Probation is a court-ordered period during which a person found guilty of a crime is allowed to remain in the community instead of serving time in prison, under certain conditions. These conditions may include regular check-ins with a probation officer, attending counseling, maintaining employment, or avoiding further criminal activity. If the individual follows the rules, they may avoid jail time, but failure to comply with probation conditions can result in more serious penalties, including imprisonment.
