Under Virginia law, sheriff's departments must require inmates to serve 50 percent of their sentences unless there is a mandatory minimum sentence. In most Northern Virginia jails, people will only serve 50 percent of their sentence conditional on their good behavior.
Virginia Code § 16.1-253.2 provides that a violation of any provision of an emergency protective order, preliminary protective order, or permanent protective order is punishable as a Class 1 misdemeanor: For the first offense.
The Arrest Process for a Reckless Driving Case You can be pulled over by the officer and released on a summons. A release on a summons means that you sign a promise to appear in court; that is what your ticket is for reckless driving.
In a criminal court context, the note "Released on Summons" generally means that the person was not formally arrested and booked into jail but instead received a summons to appear in court at a later date.
