The best answer to give the PO when you forget to report is as follows:
"I am sorry I was so stupid as to forget to report. I swear to you that I will never do that again. Please, please don't violate me and send me back."
This is easy. Play the game! Unless your freedom means nothing, you have no other choice. You did what you did to put yourself under the power of the state. Live with that fact and do as you should, or get used to swallowing your pride and begging for mercy. Keep in mind, though, this may only work once.
Edit: It was easy for me! Id say, "I got called into work again and didnt have time to call you! Someone called in and they gave me 15 minutes to get there." They would call my employer and Id do it again the next time too!
When you do report to your parole officer, he'll arrest you.
Report periodically and pee in a cup.
You don't. A parole officer is not a law enforcement officer. The parole officer is a supervising agent. If you have evidence that someone on parole or off has committed a crime of any type, contact law enforcement, give the evidence you have to them, and let the system take care of it.
You may get sent back to prison.
If it is necessary for you to report an absconder, you may contact the local Parole Office and ask to speak to the Parole Officer of the abscondee.
a parole officer is a person you report to when you get out of jail or prison they make sure you are acting right and getting your life on track the right way , makin sure your not doing drugs , carrying wepons etc. whatever your parole terms are
Check your release papers. Everything you need to know is there, and largely specific to your release.
A parole officer is an officer of the court who meets with people after they get out of prison or jail. Parole is a supervised monitoring of individuals after they leave prison, including making sure people have a job, stay off of drugs and alcohol, and keep a curfew set by the court. The parole officer monitors and checks a person, sometimes just by meetings in their office, but sometimes by checking a person in their home. A parole officer has authority to arrest a person and put them back in jail if they break the rules of parole, which are the conditions for staying out of jail.
It's up to your parole officer. I would report it to your supervisor with a good explanation.
If the parole officers have email available for outside use, you could call the Parole Office to ask for that PO's email address. Or, you could simply write a letter and send it by snail mail. Or, you could just call the parole office and speak directly to the PO.
It probably depends most on your parole officer. Though no surveys have been taken, many parolees in California report that their parole officers are sympathetic to the use of medical marijuana.
If you failed to report and a warrant was issued before your discharge date for not reporting then yes. If you were arrested on a new charge that is prosecuted before your discharge date then I am pretty sure the parole hold would need cancelled on your discharge date. If you were discharged then "caught a new case" it would not be a parole violation because you would no longer be on parole.
