                        STATE PRISON AND COUNTY JAILS

                          STATE BOARD OF CORRECTIONS
    20-228.  CONDITIONS OF PAROLE TO BE SPECIFIED IN WRITING -- WARRANT FOR
ARREST OF SUSPECTED VIOLATORS -- EFFECT OF SUSPENSION AND ARREST. The
commission for pardons and parole, in releasing a person on parole, shall
specify in writing the conditions of parole, and a copy of such conditions
shall be given to the person paroled. Whenever the commission finds that a
parolee may have violated the conditions of parole, the written order of the
commission, signed by a member or members of the commission or the executive
director, shall be sufficient warrant for any law enforcement officer to take
into custody such person, and it is hereby made the duty of all sheriffs,
police, constables, parole and probation officers, prison officials and other
peace officers, to execute such order. Such warrant shall serve to suspend the
person's parole until a determination on the merits of the allegations of the
violation has been made pursuant to a revocation hearing. From and after the
issuance of the warrant and suspension of the parole of any convicted person
and until arrest, the parolee shall be considered a fugitive from justice.
Such person so recommitted must serve out the sentence, and the time during
which such prisoner was out on parole shall not be deemed a part thereof;
unless the commission, in its discretion, shall determine otherwise, but
nothing herein contained shall prevent the commission from again paroling such
prisoners at its discretion.
