TDCJ Home Programs and Services Division Parole and Probation Compact Administrator's Association (PPCAA) PURPOSE The purpose of the Interstate Compact for the Supervision of Parolees and Probationers is to maximize public safety by addressing the transfer of supervision requirements of the member states and territories. Parole boards, courts and probation agencies are not able to handle the planning for and supervision of probationers and parolees when their residence and family resources exist outside their political boundaries. Most required levels of community based supervision are available through the cooperation of Interstate Offices in the transfer of supervision. PROGRAM OVERVIEW: Supervision of offenders on community supervision (probation) or parole, who meet specific eligibility criteria, may be transferred to another state under the Interstate Compact system. All 50 of the United States of America, the District of Columbia, and several U.S. territories participate as members of the Compact. The Texas Probation and Parole Interstate Compact is administered through the TDCJ Interstate Compact Office.

Lamm Governor 136 State Capitol Building Denver, CO 80203 RE: Conditional pardons intended to effect the deportation of foreign nationals convicted of felonies in Colorado Dear Governor Lamm: I write in response to your February 9, 1984 inquiry about your authority to conditionally pardon a foreign national subject to detainer for deportation by the United States government. QUESTION PRESENTED AND CONCLUSION You ask specifically: Can the Governor conditionally pardon a foreign national subject to detainer by the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service for deportation and provide that the pardon shall be revoked if the person pardoned illegally returns to the United States? My conclusion is "yes." ANALYSIS The Governor has the power to conditionally pardon individuals as long as the conditions imposed are not illegal, immoral, or impossible to perform. ( See Attorney General's Opinion of December 23, 1983). A condition requiring a convicted foreign national to remove himself from the United States is neither immoral nor impossible to perform but is illegal because it fails to recognize the primacy of federal authority in this area (see Attorney General's Opinion of December 23, 1983). This obstacle is removed when pardons are conditioned upon deportation by the federal government and revoked upon a showing of an

Home Board Members Divisions Annual Reports ... Contact Us Main content begins below Home Board Members Divisions Annual Reports ... Index History On February 18, 1961, Governor Buford Ellington signed into law an act passed by the Eighty-Second Session of the General Assembly, placing a part-time Board of Probation and Paroles as a division of the Department of Correction. The Commissioner of Correction served as chairman and two members were appointed by the Governor, one such member had to be a practicing attorney in this state and the other member selected from the business or educational field. In 1963, legislation was passed increasing the size of the Board to five part-time members, the Governor being empowered to appoint four of its members. In 1970 the Governor began appointing all five members, with the Commissioner of Correction no longer serving as chairman. April 4, 1972, was an important date in the historical development of the Tennessee Board of Paroles. It was on this date that Governor Winfield Dunn signed into law House Bill No. 582 passed by the Eighty-Seventh General Assembly creating a full-time board with set terms established by statute, to be known as the Tennessee Board of Pardons and Paroles. The board consisted of three members, the first full time charter Board Members were Charles Traughber, Dorothy Greer and Joseph Mitchell, each appointed by Governor Winfield Dunn. Terms of appointments were for six years, with initial appointments being for staggered terms of two, four and six years respectively. The Governor also appointed a Chairman whose term of office was two years, with a maximum of three (3) consecutive terms.

HISTORY Probation in Alabama HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT The Constitution of 1901 gave the Governor the power to grant paroles. It also provided for the establishment of a Board of Pardons composed of the Attorney General, the State Auditor, and the Secretary of State to advise the Governor on parole and clemency matters. In 1919, an act was passed providing for the imposition of indeterminate sentences upon certain persons convicted of felonies and for the parole of such persons at the expiration of the minimum sentence by the Board of Pardons without the approval of the Governor. This act was repealed in 1939 and now only definite sentences are authorized. In 1935, the Governor created by executive order the Alabama Parole Bureau to make an independent study of prisoners confined in the prisons of Alabama to recommend to the Governor those worthy of test paroles. The bureau was composed of a chairman, an associate member and a secretary. Only one parole officer was provided for the investigation and supervision of prisoners. PROBATION IN ALABAMA Adult probation in Alabama began on August 24, 1939, when the Governor approved an enabling act giving the legislature power to authorize adult probation.

Pardon Me! The Pardon Resource Center 12 Steps to a Federal Pardon by Jerome P. Mullins , Attorney at Law of Silicon Valley, U.S.A. Friday, 11-Apr-2003 02:12:28 GMT Welcome visitor from (none)! Coming Soon! The California Pardon Center. Click here to see the beta version. Introduction W elcome to the federal section of "Pardon Me!" the Pardon Resource Center of the World Wide Web. If you are a person who has been convicted of a felony offense in a federal court or by military court martial and who has an interest in improving the situation by applying for a presidential pardon, I hope you find this material to be very interesting and helpful. If you assumed that the odds of success in applying for a presidential pardon are not encouraging, you are correct. President Clinton, for example, has granted fewer than 100 pardons so far in his term of office. The preparation required of you to apply is exacting and detailed. Reexamining a part of your life when your conduct was officially adjudged to be criminal will understandably create feelings you wanted to leave behind a long time ago. Your application will trigger an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation that may lead them to visit with and interview your neighbors, friends, family and employer. If you make an honest mistake in the disclosure of all your indiscretions that led to even so much as a conviction of a minor traffic violation whether before or after your federal felony offense, you will be presumed to have misrepresented yourself under oath and deemed unfit for a pardon and possibly even prosecuted for perjury under federal law. So why even bother to apply for a presidential pardon? Who needs this?

15. General Conditions – Danish Prison And Probation Service prepare proposals for preventive measures, general principles of The vast majorityof pardons are granted before Department of Prisons and probation Version 1 http://www.kriminalforsorgen.dk/uk_web/uk_info/prisons2001/danish_prison-4.htm

Danish Prison and Probation Service General conditions General conditions In Denmark the punishment is the actual deprivation of liberty, and the inmate retains his ordinary civil rights during the sentence. Only the restrictions necessarily following from the deprivation of liberty may be imposed on the inmate. According to the principle of normalisation, life in prison must therefore be related to normal life in the general community to the greatest extent possible. Basically, the same rules apply to persons who serve a sentence in a local prison and to persons who serve in a closed prison. But the physical conditions, especially in the small local prisons, dictate certain practical differences during the term of the sentence. On average, remand prisoners take up half of the places in the local prisons in Denmark; the remaining places are used for convicted persons. In the prison, as a general rule the inmate has his own cell/room of about seven sq. metres. The local prisons also typically have single cells, but they have cells for two or three persons as well. It has been decided to abolish the three-man cells to the extent possible. If the convicted offender is at large, he normally has one month from the passing of the sentence to the earliest date he can expect to have to start serving his sentence. The offender can use this period to make arrangements for his lodging during the term of his sentence, put his furniture into storage, make arrangements with his employer or place of education, arrange matters with his bank and, not least, find out how his spouse and children, if any, are to manage during the term of his imprisonment.

Danish Prison and Probation Service Probation Probation The main tasks of the probation centres are to supervise offenders, prepare pre-sentence reports for court purposes, carry out welfare work for remand prisoners and take part in crime-preventive work of a more general nature. Mainly social workers or persons with corresponding education as well as administrative clerical staff carry out the work of the centres. In addition fee-paid supervisors and pre-sentence reporters as well as medical consultants and a number of specialists and specially trained people are attached to each centre. Supervision A condition of supervision can be stipulated either by the courts in connection with suspended sentences and probation orders, or administratively in connection with releases on parole and conditional pardons. The purpose of supervision is partly to guide offenders into or retain them in the general community by means of various aiding activities, partly to prevent new crime by ensuring that offenders comply with conditions, if any. Therefore, a condition of supervision entails both support and control. The person subject to supervision must report regularly to the supervisor or accept his visits in the home and always notify him of any change in his residential address or basis of maintenance. If the supervised client does not comply with these rules, he may be arrested, and as an extreme consequence the court or the Department of Prisons and Probation may decide either that a suspended sentence will be varied so that it has to be served or that a parolee must serve the remainder of his sentence.

[Return to Parole Home] Parole Division History of Parole in Texas The first parole law was enacted by the Texas Legislature in 1905. That law gave power to the Board of Prison Commissioners and the Board of Pardons Advisors, with the approval of the Governor, to make rules and regulations under which certain meritorious prisoners might be paroled. Those who had served two years or one-fourth of their terms were eligible for parole, provided they were first-time offenders and had not been sentenced for certain offenses. In 1911, legislation was passed which empowered the Board of Prison Commissioners alone to make rules and regulations, subject to the Governor’s approval, for the parole of prisoners. This law provided that meritorious prisoners were to be eligible for parole after having served the minimum terms fixed by statute for the crime and conviction. It also provided for a parole agent or supervisor to keep the state informed about the conduct of parolees. However, no system of supervision existed. In 1913, the addition of an indeterminate sentence law increased the use of parole and gave the Governor the sole power to grant paroles. The Board of Prison Commissioners still established rules and regulations under which prisoners could be paroled, but such rules and regulations had to be approved by the Governor.

Adams Pardon Attorney before the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate Good morning, Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee: I am here today at the Committee's request to provide information about how my office, the Office of the Pardon Attorney, normally handles clemency petitions, and to describe the procedures we followed with regard to President Clinton's grants of pardon to individuals, including Marc Rich and Pincus Green, on January 20, 2001. A pardon request is typically processed in the following manner. The pardon applicant files his clemency petition, addressed to the President, with the Office of the Pardon Attorney. He is free to utilize the services of an attorney or to act on his own behalf in seeking pardon. The standard form utilized for this process requests information about the offense, the petitioner's other criminal record, his employment and residence history since the conviction and other biographical information, and his reasons for seeking pardon. The application must be signed and notarized, and the applicant must also submit three notarized affidavits from character references who are unrelated to him, know of his conviction, and support his pardon request. When my office receives a pardon petition, it is screened to ensure that the applicant is in fact eligible to seek a pardon ( i.e

Nevada Executive Branch Agencies Pardon/Parole and Probation, Department/Board of Administrative History The functions of pardon, parole and probation for remitting any judgment, fine, or forfeiture, as well as commutation of the death penalty evolved through various offices of the State of Nevada. Under the Territory, in 1862, applications for pardons were made to the governor of the Territory. In 1879 the Board of State Prison Commissioners was authorized "...to select a commission, two from the Senate and three from the House, who shall visit the State Prison and consult the warden, and ascertain if there are any prisoners, that, by reason of long confinement, or good conduct, or other circumstances, should in their opinion be pardoned...." The Commission was to file the report with the Secretary of the Board of Pardons, to be presented to the Board at its next regular meeting. In 1887 the Board of Pardons consisted of the Governor, the Justices of the Supreme Court, the Attorney General, and the Clerk of the Board. A 1931 Statute created the Board of Pardons and Parole Commissioners; amendments in 1943 and 1945 created the State Board of Parole Commissioners, and defined its powers and duties.
