Modifies the standard of evidence and certain other procedures when determining whether to revoke the community supervision of a person.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the standard of evidence and certain other procedures when determining whether to revoke the community supervision of a person. Specifically, it:
- Defines key terms like "releasee," "technical violation," "non-technical violation," and "absconding."
- Adds provisions for earned time credits, including retroactive credits, that can be applied to reduce the unserved portion of a person's maximum term or period of post-release supervision.
- Modifies the standards and procedures for preliminary and final revocation hearings, including requiring hearings to be held in courthouses rather than correctional facilities and establishing a preponderance of the evidence standard for preliminary hearings and a clear and convincing evidence standard for final hearings.
- Limits the use of incarceration as a sanction for technical violations, with caps on the amount of time that can be imposed.
- Allows for appeals of non-technical violation findings to be made to the courts, with the court able to consider the issues de novo.
- Requires the parole board to promulgate rules to facilitate the presence of nonprofit service providers at revocation hearings to help supervisees succeed.
