Early Term Of Supervision

RE: Motion to Modify or Terminate Probation
Please find attached a sample format to be used in a Motion to Modify or Terminate Probation or Community Control. This matter is related to your criminal case, but we cannot represent you unless the Judge appoints us to do so.
You will need to complete the pleadings with all of the appropriate information in the spaces provided, including: your name, case number, and the trial division in which your case was heard. Where indicated, circle the parts that apply to you and fill in the blank spaces.
The Order should be completed with your name, case number, and division, but the signature line for the judge must remain blank.
The judge will sign the Order in court. In most divisions, you must contact the judicial assistant of the judge whose division handled your case and request a date for the motion to be heard. Once the judicial assistant provides a date for the hearing, complete the Notice of Hearing.
You must file the Motion, Order, and Notice of Hearing with the Clerk of the Circuit Court. You must then send a copy of the Motion and the Notice of Hearing to the Office of the State Attorney and your probation or community control officer.
It is important that you bring with you to court all verification of any special conditions of probation/community control that you have completed. Be sure to keep copies of all of the documents.
