probation orders

Supervised release mandates

A probation order is a court-issued sentence allowing an offender to remain in the community under supervision rather than serving time in custody.

The order typically specifies conditions: regular meetings with a probation officer, maintaining employment, avoiding certain people or places, or completing community service.

Violating terms can result in the original sentence being imposed.

The judge issued a probation order requiring monthly check-ins.
