The careful preparation of the case is vital in a request to terminate probation. Negotiations with the prosecutor in the case to get them to agree that the probation termination is acceptable will smooth the process. The court will base the decision partially on the viewpoint of the prosecutor who got the conviction in the case. The conduct of the individual since the time of the conviction will influence the court as well, and whether the individual has a criminal record beyond the conviction at hand.
