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

In Kansas, if terms of your parole or probation are modified or changed, it is important to know what the new requirements are and abide by them. Depending on the situation, you may be required to meet additional requirements that were not originally part of your parole or probation. You are expected to follow all new terms without exception. If you violate any of the new conditions of probation or parole, you may be charged with a parole or probation violation. This could lead to additional requirements being added, or the revocation of your parole or probation. Depending on the severity, you may need to serve jail or prison time or may receive additional fines or fees. If you believe that you have been given an unreasonable or unfair modification, you should reach out to your probation or parole officer and explain why you think it is unreasonable. Your officer may be able to help you negotiate a better outcome. If the new terms cannot be modified, it is important to obey them as failure to do so can lead to further disciplinary action.
