Costs That You May Incur While Under House Arrest
Being sentenced to house arrest is a likely outcome of being charged with a crime as a first-time offender. The judge will hope that your sentence of house arrest — which is harsh to some degree, but lenient to another — will allow you to have remorse for your actions and make a commitment that you won't run afoul of the law again. While you may not have to pay a fine in conjunction with your sentence of house arrest, you shouldn't expect that this punishment won't cost you in any way.
