What is a supervised release violation?
There are, unfortunately, many ways to violate supervise release – not submitting monthly reports, having a dirty drug test, or being arrested for new criminal conduct. The best thing a defendant can do in those situations is to immediately call his or her public defender. Often, defense counsel can work with their client and with Probation to avoid supervised release violations being charged. When a Probation Officer files supervised release charges, they are contained in a charging document called a “Probation Form 12.” If the defendant cannot afford an attorney, the public defender will be appointed for these revocation proceedings.
