It is important to realize that every state maintains its own specific regulations which you have to meet before you can receive an early termination of probation. The process generally begins with you contacting your Parole Officer or any criminal defense attorney so that you can ask about the state-specific procedures. With a lot of states, the typical process involves filing a motion with the appropriate court where you were originally convicted.
Here you make your request for early termination of probation. Some jurisdictions require you to physically write a letter clearly outlining the reasons you believe that you deserve early termination of probation. It is necessary to include your parole officer’s official recommendation letter. Assuming that you have this, it will generally convince the judge to approve the request.
All cases are different. The courts typically contemplate a range of factors in the process of decision making. The court will begin by checking to learn if you paid all fines and made good on all restitution. They will also be interested in whether or not you finished all prescribed counseling sessions like alcohol and drug treatment or anger management.
The courts are pretty thorough. They will review all other relevant terms which were stipulated in your case. If any probation terms at all have been violated, the court will be aware and will consider it as part of their review and evaluation.
It is difficult to overstate the many benefits of receiving early termination of probation in your particular case. You would no longer be worried about the day to day struggle and the heavy burden of realizing that you are only one small mistake away from going back to prison for violating your probation. This is why you want to follow the five major steps to receiving an early termination of your particular probation.
The first step is to consult with a capable defense attorney. They can assist you in navigating all legal processes. They will file the request to terminate the probation early with the courts. The primary aim of the attorney will be to come up with a convincing argument on why you should be let out of your probation early. The attorney will present this case in front of the judge at the hearing. An experienced lawyer will understand the time and means of filing all required legal paperwork in order to schedule the hearing on the court calendar. They will be well aware of all necessary steps so that none are accidentally missed along the way.
The second step is to maintain a clean record. The judge will have full discretion over your case and request. Assuming that you have kept out of trouble and abided by all terms in the probation, including paying all restitution and fines and going to all required counseling sessions, then your chances of a positive outcome will dramatically improve.
The third step involves serving out minimally half of the probation term that was given to you in your sentencing. You could apply for this earlier, since the law does not specify a minimum amount of probation time to serve. Yet the judges usually will not offer an early termination until at least fifty percent of the probation has been fully served.
The critical fourth step is to actually petition the court to review the case. They must be asked to grant an early termination to the probation in question. Your attorney is expected to make the full formal request. He will also have to offer a reasonable explanation for why you have earned this privilege. It helps if you have any type of injustice you will be disadvantaged by if such an early motion for release is not granted. This could be a negative impact on your career prospects at your job.
You should know that the district attorney will also have to be made aware of your petition since the office has to receive the chance to oppose said petition and request. Capable defense attorneys with appropriate experience in this work will be well aware of the proper methods for filing such a motion and the best way to persuasively argue on your behalf in front of the judge.
The final step involves the hearing itself. The court appoints a particular date to hear your motion at which point and time your lawyer will represent and make your appeal. It does depend in part on the crime for which you were convicted. The prosecution has the right to attempt to block your motion for early termination in front of the judge.
After the two sides of the argument have aired their motions and complaints to the judge, he or she will issue the decision on the motion. Assuming that your attorney convinces the judge, your probation can be ordered terminated effective immediately.
He could similarly deny the motion. There is also a third option. They could choose to state that you need more time in probation. If you stay clean with your record in this remaining time, then he will likely allow you to file for an early motion to terminate probation once again. This time around, he or she will accept the appeal.

Cantor Law Group came as a recommendation from a family friend, and I am so grateful that this led me to speak with Nicholas Boca. Nik represented me in a complicated divorce which detailed a substantial claim of waste that spanned my 25-year marriage. He was very straightforward and honest and worked purposefully on my behalf at all times. He was empathetic to my situation and found ways to navigate difficult challenges unique to my case. Perhaps most importantly, he understood the importance of bringing closure to my situation and did his best to avoid unnecessary legal expenses. His methods to find resolution required wisdom and experienced practice of law. My heartfelt gratitude also extends to Robyn and Amanda. This was a team effort. Amanda’s knowledge of law, Robyn’s organizational skills and instinctive nature were invaluable. My “team” at Cantor Law Group cared. My case mattered, I mattered, my family mattered. From the front desk to the billing department, everyone handled my inquiries and needs without delay. Each person I interacted with seemed to know me personally and I felt reassured they were all working together to achieve the best possible outcome. Cantor Law Group has an excellent reputation amongst the experts. It was extremely reassuring knowing that the work ethic and professionalism of Cantor Law Group is respected by both the experts and the court. I would HIGHLY recommend Cantor Law group.
