This would be a technical violation. This type of violation happens to those on probation or parole when the offender who is under supervision misbehaves. It may not necessarily be a criminal offence and generally does not result in the offender being arrested. This could be as simple as failing to report for a scheduled visit or the use of alcohol and drugs. More serious technical violations like repeated failure to report or violent crimes as well as patterns of bad behavior can eventually lead to the offender returning to prison.
