62090.5.3 Parole Violator Hearing

  • A Parole Violator Hearing is held to consider if good cause exists to revoke a parolee’s parole and return them to custody. These hearings are held at the local jail or at a parole violator processing facility within 45 days of arrest. Some parolees may be returned to prison before the hearing, as in the case of parolees with a severe mental illness, persons in overcrowded local facilities, or out-of-state absconders. Only the parole violation report and supporting documents are necessary.
