P.R. Laws tit. 34, § 1027a
The trial court, in all cases in which it directs that the person who is sentenced is to be released on probation, shall impose and state in writing, as part of the condition of probation, the commitment of the parolee not to engage in criminal conduct nor relate to persons known for their participation in illegal activities, while he is enjoying the benefits granted by §§ 1026—1029 of this title.
As a condition for probation, the person sentenced shall have satisfied the special penalty to the Victim’s Fund provided in the Penal Code of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, shall consent to submit to a regular program for the detection of controlled substances through reliable tests that allow for his/her orientation, treatment and rehabilitation, to the taking of a sample for DNA analysis, if required by law, and shall also register his/her name, address and other personal information in the Registry of Persons Convicted for Violent Sexual Crimes and Child Abuse created by law in the Criminal Justice Information System or in the Registry of Persons Convicted for Corruption when convicted for a crime of those listed therein.
The sentenced person shall consent, besides, to have his[/her] probation revoked in absentia in cases where said person has left the jurisdiction or domicile thereof is unknown for having moved without informing the probation officer.
Furthermore, the person on probation, as a condition therefor, shall consent, if accused of committing a felony, to having the initial summary hearing provided by § 1029 of this title held jointly with the hearing to determine probable cause. The determination of probable cause for the commission of a new crime is sufficient cause to provisionally revoke the benefits of probation at that time.
