Odds are you will be returned to custody. Depending on the severity of the violation, you may be put on more sever restrictions or even returned to prison.

Can parole be violated in Louisiana on a misdemeanor arrest?

Parole officers/Parole Board have HUGELY broad discretion under
the laws of this state (I think all states really). Absolutely they
can "violate" a parolee; moreover, for an arrest of any time they
can "revoke" parole altogether, sending a parolee back into custody
for the remainder of her original sentence at time of parole (it's
statutory law, don't know citation). Oh, and this most drastic
penalty applies not just for a misdemeanor arrest, but even a
lesser infraction (common example i've noticed: parolee late or
absent at hearing, etc.)
me, I think that's big scary power. In Louisiana, there's not a
whole lot of rhyme or reason to the parole/probation processes,
just the condescending assurance that these are a blessing from
heaven, and that they are angry gawds
That's the simple answer...I'm not qualified to elaborate.
