What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
I have been on parole for a nonviolent, non-drug related offense for one year. I have had no violations. I have stable employment, stable housing, own a car, and comply with all parole requirements. My current employer, a franchisee and former director of franchisee training for a large corporation, has recommended me for a position as a corporate trainer with corporate headquarters. The position would require significant interstate travel within the southeastern United States (approximately 2 weeks per trip), some of the work would be in this state. I would expect to travel 60-80% of the time.
I have spoken with my parole officer and he was very discouraging. He said it would not be approved because there is no way to supervise me if I am out of state that frequently.
Georgia has non-reporting parole as an option, but it doesn't seem to be used much, if at all. There may be other options, but I do not know all of the terminology that is used. Basically, I understand that there are ways to have parole terminated early.
I will also be on probation beginning in September 2011. I understand I would have to get their approval to continue to travel for work. But, I was told it should be fairly easy to gain approval while on probation if I have already received approval while on parole.
My question is: How do I go about gaining approval for significant, employment related travel? How do I get early parole release or non-reporting parole? Is any of this feasible?
I cannot continue my current work for much longer due to physical limitations. I am required to be on my feet for 8-12 hours per day and have severe foot problems that are exacerbated by my work and may require surgery. If I continue my work it could lead to permanent, irreversible, and debilitating damage.
