Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Morrissey v. Brewer provides procedural safeguards for parolees at revocation hearings, which are held to determine whether a parolee has violated the terms of their parole and whether their parole should be revoked. The case held that parolees have the right to be notified of the charges against them, to confront and cross-examine witnesses, and to have a neutral decision-maker evaluate the evidence presented. These safeguards were established to ensure that parolees are not subject to arbitrary or capricious revocation of their parole.
