No. If the parolee commits an act that the parole officer feels is in violation of the terms of parole, the officer can approach the court and submit the facts, but ultimately, it will be up to a judge to revoke or extend someone's parole.

A PROBATION OFFICER IS AN OFFICER TO AND OF THE COURTS.
ONLY A JUDGE CAN EXTEND SOMEONES PAROLE UPON NON COMPLIANCE, NON PERFORMANCE OR A PAROLE OFFICERS REQUEST TO THE COURT GIVING A DETAILED RATIONAL OF WHY THIS CASE SHOULD BE EXTENDED.
IT IS UP TO THE JUDGE TO EXTEND OR DENY THE REQUEST.

If you violate parole, of course! But you'll probably go back to jail. Why don't you try getting off early for good behavior?? Even if you don't get off early you won't have to worry about having it extended ;)

If the person on parole breaks the law, then yes. But then it's really the parolee that's extending his own parole length.

give me a break....ask yourself this-who was the one who gives one parole?answer- a judge.so no,a parole officer does not extend parole.he has no authority to change a judges order.you break parole and you go back to jail/court and they either revoke it or levae it as is or modify a little thing called a court order
