Parole Violation

Texas Statute

Texas Government Code § 508.281 ↗

Classification

Administrative / Felony (underlying offense)

Max Penalty

Return to TDCJ for remainder of original sentence

A parole violation occurs when a person released on parole from a Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) facility fails to comply with the conditions of their supervision. Common violations include failing a drug test, absconding (failing to report), traveling outside the approved area, contacting prohibited persons, or being arrested for a new offense. Parole violations are handled administratively by the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles — there is no jury trial. If the board finds a violation, the parolee can be returned to TDCJ to serve the remainder of their original sentence. If a new felony is committed, the parolee faces both revocation and prosecution on the new charge.

New felony offense committed while on parole	Separate prosecution + parole revocation — stacked sentences possible	§ 508.283
