Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

In a typical criminal case sentence, conditional time often means a jail sentence which can be served based upon the presence of certain conditions in the future. Typically, these conditions might include any sort of violation of the rules of probation or other court supervision, such as a requirement to avoid future police trouble or a requirement that you not drink or use street drugs and submit to UA's promptly upon request. For example, under sentence rules such as these, the need to serve the conditional time could be a dirty UA or any failure to cooperate with your Probation Officer. However, you should really discuss all of this with the attorney who represented you at the sentencing rather than relying upon public internet forums for such advice. My comments in this public web forum are intended only for public educational purposes and are not legal advice specifically tailored to you and your case. Instead, you should retain a lawyer in order to meet your legal needs, since I will be taking no action on your case. Disclosure of confidential information in a public web forum is not recommended and is always subject to being used against you in court.
