Most felons who are released from prison are first released on parole. Some states do release inmate on probation, which is similar to parole but often for a longer terms. Paroles generally last for two years, but can be as long as five or ten years, and in some cases such as for murders, life. Some released felons have served their entire sentence. These are released on discharge, and are essentially free men (if in nothing more than theory).
A conviction is a conviction. Probation IS a sentence - - a lenient sentence but a sentence nonetheless.
For a felony or domestic violence conviction of any sort? No.
Ask your probation officer.
Yes, you are still a convicted felon, even after completing probation. You must get the conviction expunged to restore your rights.
Yes. Probation means you were convicted of whatever felony offense you committed. The only difference is that you were allowed to serve your sentence at the courts direction and under the supervison of the Probation Agency instead of behind bars. Convicted is convicted.
yes you should
No. This is not true. You can become a probation officer with a felony. You just have to work alot harder and find someone that will hire you. A felon is probation officer in St. Louis and he did 15 years in prison. He went against the odds and turned his life around, He can do so can anyone else. People need to get felons hope.
It depends entirely as to whether you are on misdemeanor probation or felony probation.
Probation is a sentence, not a crime. A felony is a level of crime.
It depends on several things: Criminal history of spouse Nature of the felony Age upon conviction State where the felon is residing Circumstances of adjudication/conviction Conditions of parole/probation Etc. Not enough info to answer the question.
FIrst of all, your probation will, in all probability, be revoked for violating your probation, and, you will be remanded to jail to serve the remainder of that sentence behind bars. Additionally, you will be charged with the felony forgery and since the forgery charge is a felony you could be facing, upon conviction, an additional term of MORE than one year in prison.
Yes. Conviction of a felony, being under indictment, being a fugitive, or being convicted of domestic violence are disqualifiers.
