Bill Summary
An Act amending Titles 42 (Judiciary and Judicial Procedure) and 61 (Prisons and Parole) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statues, in sentencing, further providing for conditions of probation and for modification or revocation of order of probation.
AI Summary
This bill amends Pennsylvania's Judiciary and Judicial Procedure laws to further regulate probation conditions and the modification or revocation of probation orders. Key provisions include: allowing the court to consider a defendant's child care responsibilities when setting probation conditions; limiting the court's ability to revoke probation solely for nonpayment of fines or costs; establishing specific criteria for when the court can impose a sentence of total confinement upon probation revocation; creating a mandatory probation review conference process with opportunities for early termination of probation; and applying these changes retroactively to individuals sentenced or resentenced prior to the effective date of the bill.
