    What is the difference between being on probation and being on parole?

    Question #57989. Asked by barker111. (Jun 27 05 11:58 AM)

    		"Parole" refers to the early release of a prisoner on condition that he or she will observe certain requirements of behavior and be monitored in order to ensure compliance.

    "Probation" is a sentence imposed in lieu of jailtime, again on condition that the probationer obey certain rules and regularly report to a monitor.
