Some people get the punishment of probation and this is a part of a sentence when someone commits a crime. It is the next alternative to being imprisoned. Probation is much better than going into prison when the accused maintains the decorum. If the rules of probation are violated, the penalty would be very harsh.

 

A violation of law happens when any rule during probation is broken. Many factors determine the outcomes of the violation. Those factors are prior warnings, violation severity, prior violations and nature of violations. The consequences normally include fines, jail time and extended probation.

 

A case of a person is managed by a probation officer when he convicted. The officer keeps a note of various activities of the person accused. The officer check for any violation of rules and keeps a note of it as well. The accused person must report to the offer at set days and times and if this not followed correctly, it is considered a violation of the rule.

​

The violations differ depending on the crime happened. A person charged with domestic violence is not permitted to meet his family during the probation period and if breaks the rule it is considered a violation. A person charged for DUI must keep away from alcohol if he fails he would have broken the law resulting in a violation.
