Motion To Revoke Probation In Texas

Felony arrests were down this week leading up to Thanksgiving. Perhaps crime is taking a day off to make sure they get to spend the holiday feasting with their family.

Many of the arrestees this week were MTRPs, which stands for Motion To Revoke Probation. This is legal action taken by the parole officer or parole board that occurs when someone is violating the terms of their parole.

In Texas ex-convicts are held to a high standard and they have to follow lots of rules to remain free. Getting an MTRP in Texas could mean that the felon performed one of the following actions according to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

  • Committing a new crime on parole
  • Failing to meet with your parole officer
  • Failing a mandatory drug test
  • Failing to pay fines or court costs
  • Breaking curfew
  • Failing to complete mandatory community service
  • Failing to maintain adequate employment
