Q: I have absconded from parole in NJ max date of 03-2024 not caught any other charges, can they keep me past my max date?
A:
When a person absconds from parole, it could lead to legal consequences. In Maryland, as in other states, absconding from parole may result in a parole violation. The specific consequences can vary depending on the terms of your parole, the policies of the parole board, and the laws in your state.
In some cases, if you abscond from parole, you might be subject to additional penalties or an extension of your parole term. The decision to keep you in custody past your maximum release date could depend on various factors, including the reasons for your absconding, any potential new charges, your behavior during parole, and the parole board's discretion.
