UCMJ Article 107a: Violation Of Parole
At Bilecki Law Group, we believe every service member has earned their right to an aggressive defense on their day in court. We specialize in taking the fight to the prosecution and winning cases that others said were unwinnable.
You have spent months or even years serving your time for a past offense and earned your right to parole. But a single violation—however slight—to the conditions of that parole, could see you back behind bars—this time to serve out your full sentence in addition to the charges you face under Article 107a of the UCMJ. The military’s justice system is incredibly harsh to parole violators and rarely allows a parolee the opportunity to tell his or her side of the story. Without an experienced US military defense attorney to take up your case, you could quickly find yourself in a position that is worse than it was before.
- You may have avoided the loss of your military career for one offense, only to have it destroyed by violating a condition of your parole.
- You stand to lose an additional two-thirds pay for up to six months if convicted of a parole violation, which could put an even more financial strain on you and your family.
- What you imaged would be your final day of confinement could turn into months or even years longer—this time without the possibility of parole.
Could a parole violation steal your freedom a second time? Do not take the risk. Contact Bilecki Law Group and start fighting back TODAY.
What Is Article 107a (Violation of Parole) of the UCMJ?
All of the articles of the UCMJ requires prosecutors to prove beyond a reasonable doubt a handful of critical assumptions—known as elements—to convict you of a crime. For an american soldier to be in violation of his or her parole and convicted underArticle 107a, the following five elements must be proven:
- That the accused was a prisoner as the result of a court-martial conviction or other criminal proceeding;
- That the accused was on parole;
- That there were certain conditions of parole that the parolee was bound to obey;
- That the accused violated the conditions of parole by doing an act or
- That, under the circumstances, the conduct of the accused was to the prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces or was of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces.
Summary of the Elements of Article 107a (Violation of Parole): A conviction requires prosecutors to prove that the accused was currently on parole after serving time for another offense and that, while on said parole, he or she failed to adhere to its conditions, whether through action or inaction.
