Frank v. United States

Frank v. United States, 395 U.S. 147 (1969), was a U.S. Supreme Court case in which it was held that when an offender is placed on probation, and the maximum sentence for violating probation is no more than six months, the crime falls into the category of a petty offense, and therefore the defendant is not entitled to a jury trial.[1]
