Can you get probation violation until found guilty?

If you are on probation you have already been found guilty. Probation is a sentence for being found guilty. If you commit a violation of your probation you don't get a separate trial for that violation. It means that you have put yourself in jeapordy of the original sentencing judge remanding you to jail to serve the remainder of your sentence. You don't get two bites at the apple.

The term parole comes from where?

Attested 1616, "word of honor," especially "promise by a prisoner of war not to escape," from French parole "word, speech" (in parole d'honneur "word of honor") from Gallo-Romance root paraula "speech, discourse," from Early Latin parabola. Sense of "conditional release ( prisoner ) before full term" is first attested 1908 in criminal slang. The verb (1716) originally was what the prisoner did ("pledge"); transitive meaning "put on parole" first attested 1853

Can a parole officer change the length of time a person is on parole?

An offender's parole term cannot be extended, but probation can. It is possible to be discharged from both early, but early discharges from parole are rare.

While parole cannot technically be extended by a Parole Officer, it can be extended by the Parole Board, and can effectively be extended by situations that create "dead time" such as time spent in rehabilitation or in custody for a potential violation of conditions.

How do you transfer probation from Oklahoma to California?

First you must petition the sentencing court to allow you to transfer your probation and get the court's permission to do so. Then you must determine if CA will even accept the responsibility for accepting your transfer. Remember - it costs money to supervise a probationer. From what I hear of CA, they haven't got any money to spare. I advise you not to hold your breath.

Your probation officer is asking you to take a DNA test but it might be to detect drugs how far back can it detect marijuana?

A DNA test should have no indication of marijuana usage, regardless of how long ago it was smoked. It could perhaps tell you of any likely adverse drug reactions based on your DNA, but nothing of what you have actually or already taken.

Answer:Are you sure this is what is being asked of you? Odds are you are being asked for a DNA sample. This is per federal law in the event of a felony or high court misdemeanor conviction and all convictions of crimes that can result in a requirement to register for the Sex Offender registry. You cannot fight it successfully.

Although, if you have been using illegal drugs, it would be best to comply with the requests of your PO, ask him what the purpose of the "test" is, and if it is to detect illegal drugs, confess your use of them to him and ask for rehab. Anything else may result in violation of your probation.

Since the 1990s the number of prison inmates skyrocketed According to the article is that the cause of declining crime rates?

Since the 1990s, there have been new categories of crime added. The ever increasing types of drug trafficing and sales and the new laws to combat that; new types of laws to address domestic violence and stalking, just to name a few. Prior to the eighties, these last two were not criminalized and victims had to fend for themselves.

Still addressing the sharp rise in prison inmates over the past 20 years, many new effective tools have been developed, in particular, the sciences, computer investigation, tracking telephone and financial records. As the crime rate went down, authorities developed cold case squads to solve old crimes that they couldn't solve 15 and 20 years ago. These new methods have been very effective.

I don't know the source of your statistics; my trust in them goes only so far. Back in the '90s, I got into a "discussion" with a friend about whether the violent crime rate was up or down; she said up and I said stayed about the same. After looking into how to find those numbers and who reports them, I found out that the US Dept. of Justice uses reports from law enforcement agencies around the country and the FBI used telephone surveys, contacting a cross section of Americans and asking them about their experience with violent crime for the past 12 months. Sure enough, the Dept. of Justice numbers said it was up and the FBI said it was down. Why the difference? Because law enforcement agencies are government agencies depending on getting funding for the next fiscal year. Go figure. So always understand whose numbers you are quoting and what they're based on.

How does a probation work for an assault case?

Is Disorderly Conduct Criminally Admissible in Canada?

From the information that I've gathered, Disorderly Conduct in itself does not make one inadmissible to Canada. According to the Canadian Immigration, a person is criminally inadmissible if they have "been convicted of, outside of Canada, TWO or more acts that, if committed in Canada, would be equivalent to summary offenses." Disorderly Conduct in Canada is considered a summary offense, so if you have only been convicted of Disorderly Conduct and nothing else, you should not have to worry about being criminally inadmissible in Canada.
