Parole and recall proceedings, extended supervision orders, public protection orders

Proceedings before the New Zealand Parole Board may affect whether a person is released from prison, remains in the community or is recalled to custody.

Legal advice can help identify the information the Board will need and ensure that the person’s position is clearly and properly presented.

Parole work may include

• preparation for a parole hearing;
• applications for release on parole;
• advice about release plans;
• monitoring hearings;
• recall applications;
• representation where recall to prison is sought; and
• advice concerning parole conditions.
