Violation of Probation

New Jersey Probation Violation Defense Lawyer

If you are convicted for violation of your probation, you may be forced to complete the remainder of your sentence while incarcerated. In order to avoid such drastic consequences, it is important to have an attorney experienced in probation violation hearings who will advocate for your interests. Contact our criminal defense attorneys to discuss your case.

Were Conditions of Probation Violated?

Probation may be ordered with various conditions. If any of these conditions are violated, your probation officer may revoke your probation. However, you are entitled to a hearing to determine if conditions of your probation or parole were actually violated. Frequently, conditions of probation involve:

  • Staying out of jail (don't get arrested for illegal conduct)
  • Reporting regularly to your probation officer
  • Reporting any contact information to your probation officer
  • Paying necessary restitution or fines
  • Getting a job (and keeping it)
  • Submitting to regular or unannounced drug testing
  • Submitting to drug counseling or treatment

Revocation of PTI (Pre-Trial Intervention)

If you are convicted for probation violation while on pre-trial intervention, you may be faced with the consequences you originally bypassed through pre-trial intervention. In addition, when pre-trial intervention status is revoked, the original conviction will be placed on your criminal record - as well as the conviction for violation of probation.
