Does the Parole Board add special conditions before or after the parolee is released?

5 views 3 answers
My fiancee is due to be released In December. He has already signed parole papers but I have heard that parole can add special conditions such as alcohol classes, and no contact with me since we were involved in a DV case. I am wondering if they will send any special conditions to him while he is still incarcerated or do they impose them at his first meeting with his PO?

Contact with you could definitely be an issue, especially if he was imprisoned because of a DV-related crime. Is there a criminal protective order against him because of that DV case? If that's so, you're going to have to go back to court and get it undone. And that's just the first step. The parole agents don't automatically honor the court's finding with regard to CPOs. There is an administrative process in place to challenge conditions of parole. He must exhaust his administrative remedies before he can go before a court for a judge examine the parole agent's decision. The agent's imposed special conditions are parolee-specific, so no one on this site can predict what the BPT will or won't do; I'm sure you understand that. So sit tight and don't communicate anything - either by phone or in writing - which will give an agent a reason to suspect that your finance has social problems, such as drug addiction or alcohol abuse. Because, as you know, this communication is monitored.

Who knows? They can add conditions as they see fit given the circumstances.

PO's can add special conditions as long as there is a basis for the conditions. Your fiancee will be notified of these conditions . If there are any questions, have your fiancee ask his PO
