Probation Violations Attorney In Raleigh, NC
Chris frequently handles probation violation cases.
When a judge suspends a sentence so that the defendant does not have to serve jail or prison time, the judge places the defendant on probation. This suspended sentence and period of probation allow the defendant to avoid an active sentence.
There are two types of probation in North Carolina:
- Unsupervised
- Supervised
Probation violations rarely ever occur in cases where the defendant is on unsupervised probation.
In contrast, probation violations occur frequently when the defendant is placed on supervised probation. Supervised probation involves the defendant having a probation officer, being subject to warrantless searches and drug tests, having restrictions on his or her travel, paying supervision fees, and not possessing a firearm, among other limitations on the defendant’s liberty.
