What is a parole hold in California county jail?
A parole hold is generally the authorization to detain a person suspected of violating condition(s) of their parole. Parole holds are governed by federal and state laws, which vary by state. For example, under California laws, a parole officer can impose a hold if the officer concludes that there is reasonable cause to believe the parolee has violated a condition of his parole and is a danger to himself, a danger to the person or property of another, or may abscond. A parole hold authorizes the detention of a parolee charged with an alleged parole violation pending a parole revocation hearing. The parole officer is not required to obtain an arrest warrant prior to placing the hold and taking the parolee into custody. Within seven days after detention pursuant to the parole hold, the parolee must be notified of the reasons for the hold.
Under what circumstances can a person be placed on a parole hold?
It's pretty much up to the parole agent. There's such a wide scope that corrections has that they can violate a parolee at will.
Where do you find out a persons parole decision?
Inmates typically are notified of the parole decision within thirty days of the hearing. It is possible in some situations for this to take longer, but typically the inmate is notified of this as well.
Can a person be on probation and parole at the same time?
Yes, however, it's very rare. Under general circumstances, if the individual is on parole, then they've just been released from a state correctional facility. For the individual to be put on probation (after release), it means that the parolee committed a new crime, which means the parolee also violated the parole agreement. If this were to happen, usually, the parole would be revoked and the individual would go back to prison. However, in rare circumstances, the parole board will give the parolee "another chance", and not send the parolee to prison.
What can you do if a parolee has threatened you or assaulted you?
You do nothing. The person who was threatened may file charges with local law enforcement for Communicating a Threat against the person who threatened them. Keep in mind that little may actually be done to address the allegation, but that there may be consequences you may face.
Can a person who completed their parole be violated a year later?
Some states have supervised parole and unsupervised parole. A felon graduates from supervised parole and then is still on parole for a number of years without having to check in. They can be 'violated' for offenses in that time. If a person on parole is shown to have committed a serious offense while on parole, but it only becomes known after parole has ended, it was still a violation and is still punishable. Also some states have certain crimes where the parolee will always be effectively on parole, forever. Child molesters and rapists sometimes receive this. Once, however, the parolee is discharged, the jurisdiction of the DOC is ended. Keep in mind that parole stipulations are Administrative Rules and do not carry the weight of law. Once the parolee is free of the jurisdiction of the DOC, he is free, no matter what rule it may be discovered he bent or broke while on parole. The time for the DOC to act is while the individual is under their custody. They may try, but can be effectively blocked by a court of law.
Can a parole officer charge a parolee criminally in N J?
Yes, parole officer are law enforcement officers with full police powers in NJ. The difference is their day to day duties. Parole officers primary job duty is to supervise parolees under parole supervision. That means to make sure the person under supervision is complying with the conditions imposed by the State Parole Board before they were released. Most parole officers spend their time filing administartive charges (parole violations) on violators, but at times new charges (family, friends, or on the parolee) are unavoidable.
If a person on parole used your address then moved out is your address still being used?
If the parolee failed to change the address he had on file with the parole office then your address is the one that is still being listed as his residence. You can, and should, contact the parole office and notify them that he no longer resides there.
If you are living with a person that violates parole can they arrest you?
Parole violations that are not criminal violations also are not criminally prosecutable. Rules violations or "Technical Rules violations" are just that, violations of rules established by the parole board, the DOC, and the office of the governor. They carry no more weight legally than administrative rules. The violation of such affect no one other than the parolee. That being said, provided you are not implicated in a criminal act, you cannot "legally" be arrested for the parole violation of a parolee.
Can a parolee in Missouri have a dog?
Of course; why not? Unless they are ordered by the parole board not to own or sell dogs, for instance if the person was convicted of dog fighting or animal abuse.
How often does a parole officer visit a parole?
The frequency of visits by a parole officer to a parolee can vary based on several factors, including the parolee's risk level, compliance with parole conditions, and specific state or agency policies. Typically, visits may occur weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, with more frequent check-ins for higher-risk individuals or those with a history of non-compliance. Additionally, some parolees may have telephone check-ins instead of in-person visits. Overall, the goal is to ensure that the parolee adheres to the terms of their release and receives necessary support.
