What Are The Basic Types Of Parole Violations?
– RJ, Texas
Answer:
There are two basic types of parole violations. The first are law violations. The second is administrative violations.
A standard condition of parole is to not violate any laws. If someone is accused of violating the law, they will not get a hearing until their charge is finished by dismissal, plea or trial. The second type of parole violation is an administrative violation.
This can be anything from changing residence, failure to report, failure to pay fees or testing positive for drugs. Most parolees have a combination of violations. A person can be revoked for either type of violation.
