Federal Department Of Probation

Additional Info

via Wikipedia
Probation is a sentence which may be imposed by a court in lieu of incarceration. A criminal who is "on probation" has been convicted of a crime but has served only part of the sentence in jail, or has not served time at all. In most jurisdictions, probation is a sentencing option for misdemeanors and many felonies, but not for higher-order felonies, such as capital crimes, forcible rape, and many others.
