Over 25 Probation Violation Case Result Summaries
Most commonly, the client is arrested for a new violation which involves its own separate exposure, as well as exposure as a probation violation.
Sometimes, the probation violation is out of a separate courthouse, so coordinating the two cases to avoid duplicative or redundant punishment is vital. Often, when the two cases are out of different courthouses, we will seek to transfer the new case to the courthouse handling the probation violation, or visa versa to the courthouse handling the new violation. Our experience with the two courthouses and the two prosecutors helps us make this decision.

Facts About Probation Violations | |
If a probationer on felony or misdemeanor probation has failed to complete a condition of probation, he faces substantial jail or prison time. It is therefore critical that you have an experienced criminal defense attorney at your side. Other times, a probation violation arises from the client’s failure to obey all laws because the client is arrested on a new offense. In such circumstances, our office must defend the client on two fronts, both as to violating probation and on the new offense. If the new offense ends in dismissal, the probation violation is resolved as well. Therefore, it is extremely important to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney on the new offense to ensure your best chances of having the probation violation resolved by dismissal. |
Greg Hill & Associates Can Help You By: | |
1 | Properly investigating the facts surrounding your case by hiring a professional investigator if necessary. |
2 | Researching potential legal defenses and gathering evidence to show the violation is excusable. This evaluation includes a discussion of the immigration consequences of a conviction for the new charges alleged |
3 | Aggressively negotiating with the probation department to ensure they are in agreement with us that the new charges are not a probation violation. Alternatively, this means negotiating with the probation department to explain the circumstances of allegedly violating the terms of probation. |
4 | Obtaining the correct documentation and verification of the reasons for the violation. This can include bringing witnesses to court to testify on behalf of the probationer. The documentation will be attached to a formal motion asking the court not to violate the probation, or when a violation is certain, to prepare a Sentencing Brief to minimize the punishment. |
5 | Providing alternative sentencing and conditions of probation to the court to avoid jail or prison time. |
