What happens if I fail to report to my parole or probation officer for a scheduled meeting?

In South Carolina, failure to report to a parole or probation officer for a scheduled meeting is a serious violation that can result in serious consequences. Parolees and probationers are often required to report to their parole or probation officers on a regular basis in order to make sure they are following the rules set out by the court. If a parolee or probationer misses a scheduled meeting or fails to report to their parole or probation officer, they can face additional criminal charges, and possibly even have their parole or probation revoked. If a parolee or probationer misses a meeting, their parole or probation officer will likely contact them and try to schedule a new meeting. If the parolee or probationer continues to disregard these notices and fails to report, the parole or probation officer may decide to file a violation report. This report can then be taken to a judge, who can decide to reinstate the parole or probation, modify the terms, or revoke it altogether. Revocation of parole or probation can result in the individual going back to jail or prison to serve out the remainder of their sentence. The consequences for missing a scheduled meeting with a parole or probation officer in South Carolina are severe and should not be taken lightly.
