Analysis by the 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.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
