DUI Probation Violation

If you violate any one of the terms of your probation during your probation period, the court can revoke your probation and sentence you to county jail. The court can sentence you to county jail for the longest period for which you may have been sentenced for the underlying crime. For example, if you violate your probation for your first DUI conviction, you may be sentenced to up to six months in county jail. If you have violated the terms of your DUI probation, it is important for you to speak with a Wallin & Klarich attorney to help you defend your case.
