Re: to be notified by vickers letter to appear

As I recall the Vicker's letter is notice that you are alleged to have violated probation. That you are given a court date to appear and either admit the violation or deny it and request a hearing. In the case of a probation violation the hearing is before a judge, who determines from the facts whether or not the violation occurred.

There is a similar procedure when an individual is alleged to have violated the conditions of parole. There as I understand there is a parole board hearing.
