What Are Parole Violation Bail Bonds?
Parole violation bail bonds are surety bonds posted on the new criminal charges that often come with a parole violation in Connecticut. The parole violation itself is handled by the Board of Pardons and Paroles, and a person remanded to custody for a parole violation generally has no right to bail. A bondsman can post bail on the new charges so they do not keep the person in jail once the parole hold is resolved.
Many families call expecting a bondsman to post bail on the parole violation itself, and they deserve an honest answer. Easy Bail Bonds LLC explains exactly where your loved one stands, posts parole violation bail bonds on any bailable charges, and helps you prepare for the parole hearing process.
Parole vs. Probation in Connecticut
Parole and probation are often confused, but they work very differently. Parole is an early release from prison granted by the Connecticut Board of Pardons and Paroles, and a person on parole is still serving their prison sentence in the community. Probation is ordered by a judge, and violations go back to court, where bail is normally available. If your loved one is on probation, see our probation violation bail bonds page instead.
Types of Parole Violations
Parole violations generally fall into a few categories, and each affects what happens next:
Technical Violation
Breaking a condition, not a new crime
Missing a meeting with a parole officer, failing a drug test, missing curfew, leaving an approved residence or violating another condition of parole.
New Arrest (Criminal Violation)
A new criminal charge
Being arrested for a new crime while on parole. The new charge has its own bail in court, and the parole officer may also remand the person for the violation.
Absconding
Losing contact with parole
Leaving supervision without permission or failing to report so that the parole officer cannot locate the person. This usually leads to a warrant.
Special Parole Violation
Court-ordered parole after a sentence
Special parole is imposed by a judge at sentencing and supervised by the Board. Violations are handled through the Board’s process.
What Happens After a Parole Violation
When a parole officer believes a violation happened, the person can be returned to custody on a remand order or a warrant for reimprisonment issued by the Board. Under Connecticut parole regulations, a person remanded for a parole violation has no right to bail and may be held until the Board decides the case. The person should receive a written notice of the alleged violation within a few business days and has the right to a hearing. The Board can continue parole, change the conditions or revoke parole and return the person to prison.
When Parole Violation Bail Bonds Can Help
Even though the parole hold itself is not bailable, posting parole violation bail bonds on new charges still matters:
- New charges are bailable. A new arrest has its own bail set by police or a judge.
- No second hold. Once the bail is posted, the new case alone will not keep the person in jail.
- Faster release later. If the Board lifts the hold or continues parole, release can happen without waiting to post bail.
- Better standing. Showing the new case is handled responsibly can matter to the people deciding the parole case.
How Bail Is Set on New Charges
For the new criminal case, police and judges weigh the same factors as any arrest, along with the person’s parole status:
- The seriousness of the new charge
- The person’s criminal history and current sentence
- Past compliance with parole and court dates
- Any risk to victims or the community
- Employment, housing and family ties
- Risk of missing future court dates
How Much Do Parole Violation Bail Bonds Cost?
The premium for parole violation bail bonds on new charges follows state-approved rates overseen by the Connecticut Insurance Department: up to 10% of the first $5,000 of the bond and up to 7% of the amount above $5,000. Examples:
$5,000 bond
10% of the full bond
$20,000 bond
$500 + 7% of $15,000
$75,000 bond
$500 + 7% of $70,000
The premium is non-refundable. Because the person is under parole supervision, larger bonds may require collateral or an additional co-signer, which we explain before anything is signed.
