What is A Pre-Sentence Report Options Report?
This is a report prepared by the Probation and Parole Service at the request of the court. It is a pre-sentence report but does not contain detailed background information. Instead, it focuses on the availability and suitability of the client for community service or periodic detention. It may make a recommendation regarding whether or not supervision would be appropriate – especially if the accused may be at risk of re-offending due to drug and alcohol or anger management problems.
