Understanding Probation Revocation in Arkansas

Probation is often granted as an alternative to incarceration, allowing individuals to serve their sentence under supervision while living in the community. However, if you’re accused of violating the terms of your probation—whether due to new criminal charges, failing a drug test, missing appointments with your probation officer, or not meeting other conditions—the state may file a motion to revoke your probation.

In Arkansas, probation revocation hearings are serious matters. Unlike a criminal trial, the burden of proof is lower, meaning the state only needs to show that it is "more likely than not" that you violated your probation terms. Without proper legal representation, this can lead to significant penalties, including:

  • Revocation of probation

  • Imposition of the original jail or prison sentence

  • Additional fines or probation conditions
