Long Island parole violations lawyer Jason Bassett (https://jbassettlaw.com/parole-violations-lawyer/) releases a new article explaining the differences between parole and probation. The lawyer mentions that while it may seem like a relief to receive parole, any violation related to the conditions of the parole can send someone back to prison right away.

According to the Long Island parole violations lawyer, “Parole is an early discharge from prison confinement under stringent guidelines. An individual on parole is still serving a sentence, but they are doing so outside the prison system.”

The lawyer explains that the terms of parole usually depend on the sentence and the severity of the charge. The offender’s behavior during the time they are inside the prison can also help define the terms of the parole.

Attorney Jason Bassett also explains the difference between parole and probation in this article. While the two terms are usually used interchangeably, they are actually very different from each other.

In the article, the lawyer adds, “An individual who is on probation still remains under the supervision of the court and is subject to stringent rules throughout the term of the probation.” As for parole, attorney Bassett says that “Parole is a conditional early release of a sentence overseen by the correctional system. Once the offender has served their designated minimum time, they may be able to go before the parole board to seek an early release. That early release will be subject to very strict conditions.”

The Long Island parole violation lawyer also explains that the concept behind parole is to give convicted prisoners the hope of freedom if they show improvement inside the correctional facility. However, despite this, parole violations are common and can send the offender back to prison with years added to their sentences.

Aside from the aforementioned, the parole violation lawyer also talks about common parole violations. This includes moving without first discussing it with the supervisor, failing to report to the supervisor, leaving the state without permission, not abiding by a set curfew, failing a urinalysis, and more.

Lastly, attorney Jason Bassett mentions that parole violators are categorized into three and consequences will be based on what category the violator falls into. The lawyer also emphasizes the importance of having an experienced parole violation lawyer when appealing to fight any alleged parole violation.
