Blood Tests. Blood tests measure the presence of IgE antibodies to specific foods. (IgE, short for âimmunoglobulin E,â is the antibody that triggers food allergy symptoms.) In the past, these tests were called âRASTsâ (which stands for radioallergosorbent tests) because they used radioactivity, but modern tests do not.our allergist should explain the meaning of the blood tests to you. The results are not very helpful for predicting the severity of an allergy. Instead, the test gives information about the chance that there is an allergy.
If the judge determines that you have spent enough time in jail between the arrest for the violation and the sentencing, the judge may give you time served. Time served is a popular sentence when you are found guilty of a violation of probation and the original charge is a minor one.
Probation in criminal law is a period of supervision over an offender, ordered by the court instead of serving time in prison. In some jurisdictions, the term probation applies only to community sentences (alternatives to incarceration), such as suspended sentences. In others, probation also includes supervision of those conditionally released from prison on parole. An offender on probation is ordered to follow certain conditions set forth by the court, often under the supervision of a probation officer. During the period of probation an offender faces the threat of being incarcerated if found breaking the rules set by the court or probation officer.
