Thierry (HB 681) Act No. 633
For purposes of imposition of administrative sanctions and probation violations, prior law
defined "technical violation" as any violation except that it shall not include being arrested,
charged, or convicted of any violation of the Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances
Law.
New law amends the definition of "technical violation" to include a violation of
misdemeanor possession of marijuana or tetrahydrocanna binol, or chemical derivatives
thereof.
