| Pretrial Services Supervision:
Pretrial services officers perform activities to monitor
a defendant's compliance with the conditions of release
set by the court. The activities are designed by the case
officer to manage risk as it relates to appearance and
community safety, and to provide assistance to defendants
upon request (e.g., social service referrals).
Supervision activities include but are not limited to
office and field contacts with the defendant; collateral
contacts with employers, law enforcement agencies and
friends and/or relatives of the defendant; placement
in substance and/or mental health treatment facilities. |
