I have never heard of the term "shock" probation. But other than that, you have accurately described all probation sentences, except for the fact that nothing is "suspended." You are simply out in the general population (at the pleasure of the court) and as long as you obey a few simple rules you will be okay. HOWEVER - never forget that behind that probation lies the sentence itself, for which you could be remanded to jail to serve if, at any time, you violate your probation restrictuons and obligations.
There is no definite answer to this question. The decision as to whether to sentence an offender to probation or not is entirely up to the discretion of the judge.
The judge reviews the probationer's supervison history and violations and determines if the offender's probation should be revoked or modified. Revoked usually means a period of incarceration.
The offender will be returned to close custody. In most states, this means return to prison where the offender will be reviewed by a parole violation board or committee, where it will be determined whether the offender will serve more of his sentence or be returned to supervised release.
It stands for Pre Sentence Report, the report completed on the offender by the serivce prior to sentencing.
This question makes no sense. Parole begins once released from prison and there is time remaining on the sentence. Probation starts when the Court sentences you to probation.
This is a form of conditional released called probation.
If the question is about court sentences in criminal law, probation is a period of non-incarceration that either follows or takes the place of a jail or prison sentence. Probation, like parole, comes with stipulations and restrictions as a result of a guilty verdict or its equivalent.
Very doubtful. Probation is a lenient sentence usually given to those people who have little or no past criminal record, in an effort to rehaibilitate and educate them. If you are a repeat offender, obviously you have not learned your lesson.
Unless that happens to be the date of their parole or the end of their sentence, no.
It sounds like you are well on your way to being a repeat offender. You will have your probation sentence terminated and, in all likliehood, be sent inside to finish the term of THAT sentence behind bars, THEN, you will be tried for the new offense and have THAT sentence added onto the top of the first one.
the y/o law is nto be a max of 6 yrs. or a standard split sentence of 4yrs prison /2 yrs probation.
Yes, it is. In China, the offender could actually receive the death sentence.
