Federal Probation

Federal probation is a court-ordered period of supervision for individuals convicted of federal offenses, allowing them to serve their sentence in the community under specific conditions rather than in prison. Probation typically includes regular check-ins with a probation officer, restrictions on travel and activities, and compliance with laws. It is intended to help offenders reintegrate into society while ensuring public safety. Violating probation terms can lead to additional penalties, including imprisonment. Overall, federal probation aims to balance punishment with the opportunity for rehabilitation.
