This paper aims to show one the many ways of the Francoist repression: the so-called libertad vigilada, probation. This concept refers to the release of convicts before the order has been completed. The methodology used has been tracking the case and its regulations through consulting primary sources, contrasting them with the very little historiography production. A lot of the information has been found in smaller files in the Valencian Country. This means that the historical debate has not had further contributions. The phenomenon of this type of probation was only applied for political reasons. Due to their great number, a concrete legislation and new organisms dedicated just for their surveillance were created. Although being released, they were still considered convicted. The reasons of these realeases were the immense number of people derived from the Francois repression.
