How do I challenge a violation of parole or probation?

If you believe you have been wrongfully charged with violating your parole or probation in Wisconsin, you can challenge the violation in court. In order to challenge the violation you must first be notified of the allegations against you. This notification will normally come in the form of a written document that outlines the alleged violation. Once you have received the notification, you can contest the violation by filing an appeal with the court. You should file this appeal as soon as possible since there is a limited amount of time to do so. In your appeal, you should provide evidence and arguments that refute the violation. This could include witness testimony, medical records, or other evidence that contradicts the facts of the case. If your appeal is denied, you can then move forward to a trial. During the trial, you and the state’s attorney will present evidence and testimony to prove your innocence. If you are successful, the court will either dismiss the violation or impose lesser punishment than the violation would have otherwise warranted. If you are unsuccessful in challenging the parole or probation violation, you will be required to serve out whatever sentence the state has imposed. It is important to remember that any violation of parole or probation can be serious and can have long-lasting consequences. For this reason, it is always best to consult with an experienced attorney before attempting to challenge a violation.
