Article 410 - Sentences of Probation, Conditional Discharge and Parole Supervision
410.30 - Declaration of Delinquency.


If at any time during the period of a sentence of probation or of
conditional discharge the court has reasonable cause to believe that the
defendant has violated a condition of the sentence, it may declare the
defendant delinquent and file a written declaration of delinquency. When
the court receives a request for a declaration of delinquency by a
probation officer, it shall make a decision on such request within
seventy-two hours of its receipt of the request. Upon filing a written
declaration of delinquency, the court must promptly take reasonable and
appropriate action to cause the defendant to appear before it for the
purpose of enabling the court to make a final determination with respect
to the alleged delinquency in accordance with section 410.70 of this
article.
