PROBATION VS. PAROLE IN NYS- by Darby Larkin
PROBATION: a county function, it is part of someone’s sentence. Supervised by a ‘probation officer’ (employed by a county probation department, ie Warren County Probation Office). Someone can be sentenced to “straight probation” (their sentence is only probation), or given a “split sentence”, where they serve an amount of time in jail or prison then go on probation.
Example: Jimmy is given a “split sentence” of 6 months in jail followed by 2 years on probation. Maria is given “straight probation” and sentenced to 3 years on probation.
PAROLE: a state function, it’s a way to shorten someone’s prison sentence. Halfway through a state prison sentence they are eligible to be ‘paroled’. If they violate parole, the conditions of their parole can be changed, or parole can be ‘revoked’ and they can be incarcerated. They are supervised by a ‘parole officer’ (state officials, employed by NYS Department of Corrections and Community Corrections).
Example: Joe is sentenced to 4 years in prison. After 2 years, he can go before the parole board and ask to be paroled. If they grant him parole, he can leave prison and live in the community, supervised by a parole officer.
Both probation and parole involve living ‘in the community’ (not incarcerated) and being supervised by a P.O. (Probation/Parole Officer). This includes following a set of conditions (ie do not commit any crimes, do not drink alcohol or do any drugs, you must complete addiction treatment, keep a job) and reporting to your PO on a regular basis. How often you must report and in what ways depend on the charge and someone’s history. You may just have to check in at the parole office once a month, or you may be expected to do daily check-in calls with your PO or PO office. MAKE SURE TO CHECK WITH YOUR PO ABOUT YOUR SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS.
CAN YOU BE ON PAROLE AND PROBATION AT THE SAME TIME? Yes. Usually if someone is on both, they will be instructed to just meet with their parole officer until their parole is completed, then they will begin meeting with their probation officer.
