N.Y. Executive Law § 259-o: Interstate hearings for parole violations

§ 259-o. Interstate hearings for parole violations. 1. For the

purposes of this section, "preliminary violation hearing" means a

hearing to determine whether there are reasonable grounds to believe

that a person released on parole has violated the conditions of his

parole.

2. Whenever there is reasonable cause to believe that a person

released on parole in another state but under the parole supervision of

this state pursuant to section two hundred fifty-nine-m of this article

has violated the conditions thereof, a member or designee of the board

of parole, upon request of the sending state, may conduct a preliminary

violation hearing unless such hearing is waived by the parolee.

3. Whenever there is reasonable cause to believe that a person

released on parole in this state but under the parole supervision of

another state pursuant to section two hundred fifty-nine-m of this

article has violated the conditions thereof, any person duly authorized

in such other state to conduct preliminary violation hearings, upon

request of the chairman of the board of parole, may conduct such

hearing, unless such hearing is waived by the parolee. The preliminary

violation hearing and the determinations made thereat shall have the

same force and effect as preliminary violation hearing conducted in this

state by the board of parole or a member, hearing officer or panel

thereof.

4. Whenever a preliminary violation hearing is conducted in another

state pursuant to this section, the alleged violator must be afforded a

final hearing within ninety days from the date of his return to this

state.
