avoid a long double sentence.
