Probation Violations

If you are on probation and failed to complete a condition of probation, or committed a new offense, then you are in violation of your probation. There is likely a warrant out for your arrest. Probation violation warrants are issued by the court for a variety of reasons, including:

1. Failure to appear at a court appearance
2. Failure to enroll in a required program or class
3. Failure to complete a required program or class
4. Failure to report as required
5. Failure of a drug test
6. Arrest during the probationary period (regardless of criminal charges)
7. Commission of a new crime
