Art. 46

Breach of pro­ba­tion

 

1 If the of­fend­er com­mits a felony or mis­de­mean­our dur­ing the pro­ba­tion­ary peri­od and if it there­fore must be ex­pec­ted that he will com­mit fur­ther of­fences, the court shall re­voke the sus­pen­ded sen­tence or the sus­pen­ded part of the sen­tence. If the re­voked sen­tence and the new sen­tence are of the same type, they shall form a cu­mu­lat­ive sen­tence in ana­log­ous ap­plic­a­tion of Art­icle 49.40

2 If it is not ex­pec­ted that the of­fend­er will com­mit fur­ther of­fences, the court shall not re­voke the sus­pen­ded sen­tence. It may ad­mon­ish the of­fend­er or ex­tend the pro­ba­tion­ary peri­od by up to one half of the dur­a­tion spe­cified in the judg­ment. The court may or­der pro­ba­tion as­sist­ance and im­pose con­duct or­ders for the dur­a­tion of the ex­ten­ded pro­ba­tion­ary peri­od. If the ex­ten­sion be­gins after the ex­piry of the pro­ba­tion­ary peri­od, the ex­ten­ded peri­od be­gins on the day that it is ordered.

3 The court that judges the new felony or mis­de­mean­our also de­cides on re­voc­a­tion.

4 If the of­fend­er fails to at­tend for pro­ba­tion as­sist­ance or dis­reg­ards the con­duct or­ders, Art­icle 95 para­graphs 3–5 ap­ply.

5 Re­voc­a­tion may no longer be ordered if three years have elapsed since the ex­piry of the pro­ba­tion­ary peri­od.
