Motion to Revoke Probation

Motions to revoke probation or MTRs, are written instructions, from your probation officer to a court of law, to send you back to jail or prison, and a very real threat to your liberty. Oftentimes, this sentence has a portion of itself that hangs over your head until probation is finished. If you are out of jail/prison and pick up another charge while you are on probation, then your probation officer may file an MTR.
