Summary

The bill changes Massachusetts statutes governing probation violations. It removes the final sentence of a provision in Chapter 127 and revises Chapter 279 to let judges decide whether to enforce the full suspended term or a reduced portion when a suspended sentence is revoked, and to adjust probation conditions accordingly. This gives courts more discretion in handling revocations.
