A Probation Order Under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3607 is a court order that requires a convicted offender to be supervised by a probation officer for a specific period of time as an alternative to imprisonment. This type of probation order is often referred to as a "term of supervised release" and is imposed as part of a sentence for a federal offense. Probation orders under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3607 are generally divided into two categories: (1) supervised release and (2) unsupervised release. Supervised release requires the offender to report to a probation officer on a regular basis and abide by any other conditions imposed by the court, such as community service, payment of fines, or participation in a rehabilitation program. Unsupervised release requires the offender to comply with the conditions of the probation order but does not require regular reporting to a probation officer. Under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3607, probation orders can be revoked or modified by a court if the offender violates any of the conditions of the order or commits a new crime. In addition, the court may impose additional penalties if the offender fails to comply with the conditions of the order.
