Early Discharge

An early discharge from probation (or community supervision) is available for most types of probated cases. This law is applicable to Misdemeanors and Felonies. Even cases with a serious underlying offense can be eligible for an early discharge. The basic rule is that you can apply for an early discharge after two years or one-third of the time of your probation has passed (whichever is less). You should know that each judge has his or her specific issues when applying for an early discharge. That is, the law may allow you to ask for it, but it is not an automatic right.

You must hire an attorney to file the appropriate documents and set the case for a hearing. If the judge grants the request, your probation will be terminated and you will be released from further obligations.
