What is Probation?

If you were convicted of a crime, you may have been sentenced to probation. Probation is when an offender is released from jail and given the chance to live at home under the supervision of a probation officer. Anyone who is on probation is expected to abide by very strict rules, which vary from sentence to sentence.

• Meet with your probation officer at set times
• Appear at scheduled court dates
• Pay fines or restitution
• Undergo drug or alcohol testing
• Obey all laws and avoid further criminal charges
