In this paper, we investigate the compactness theory of the complex Green operator on smooth, embedded, orientable CR manifolds of hypersurface type that satisfy the weak $ Y(q) $ condition. The sufficient condition that we define is an adaption of the CR-$ P_q $ property for weak $ Y(q) $ manifolds and does not require that the CR manifold is the boundary of a domain.

We also provide several non-pseudoconvex examples (and a level $ q $) for which the complex Green operator is compact.

Keywords: Weak $ Z(q) $, weak $ Y(q) $, tangential Cauchy-Riemann operator, $ \bar\partial_b $, closed range, microlocal analysis, complex Green operator, compactness, compact operator.
