Texas Parole Lawyer Walker Fults
If you have a loved one in prison, your goal is to get him or her released on parole as soon as possible. Many people feel beaten down after a contentious court case that resulted in prison time. But there is hope. Unlike the federal prison system, Texas prisons are overcrowded and the State routinely releases inmates on parole well before their time has fully run. With a persuasive parole packet prepared by Texas Parole Lawyer Walker Fults, your loved one has the best chance to get out of prison early.
The Parole Packet Process
If your loved one is in prison, his or her chances of release are maximized when assisted by an experienced parole lawyer. Upon hiring Walker Fults, you will be assisted with every step of the process. The parole lawyer has to prepare certain required legal paperwork, such as a prison system promulgated form called a fee affidavit form. In addition, the parole lawyer will prepare a letter arguing for release, based upon the context and mitigating circumstances of the case and life of the applicant. As family, you will be able to write a letter in support. Each letter should include a specific exit plan, which is the detailed plan for where the inmate will live, work, and succeed on parole after being released from prison. As a final point of advocacy, it is effective to schedule a phone call with the lead voter assigned to the parole applicant’s case. Parole Lawyer Walker Fults discusses the case first, and then you will have a chance to talk about your loved one and how you will be able to support him or her upon release.
Parole Revocation Hearings
If you are already out of prison on parole and catch a new charge or receive a technical violation, you may face a parole revocation hearing. If revoked, you can be sent back to prison to serve a remainder of your underlying prison sentence. An experienced parole lawyer can assist by interfacing with parole, handling a parole violation as well as the new case, and proving counsel at the parole revocation hearing. With a parole lawyer, your best argument for being continued on parole will be advanced.
Is it Possible to Parole Out on a Blue Warrant?
A blue warrant, or a warrant for a parole violation, is a hold issued by the parole system to keep a person in county jail pending the resolution of an alleged parole violation. Until recently, it has not been possible to bond out until the alleged violation was resolved. With a new change in the law, however, it is possible to bond out on a parole violation if the following conditions can be shown:
- you are already in jail
- there is no new offense charged
- you have no past convictions for robbery, aggravated robbery, homicide, kidnapping, trafficking, or assault; and
- the judge finds you are not a threat to public safety.
How Do I Get Information on My Loved One’s Parole Eligibility?
If you need help finding information about your loved one’s case, you can do a search on the State’s website. Your loved one’s current facility, projected release date, offense history, and parole review information are all available. Keep in mind that all dates are rough time windows, not deadlines. Technically, the prison system has the right to keep an inmate for the entire prison term and the discretion to release him or her early under its sole authority.
