Termination of Probation
A court may also terminate your probation early and discharge you of its obligations if it is done in the interest of justice or if you exhibit good conduct and reform. Again, this would require a convincing showing that changes in your life will require adjustments in probation terms and that you’ve demonstrated good conduct or reform during the probation period.
If you are successfully discharged from probation, the court may allow you to withdraw your previous plea of guilty or no contest, or may even set aside your guilty verdict. In this way, it is possible for you to avoid incarceration altogether and expunge your criminal record. (Penal Code Section 1203.4)
A probation sentence can be a heavy burden for you to bear. It could potentially interfere with other rights or privileges to which you may be entitled. For example, a term of probation that is unreasonably restrictive could interfere with your ability to obtain gainful employment.
