New York Probation Lawyer
Defense for People Accused of Violating Probation or Parole
A probation violation takes place when an individual on parole fails to comply with the stipulated terms of their probation. The designated probation officer is responsible for monitoring adherence to these conditions. In the event of a violation, the judge will be informed, and a hearing will be arranged to reassess the penalties imposed on the parolee.
Once an individual has been arrested and accused of violating parole, they cannot be released from custody until the allegations have been resolved through a hearing. Unfortunately, legal provisions allow the Division of Parole to postpone this hearing for up to 90 days. Unless the Division decides to withdraw the charges, the individual will remain incarcerated for a minimum of 90 days, even if they prevail at the hearing. Prompt and critical decisions must be made following an arrest for a parole violation. It is essential to engage a knowledgeable and assertive criminal defense attorney immediately to assist in navigating these decisions and safeguard your future.
