AI Summary
This bill makes several changes related to parole and probation processes. It mandates that all commissioners of the Board of Parole Hearings must participate in an "en banc review," which is a review conducted by all commissioners holding office, and that the decisions and individual votes from these reviews must be made public records, prohibiting them from being held in closed sessions. Additionally, the bill allows courts to extend probation terms for up to 18 months for defendants participating in collaborative justice court programs, which are specialized court programs designed to address specific issues like substance abuse or mental health.
