Can You Shorten Felony Probation
Felony Probation Term Shortened
Hi. I have a felony DUI charge on my record and have been sentenced to 5 years felony probation. I have served a little over a year and have completed a 1-yr substance abuse program. I would like to know if it is possible, once the fines have been paid, to petition the court for a reduction in my sentence.
Re: Can You Shorten Felony Probation
Yes, you can petition the court for an early termination of probation per PC 1203.3. No, they do not have to grant it. You may want to consult an attorney to get some idea of the odds of success in your area.
