  • No. the original charge stands on its own merits. say you were given three years to serve for burglary. this was your first offense and the court gave you a three year probation. if you violate the provisions of your probation, you will serve the original three years, plus an additional one year for the violation charge. They are two separate incidents and two separate laws cover each. This may vary from state to state, but this is a general answer to your question. I don't understand being put on probation, before a conviction. this means you are already convicted, before a plea or a trial.
  • You will probably have to serve the entire sentence that was deferred, plus an additional sentence for the violation.
