Standard Conditions of Probation and Supervised Release in all Criminal Cases

In addition to the Standard Conditions of Supervised Release and Probation promulgated by the Administrative Office of the United States Courts (National Form AO 245B), the following six conditions are forthwith adopted as standard conditions of probation and supervised release for all defendants sentenced in criminal cases in the District.

  1. If the offender is unemployed, the probation officer may direct the offender to register and remain active with Workforce West Virginia.
  2. Offenders shall submit to random urinalysis or any drug screening method whenever the same is deemed appropriate by the probation officer and shall participate in a substance abuse program as directed by the probation officer. Offenders shall not use any method or device to evade a drug screen.
  3. As directed by the probation officer, the defendant will make co-payments for drug testing and drug treatment services at rates determined by the probation officer in accordance with a court-approved schedule based on ability to pay and availability of third-party payments.
  4. A term of community service is imposed on every offender on supervised release or probation. Fifty hours of community service is imposed on every offender for each year the offender is on supervised release or probation. The obligation for community service is waived if the offender remains fully employed or actively seeks such employment throughout the year.
  5. The defendant shall not possess a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or any other dangerous weapon (i.e., anything that was designed, or was modified for, the specific purpose of causing bodily injury or death to another person such as nunchakus or tasers), and shall reside in a residence free from such items.
  6. The defendant shall not purchase, possess, or consume any organic or synthetic intoxicants, including bath salts, synthetic cannabinoids, or other designer stimulants.
