2003 SESSION
HB 2424 Postrelease supervision of felons.
Introduced by: William R. Janis | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Postrelease supervision of felons. Removes apparently redundant sentences restating minimum and maximum periods of postrelease supervision applicable to those inmates not eligible for parole and returns to language similar to that which appeared in the section prior to the 2000 amendments. Currently, the judge is required to impose a term of postrelease supervision, suspend it and impose virtually the same term. This amendment clarifies that the judge would impose a term of confinement, suspend that and impose, instead, a term of postrelease supervision.
