It means the person was charged and convicted in both a state and federal court. The double jeopardy rule only applies when the accused person is charged with the same crime, more than once, in the same court system. State and federal courts are not in the same court system.Whatever act was carried out, clearly violated both a state and federal statute, thus the individual can be charged for the same act in both court systems. The defendant was convicted both times and sentenced to a term of probation by both courts.
If you are on probation for a felony and commit the same crime it is a felony. If you are on probation for a misdemeanor and commit the same crime it usually will be a misdemeanor. The exception is in some States a third misdemeanor offense for the same crime can be prosecuted as a felony. For example Stealing 3rd Offense or third offense for driving while revoked. This differs from state to state.
