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.
The simple answer is you don't, and it will not matter regardless. If while on parole you are charged with another felony, your parole will be violated, and you will be returned to prison.
He was released on parole.An arrest warrant was issued because he violated the conditions of his parole.
Not enough info given in order to answer - however - if you violated your parole then you did not complete the terms of your sentence, just the same as if you had escaped from jail or prison, and are subject to arrest as a fugitive from justice.
No. If you commit a crime while on parole, you will have violated the provisions of your parole and it is almost certain that you will be returned to prison to serve out the term of your original sentence. Additionally, if convicted of the new offense, you will probably have that sentence added to whatever original term you were serving for the first offense.
This violated the treaty. You have violated our friendship.
Why would you need a hearing if you are not violated
YES YOU SURE CAN!! I HAVE BEEN ON PAROLE FOR 4 YEARS NOW AND THE FIRST TIME I FAILED A DRUG TEST I WAS VIOLATED.
If he is deputized with law enforcement officer status in your state, the PO may arrest anyone he witnesses committing a felony or class A misdemeanor. If he has not been deputized, he may detain criminal violators until local jurisdiction law enforcement arrives.
If the PO is a sworn law enforcement officer in their state, yes, they have the same arrest powers.
When you do report to your parole officer, he'll arrest you.
Any violation of any criminal statute, felony or misdemeanor, is a violation of parole.
A warrant for your arrest will be issued - and seeing that it is parole that may get revoked.
