Discharge of probation orders

(1) The court by which a probation order was made may, on the application of the probationer or of the Community Rehabilitation Officer responsible for his supervision, discharge the probation order, and where the application is made by the Community Rehabilitation Officer, the court may deal with it without summoning the probationer. (2) Where an offender in respect of whom a probation order has been made is subsequently sentenced for the offence in respect of which the probation order was made, the probation order shall cease to have effect.
