Noble County Probation Department - Adult

County Circuit Court,
County Superior Court Division 1, and
County Superior Court Division 2.
Our office is responsible for supervising those ordered to Probation
Supervision along with other judicial directives.

Additional services available include:
As of January 1, 2008, the Noble County Probation Department was supervising
603 probationers who had committed a felony offense and 616 probationers who
had committed a misdemeanor offense. The Court Orders specific terms (Adult
Probation Terms Link) of probation supervision for each individual.
Community Supervision is an important part of Noble County’s approach to
supervising probationers. We contact probationers at their homes, places of
employment, and other places within the community in an effort to ensure they
are following through with the Court’s order.
Noble County Probation Department - Juvenile
Our office also handles juvenile offenders. As of January 1, 2008, the Noble
County Probation Department was supervising 52 juveniles through
probation terms and informal adjustments. In 2007, the Noble County
Probation Department handled 401 cases referred by the local police departments
and school corporations.
Juvenile Probation Officers assist the
Noble County Prosecutor’s Office with determining which cases require the
Court’s intervention and which cases may be filed in other ways. In 2007, there
were 129 Juvenile Delinquent, Juvenile Status, and Juvenile Miscellaneous cases
filed by the Noble County Prosecutor’s Office.
The Noble County Probation Department has utilized grant funding for 6 of the
past 7 years through the Criminal
Justice Institute who administers the Juvenile Accountability Block Grant
which is ultimately funded by the Department
of Justice. This has allowed Probation Officers the opportunity to
supervise juveniles within the community at various times and places. This
allows our department to approach juvenile delinquency in a variety of ways,
ultimately trying to assist juveniles so that they are not incarcerated.
