    what happens when you violate probation/parole in the State of New Jersey?
    My fiancé was arrested for selling drugs,and served all his time in a county jail.After he was released he was put on probation. Instead of staying in New Jersey to start his probation he left to Pennsylvania and has been there for almost two years. While he was going to work one morning he was pulled over for a random check. The police officer found that he did not have a license,then ran his name and found that he had a warrant from New Jersey. They gave him a ticket for driving without a license, but he is waiting to be (sorry if spelling is incorrect) extradited to New Jersey. I was told that due to the statue of limitations the state of Pennsylvania can only hold him for so many days,and if New Jersey didn't show within those days they would have to release him. Is that true?

    It has nothing to do with statue of limitation, but one state may only hold a person a certain time frame without a hearing, But on the scene the officer checks with the other state to see if they will come after them.

    He will be sent back to NJ where he will serve the rest of his probation time in prison most likely

    Not necessarily Fr Chuck! That is a minor offense that that person violated probation on. Most likely he will have to pay a fine and he could get that expunged. That kind of violation is not a big deal. I mean it's not like he violated by robbing a bank

    Hello mary:
    That is a minor offense that that person violated probation on.
    What you say is true, but absconding from justice is NOT minor at all, and THAT'S the crime Pennsylvania will look at. At this point, so will NJ.

    When he gets BACK to the sentencing court, then, and ONLY then will his original charges and sentence be reviewed.
