What if I am unable to meet the requirements for a special condition of parole or probation?

If you are unable to meet the requirements for a special condition of parole or probation, you will likely experience sanctions that can include being required to serve additional jail time, or having your probation or parole revoked. Depending on the nature of the violation, you may be given one or more opportunities to correct the violation with an established plan of action, such as specific conditions and goals to be met. Ultimately, the parole or probation officer assigned to your case has the discretion to determine what actions should be taken. For example, if you are on probation and fail to complete any of the special conditions you were ordered to complete, the officer could decide to give you a warning or to adjust the conditions if they feel it would be more beneficial. In other cases, the officer may impose sanctions such as additional probation or parole terms, including orders to attend counseling or drug education programs, or to abstain from drugs and alcohol. Additionally, the officer may require additional hours of community service, restrictions on your travel, or the revocation of your probation or parole. If you fail to comply with the conditions of your probation or parole, it is important to contact your probation or parole officer as soon as possible to discuss the situation and work with them on what steps to take next. Ultimately, your parole or probation officer has the authority to determine what course of action will be taken in order to ensure that you adhere to the special conditions of your parole or probation.
