What happens if the terms of my parole or probation are modified or changed?

If the terms of your parole or probation in Florida are modified or changed, you would be informed of these changes and given instructions on any new steps or requirements you must take. You would also be informed of the consequences for not following these new requirements or steps. If any of the changes to your parole or probation are related to a specific requirement such as completing classes or a program, you would likely have to resubmit a form showing evidence of completion. Your parole or probation officer will also confirm that you have completed whatever was required to meet the new terms. In some cases, you may be required to go back to court and appear before a judge if the terms of your parole or probation are modified. The judge would then review the changes and make a decision on whether to approve them. He or she may also ask you questions about why the terms have been changed and how you intend to meet them. The judge’s decision is final and any failure to meet the new terms of your parole or probation could result in additional charges or imprisonment.
