bench parole

Read a random definition: civil investigative demand

A quick definition of bench parole:

Probation is a type of punishment given by a court to a person who has committed a crime. Instead of going to jail, the person is allowed to live in the community as long as they follow certain rules. These rules are set by the court and may include things like staying away from certain people or places, attending counseling, or doing community service. A probation officer may be assigned to check on the person and make sure they are following the rules. If the person breaks the rules, they may have to go to jail. Probation can end when the time period is up, or if the court decides to end it early or revoke it because the person broke the rules.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Bench parole is a type of probation where the offender agrees to certain conditions or restrictions and reports only to the sentencing judge instead of a probation officer. It is a court-imposed criminal sentence that releases a convicted person into the community instead of sending them to jail or prison.

Examples:

  • A judge may sentence a first-time offender to bench parole, requiring them to attend counseling and stay away from drugs and alcohol.
  • Another example of bench parole is when a judge orders a convicted person to perform community service and report back to them on their progress.

These examples illustrate how bench parole is a form of probation that allows the offender to remain in the community while being monitored by the sentencing judge. The judge sets specific conditions that the offender must follow, and if they fail to comply, the judge may revoke their probation and send them to jail or prison.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
