304.072 Annotation
Sub. (3) applies to all parole violations that occur before the offender's date of discharge from his or her entire sentence. The Department of Corrections had jurisdiction to revoke a second period of parole for a violation that the defendant committed during his first, and later revoked, period of parole when the violation was not discovered until the second parole period. DOC v. Schwarz,
2005 WI 34,
279 Wis. 2d 223,
693 N.W.2d 703,
03-2001 304.072 Annotation
An offender who has had extended supervision revoked is entitled to sentence credit on any new charges until the trial court resentences him or her for the available remaining term of extended supervision. A reconfinement hearing is a sentencing, and the revocation is not. The defendant was entitled to sentence credit on the new charge from the date of his arrest until the day of sentencing on both charges because while his extended supervision was revoked, his resentencing had not yet occurred. State v. Presley,
2006 WI App 82,
292 Wis. 2d 734,
715 N.W.2d 713,

304.072 Annotation
A term of supervision under sub. (3) includes the nonconfinement and confinement time arising from the same sentencing decision. With regard to identifying a term of supervision, probation, incarceration, and extended supervision are each a component of the sentence. A person who initially serves a term of probation that is ultimately revoked, and following revocation serves a bifurcated prison term, can be revoked from that prison term's extended supervision component on the basis of a rules violation that occurred during the initial term of probation. McElvaney v. Schwarz,
2008 WI App 102,
313 Wis. 2d 125,
756 N.W.2d 441,

304.072 Annotation
The “sentence" to which sub. (4) refers is the sentence that was issued by the circuit court subsequent to conviction. Sub. (4) looks back at a sentence earlier commenced. In this case, when the defendant's parole was revoked, the indeterminate sentence for the defendant's felony conviction caused reincarceration. The reincarceration order did not establish reincarceration as a new sentence. Rather, it was a continuation of the sentence meted out by the circuit court judge. Therefore, if the defendant had not received all the sentence credit that was available to apply to the felony sentence when that sentence was imposed, he could have received it when his parole was revoked. State v. Obriecht,
2015 WI 66,
363 Wis. 2d 816,
867 N.W.2d 387,
13-1345.
304.072 Annotation
The plain language of sub. (5) applies only under the terms of s. 973.155. In turn, s. 973.155 (1) (a) permits sentence credit only when confinement is factually in connection with the course of conduct for which the sentence was imposed. State v. Lira,

Reimbursement fee for persons on probation, parole, and extended supervision. 304.074(2)(2)
The department shall charge a reasonable fee as determined by the department to probationers, parolees, and persons on extended supervision to partially reimburse the department for the costs of providing supervision and services and, as provided under s.
302.33 (2) (a) 3., to reimburse counties and tribal governing bodies. Subject to sub.
(3m), the department shall collect moneys for the fees charged under this subsection and credit those moneys to the appropriation account under s.
20.410 (1) (gf).
304.074(3)
(3) The department may decide to waive for a period a fee under sub.
(2) for reasons established under department policy, including if the person is unemployed, has a health issue or is disabled, or is participating in education or treatment-related programming.
304.074(3m)
(3m) The department may not collect a fee charged under this section until all restitution payments due pursuant to any order under s.
973.20 from the probationer, parolee, or person on extended supervision have been paid.
304.074(4m)(a)(a) If a probationer, parolee or person on extended supervision who owes unpaid fees to the department under sub.
(2) is discharged from probation or from his or her sentence before the department collects the unpaid fees, the department shall, at the time of discharge, issue a notice to the probationer, parolee or person on extended supervision that states that he or she owes unpaid fees under sub.
(2) and that he or she is responsible for the payment of the unpaid fees. The notice under this paragraph shall be issued with the certificate of discharge required under s.
304.078 or
973.09 (5).
304.074(4m)(b)
(b) The department may request the attorney general to bring a civil action to recover unpaid fees owed to the department under sub.
(2) by a person who has been discharged from probation or from his or her sentence and who, at the time of discharge, owed the department unpaid fees under sub.
(2). Before requesting the attorney general to bring a civil action under this paragraph, the department shall deduct any fees owed to the department that were inaccurately assessed against the person.
304.074(5)
(5) The department shall promulgate rules providing the procedure and timing for collecting fees charged under sub.
(2).
304.074 AnnotationArticle I, section 9m, of the Wisconsin Constitution provides for restitution only insofar as the legislature confers such rights through statute. The legislature makes restitution available to crime victims under s. 973.20 and other statutes, but crime victims are not guaranteed restitution in every instance. Section 973.20 (12) (b) makes clear that restitution payments take priority over specific statutory fees, surcharges, fines, and costs, but the priority scheme does not include supervision fees under this section.

Restoration of civil rights of convicted persons. 304.078(1)(a)
(a) “Imprisonment" includes parole and extended supervision.
304.078(2)
(2) Except as provided in sub.
(3), every person who is convicted of a crime obtains a restoration of his or her civil rights by serving out his or her term of imprisonment or otherwise satisfying his or her sentence. The certificate of the department or other responsible supervising agency that a convicted person has served his or her sentence or otherwise satisfied the judgment against him or her is evidence of that fact and that the person is restored to his or her civil rights. The department or other agency shall list in the person's certificate rights which have been restored and which have not been restored. Persons who served out their terms of imprisonment or otherwise satisfied their sentences prior to August 14, 1947, are likewise restored to their civil rights from and after September 25, 1959.
304.078(3)
(3) If a person is disqualified from voting under s.
6.03 (1) (b), his or her right to vote is restored when he or she completes the term of imprisonment or probation for the crime that led to the disqualification. The department or, if the person is sentenced to a county jail or house of correction, the jailer shall inform the person in writing at the time his or her right to vote is restored under this subsection.

Uniform act for out-of-state parolee supervision; state compacts. 304.13(1m)(1m)
The governor of this state is authorized and directed to enter into a compact on behalf of this state with any state of the United States legally joining therein in the form substantially as follows:
A COMPACT.
Entered into by and among the contracting states, signatories hereto, with the consent of the congress of the United States of America, granted by an act entitled “An act granting the consent of congress to any two or more states to enter into agreements or compacts for cooperative effort and mutual assistance in the prevention of crime and for other purposes".
The contracting states solemnly agree:
304.13(1m)(a)
(a) That it shall be competent for the duly constituted judicial and administrative authorities of a sending state to permit any person convicted of an offense within the sending state and placed on probation or released on extended supervision or parole to reside in any receiving state while on probation, extended supervision or parole, if:
304.13(1m)(a)1.
1. Such person is in fact a resident of or has family residing within the receiving state and can obtain employment there; or
304.13(1m)(a)2.
2. Though not a resident of the receiving state and not having family residing there, the receiving state consents to such person being sent there.
304.13(1m)(a)3.
3. Before granting such permission, opportunity shall be granted to the receiving state to investigate the home and prospective employment of such person.
304.13(1m)(a)4.
4. A resident of the receiving state, within the meaning of this subsection, is one who has been an actual inhabitant of such state continuously for more than one year prior to coming to the sending state and has not resided within the sending state more than 6 continuous months immediately preceding the commission of the offense for which that person has been convicted.
304.13(1m)(b)
(b) That each receiving state will assume the duties of visitation of and supervision over probationers, persons on extended supervision or parolees of any sending state and in the exercise of those duties will be governed by the same standards that prevail for its own probationers, persons on extended supervision and parolees.
304.13(1m)(c)
(c) That the duly accredited officers of a sending state may at all times enter a receiving state and there apprehend and retake any person on probation, extended supervision or parole. For that purpose no formalities will be required other than establishing the authority of the officer and the identity of the person to be retaken. All legal requirements to obtain extradition of fugitives from justice are expressly waived on the part of states party hereto, as to such persons. The decision of the sending state to retake a person on probation, extended supervision or parole shall be conclusive upon and not reviewable within the receiving state; provided, however, that if at the time when a state seeks to retake a probationer, person on extended supervision or parolee there should be pending against that person within the receiving state any criminal charge, or that person should be suspected of having committed within such state a criminal offense, that person shall not be retaken without the consent of the receiving state until discharged from prosecution or from imprisonment for such offense.
304.13(1m)(d)
(d) That the duly accredited officers of the sending state will be permitted to transport prisoners being retaken through any and all such states parties to this compact, without interference.
304.13(1m)(e)
(e) That the governor of each state may designate an officer who, acting jointly with like officers of other contracting states, if and when appointed, shall promulgate such rules and regulations as may be deemed necessary to more effectively carry out the terms of this compact.
304.13(1m)(f)
(f) That this compact shall become operative immediately upon its ratification by any state as between it and any other state or states so ratifying. When ratified it shall have the full force and effect of law within such state, the form of ratification to be in accordance with the laws of the ratifying state.
304.13(1m)(g)
(g) That this compact shall continue in force and remain binding upon such ratifying state until renounced by it. The duties and obligations hereunder of a renouncing state shall continue as to parolees, persons on extended supervision or probationers residing therein at the time of withdrawal or until finally discharged by the sending state. Renunciation of this compact shall be by the same authority which ratified it, by sending 6 months' notice in writing of its intention to withdraw the compact to the other states party thereto.

1. “Receiving state" means a party to this compact other than a sending state.
304.13(1m)(h)2.
