Division 75 - PROCEDURES FOR RESPONSES TO PAROLE AND POST-PRISON SUPERVISION CONDITIONS VIOLATIONS FOR OFFENDERS UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE BOARD OF PAROLE AND POST-PRISON SUPERVISION OR LOCAL SUPERVISORY AUTHORITY
Section 255-075-0042 - Probable Cause; Preliminary Hearing; Deferral of Revocation Hearing

(1) The Sanction Authority or Hearings Officer may use evidence received and the order of a court at a preliminary hearing or a conviction or other reliable, relevant information to establish that probable cause exists to believe that the offender has committed a violation of a condition of parole or post-prison supervision.

(2) Should the offender waive the right to a preliminary hearing, the waiver shall constitute a waiver of a probable cause hearing.

(3) When the Sanction Authority or Hearings Officer defers completion of a violation hearing until a trial is over and until the court or the parole and post-prison supervision officer notifies the Sanction Authority or Hearings Officer of the final disposition of the case, the Sanction Authority or Hearings Officer shall use a finding of probable cause to support the decision to suspend and detain an offender charged with the commission of a new crime.

(4) Notwithstanding subsection (3) of this section, the Sanction Authority or Hearings Officer shall not extend a deferral following a finding of probable cause for a period greater than 120 days from the date of the preliminary hearing or waiver, unless the offender is released from jail pending final disposition of the case, or waives in writing further delay. Subsequent waivers shall not extend beyond 120 days.
