HB54

Provides relative to alternative conditions for violations of parole (EN SEE FISC NOTE GF EX)

Final Passage·5/28/26

Louisiana HB54 amends parole conditions to allow placement in treatment programs instead of revocation.

Louisiana HB54 modifies the conditions for parole violations, allowing the parolee to be placed in a community rehabilitation center, substance abuse treatment program, mental health treatment program, or certified treatment and rehabilitation program for up to one year instead of revoking parole. This change extends the maximum commitment period from six months to one year and ensures that such commitment does not extend the period of parole beyond the full parole term.
