What happens when you violate probation when not found guilty of that crime and will probably be dismissed?

Answer 1

Im confused, if you were found not guilty of a crime, then what were you given probation for and why wasnt it dismissed at the time when you were found not guilty. Usually, that is what happens, unless you got probation for another part of the crime that wasnt part of this judgement. When you violate probation, you go back before the judge and between them and the probation officer they decide if you should go to jail or get more or different type of probation and more FINES. Is it really worth the hassle?

Answer 2

What the judge did was give you a suspended sentence and probation for a certain amount of time, and if you completed your probation without incident the charges would be dropped possibly taken off your record. You failed to live up to your share of the bargain thus violated your promise. Now it depends what your lawyer does determines what you get in prison. Take it from me I went through this in 2006. by violating your probation you commited a felony a felony is punishable by either your whole probation must be served or the remaining time of your probation will be served At any rate you are going to prison not jail because you are a convicted felon thus not eligible for jail which is for people waiting to be convicted or got jail time for a misdemeanor. You might be offered half you r probation sentence in prison and an additional probation period. Ichose to do my whole bid even though it meant an extra 6 months in prison against another years probation. because I showed I couldn't do probation. Doing your whole bid means that your eos date(end of sentence) you walk out owing nobody nothing
