Re: Probation revocation

Hello --

Technically, the level of proof for the revocation would be the same as for the conviction of the second offense. The reality is that a motion to revoke may be filed, but will not be ruled upon until the second offense is dealt with (i.e. dismissed, gone to jury trial, etc.) Hope this helps.

Should you have further questions or need to consult with me, please feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected] or call 254.756.5004 Thanks and all the best.
