What are the rights of someone on parole or probation in another state?

In Wisconsin, someone on parole or probation in another state has rights similar to those in Wisconsin. Generally, these rights include the right to contact their parole officer or probation officer, the right to have their parole officer or probation officer explain the terms of the parole or probation, the right to a hearing if they feel the terms of the parole or probation have been violated, and the right to be protected from discrimination based on their prior convictions. In Wisconsin, someone on parole or probation must be provided with written notification of the start of their parole or probation, the duration of their parole or probation, the terms of parole or probation, and any special conditions of release. They must also be aware of the consequences that could come from violating their parole or probation terms, such as additional criminal charges or a longer sentence. In addition, someone on parole or probation in another state must be provided with a written copy of the parole or probation agreement, which states their parole or probation terms and any special conditions of release. This agreement should also indicate the length of the parole or probation period. Finally, someone on parole or probation in another state has the right to contact their local parole or probation agency and ask questions if they need clarification on any of the terms of the parole or probation.
