Will Louisiana grant a release from parole if you are behind on your monthly payments when you have reached your full time date?

Answer 1

This question is a bit confusing, but I will do my best to answer. I am not certain what you mean by "monthly payments." If this is victim or restitution fees, court costs, fines, or other matters related to your sentencing, you are likely to be released, but the remaining fees will be referred to a collection agency. It is possible too that your parole could be extended until unpaid fees are paid in full. If this is costs associated with your parole, such as supervision fees, tether fees, or vehicle equipment installation cost (breathalizer), you may be required to pay them before you are released. The reference to "full time date" has me a bit thrown. If by this you mean your conditional release date, the date your parole is projected to end, well nothing is certain. If by this you mean the discharge date of your original sentence, this is a bit more certain, and to have parole extended beyond this date, the parole officer, potentially the parole board and State's Attorney General would probably have to motion the original sentencing judge or the supervising judge of the court in which you were sentenced to extend your sentence. The simple solution is to pay the debt and avoid the mess altogether.
