532.040 Probation and conditional discharge. When a person is convicted of an offense, other than a capital offense or having been designated a violent offender as defined in KRS 439.3401, the court, where authorized by KRS Chapter 533 and where not prohibited by other provisions of applicable law, may sentence such person to a period of probation or to a period of conditional discharge as provided in that chapter.

In any case where the court imposes a sentence of probation or conditional discharge, it may also impose a fine as authorized by KRS Chapter 534. Effective: July 14, 2000 History: Amended 2000 Ky.
