Q: When reliced from prison am I required to abide by the policies that were in effect when I was sentenced or the changed?
Parole was 3 years when I went in and no supervision fee, now its longer and supervision fees
A: You are subject to the rules in place when you get out of prison or parole. If your JOC did not mention supervision fees, you should ask your Parole Officer if you have to pay fees now. If you disagree with what he/she tells you then you may contact the Court and look at your Judgment of Conviction to see if it contains a provision for supervised release but no fees. It would be unusual but possible. If you are unable to pay supervision fees you may ask the Court to waive the fees for a period of time or permanently.
