New Jersey Parole Violation Attorney
Violation of Parole
Parole is conditional release from prison under supervision. It is usually awarded to inmates after they have served a specific portion of their sentence and demonstrated good behavior while in prison. Like probation, parole frequently comes with terms and conditions that must be complied with strictly. If parolees do not comply with the conditions of their parole, they risk a violation and being returned to prison.
