Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the correction law, in relation to preserving records of certain violations in correctional facilities

AI Summary

This bill directs the commissioner of corrections and community supervision to create and implement a new system for preserving data specifically related to tier one violations in correctional facilities. Tier one violations are typically considered minor infractions within correctional institutions. The bill requires that this data be maintained separately from an individual's main institutional record, and importantly, the preservation of this data will not prevent correctional facilities from removing tier one violations from an inmate's personal record. The purpose appears to be creating a centralized tracking mechanism for minor infractions while ensuring that such records do not permanently stigmatize individual inmates. The bill would amend the existing correction law by adding a new subdivision to Section 112, and it is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
