In a motion to revoke and reinstate probation and remand the matter for further proceedings, what is the difference between a violation of probation and a breach of the probation conditions?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Tregaskis, A158300 (Cal. App. 2020):

Here, the trial court likely considered defendant's violation of the weapons condition more aggravating than the alcohol violation. From the record before us, we cannot say it is more likely than not the court would have made the same decision without a weapons condition violation. (People v. Watson (1956) 46 Cal.2d 818, 836-837.) Accordingly, we reverse the court's order revoking and reinstating probation and remand the matter for further proceedings as set forth in the disposition.
