If you have been found guilty of a misdemeanor or felony and are placed on probation, the court limits certain types of conduct and requires certain conditions to be fulfilled in order to avoid violating your probation. A probation violation can result in arrest, revocation of probation, or imposing the original sentence. Common types of probation violations are failure to appear in court, failure to pay fines, or possession of weapons or illegal drugs which are prohibited by the terms of the probation.
