What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, if a person not serving a life sentence is released to extended

supervision and violates a condition of extended supervision, the person's release

may be revoked. If the person's release is revoked, the person must return to prison

for a period that does not exceed the time remaining on the bifurcated sentence.

Under this bill, if a person released to extended supervision violates a condition of

extended supervision and the violation is not a crime and the person did not abscond,

the person must return to prison for a period not to exceed 90 days if the person is

not required to register with the Department of Corrections (DOC) as a sex offender.

Under current law, if a person on probation violates a condition of probation,

the person's probation may be revoked. If the person's probation is revoked, the

person is ordered to prison for a length of time imposed by the sentencing court.

Under this bill, if a person on probation violates a condition of probation and the

violation is not a crime and the person did not abscond, the person must be ordered

to prison for a period not to exceed 90 days if the person is not required to register

with the DOC as a sex offender.
