### sec.120 Amendment and revocation of community based orders generally
The court that made a community based order other than an order to which section 120A applies may, on application under this division, amend or revoke the order if the court is satisfied—
that the offender is not able to comply with the order because the offender’s circumstances have materially altered since the order was made; or
that the circumstances of the offender were wrongly stated or were not accurately presented to the court; or
that the offender is no longer willing to comply with the order.
If a court other than the court that imposed the community based order amends or revokes the order, the first court must notify the original court of the amendment or revocation.
