What are general conditions of probation?
A2. General Conditions of Probation are statutory. I’ve listed these on our website HERE. These conditions did not have to be verbalized to you by the judge when he or she sentenced you. However, your probation office will go over these with you typically at your first meeting with him or her. Because probation officers have large caseloads they may provide you with a list of these conditions – YOU MUST READ AND ABIDE BY THESE IF YOU RECEIVE A LIST. It is your responsibility to avoid violating your probation. There is one general condition of probation that is not listed in the statutes. This is the general condition that you do not commit any violation of law. This seems obvious but, just so you know, if your are arrested or accused of committing a new law offense your probation will be violated 99.9% of the time.
