What are the consequences of failing to report a change of address to my parole or probation officer?

In California, if you fail to report a change of address to your parole or probation officer, you can face serious consequences. This includes having your parole or probation revoked and/or being subject to arrest. First and foremost, when you are on parole or probation, you are obligated to keep your parole or probation officer informed of any changes to your address. If you fail to notify your parole or probation officer in a timely fashion about your change of address, you can be found in violation of the terms of your release. This can result in your parole or probation being revoked, meaning you may be sent back to custody. In addition, if you fail to report a change in address you may be subject to arrest. When your parole or probation officer discovers a change of address has not been reported they may issue a warrant for your arrest. If this happens, you may be taken into custody until further investigation. As you can see, it is important to keep your parole or probation officer informed of any changes in your address. Failure to do so can have serious consequences such as revocation of your parole or probation and/or arrest. It is therefore essential that you understand and abide by the terms of your release on parole or probation.
