N.M. Admin. Code § 8.14.7.13 - VIOLATIONS OF SUPERVISED RELEASE CONDITIONS

The JPO informs the panel when a juvenile is alleged to have violated any general or special conditions of supervised release. The JPO and a designated departmental representative of the panel confer regarding the appropriate course of action in each circumstance. Supervised release shall only be revoked and the juvenile placed in detention if it is necessary to protect the public safety, prevent self-injury, facilitate transfer, or ensure the presence of the juvenile at subsequent court hearings.

A. After consultation, there may be a decision to allow the juvenile to continue on supervised release. The JPO's monthly report to the panel will document the justification for the decision to continue supervised release.

B. The panel may issue a reprimand for any supervised release violation, upon recommendation of the department or upon its own initiative when appropriate. The reprimand may be oral or written. Reprimands may be issued during a supervised release revocation proceeding if the panel has decided, after a preliminary supervised release violation inquiry or final supervised release violation hearing, not to revoke supervised release.

C. The panel may modify the release agreement to address less serious violations for which supervised release revocation proceedings are not immediately appropriate.

D. If after consulting with the panel, there is a decision to begin revocation proceedings against the juvenile, a preliminary supervised release violation report is prepared.
