Probation Violations
Failing to comply with court-ordered DUI terms.
Understanding Probation Violations
When convicted of a DUI in California, you are typically placed on summary (informal) probation for 3 to 5 years. Standard conditions of DUI probation include not committing any new crimes, not driving with any measurable amount of alcohol in your system, submitting to a chemical test if arrested on suspicion of DUI, and completing a DUI education program. Violating any of these terms (e.g., getting arrested for a new offense or failing to complete DUI classes) can result in a probation violation hearing, where the judge can revoke probation and impose jail time.
