Violation Of Probation Consequences

Summary

A violation of probation (VOP) in Florida is taken seriously and can result in harsh penalties, including jail time. Felony probation often requires permission for interstate travel, and breaching this can lead to a VOP. Typically, the individual would serve time in the state where the violation occurred. If found guilty, any additional time given is often served on top of the existing probation period. The length of potential jail or prison time can vary greatly based on several factors, such as the nature of the violation, prior violations, and the judges discretion. Consulting with a Florida attorney is crucial for navigating these complexities.
