If you live in Sarasota and are facing criminal charges, it is prudent to consult a seasoned Sarasota criminal defense attorney to assist you in formulating a defense.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Terms of the Defendant\u2019s Probation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The defendant was convicted of welfare fraud and sentenced to probation. There were several conditions to her probation, including the conditions that she \u201cwill pay\u201d court costs and that she \u201cmay perform\u201d community service in lieu of paying court costs. The defendant did not pay the court costs or perform community service. Consequently, the State moved for a revocation of probation. During the revocation proceeding, the court did not assess whether the defendant had the ability to pay the court costs, but found that the defendant had the ability to perform community service. Thus, the court revoked her probation. The defendant then appealed the revocation of her probation.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sarasotadefenseattorney.com\/blog\/florida-court-reverses-revocation-of-probation-for-failure-to-pay-court-costs\/#more-396\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In some cases, rather than sentence a person convicted of a crime to imprisonment, a court will impose probation.
