HD 3330 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act concerning the arrest without a warrant of persons on probation and temporary custody

This bill (HD 3330) allows probation officers to arrest individuals on probation without a court warrant if they violate probation conditions. It directly affects probationers and probation officers, expanding the latter's authority to handle violations. Key provisions require probation officers to notify district attorneys and allow them to present evidence at hearings if the violation involves a felony. The bill also outlines procedures for inmates in correctional facilities to apply for court review of probation violations, including specific documentation they must provide. These changes streamline how probation violations are processed while adding safeguards for felony-related cases.
