Parole Rules & Regulations
Know the Rules - Stay Informed - Stay Free
The key to successfully completing your term of parole is knowing what you can and cannot do while under supervision. Parole rules and regulations are set by the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, and enforced by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. This also covers what parole officers can and cannot do while you are under their supervision and how they must assist you while reintegrating into society. The entire set of rules and regulations is about 800 pages long.
Every rule and regulation can be found on TDCJ’s website, and each one has its own page. The Texas Parole Authority has conveniently compiled all of these rules and regulations into one e-book, or, if your loved one prefers print or is about to be released, a print version is also available. This book is kept up to date as parole rules and regulations can change several times throughout the year.
Knowledge is the key to a successful re-entry.
The transition from incarceration to parole is filled with strict requirements and high stakes. One misunderstanding of the rules can lead to a technical violation and a return to confinement. The Texas Parole Authority is designed to bridge the information gap, providing a clear and organized look at the laws that govern life on parole in Texas.
Inside, you will find:
The Rights and Responsibilities of every parolee.
The Standard Operating Procedures for parole officers.
Detailed Breakdowns of reporting, travel restrictions, and specialized conditions.
Don't leave your freedom to chance. Arm yourself with the official rules and ensure every step taken is in compliance with the state.
