Recall to Prison

Representation following recall on licence.

The Issue

A prisoner released on licence may be recalled to custody for alleged breach of licence conditions. The recall process involves a review by the Parole Board and, in many cases, the right to an oral hearing. Effective representation addresses the reasons for recall, the evidence of breach, and the prisoner's circumstances, with the aim of securing re-release where appropriate.

How We Help

There are a range of complex representations which we routinely deploy in such cases, including:

Submissions and representation at recall reviews before the Parole Board

Challenges to the necessity and proportionality of recall

Addressing alleged licence breaches and presenting mitigating evidence

Applications for release on changed or strengthened licence conditions
