23-22.013. Control Release Supervision  


Effective on Sunday, July 16, 2017
  • 1(1) Prior to an inmate being released by control release, the Commission shall determine whether there is to be a period of supervision. If there is supervision, the length of supervision shall be determined as follows:

    37(a) If the inmate is serving a single or concurrent sentence, the period of time the person shall be on control release supervision shall be the time specified by the control release matrix grid. However, the Commission has the authority to designate no supervision or a shorter period of time in which event it will record reasons for the alternative period of supervision. The total of time served and period of supervision shall not exceed the length of the court imposed sentence(s).

    119(b) If the inmate is serving a consecutive sentence or sentences and the Commission requires supervision, the period of time the inmate shall be on control release supervision shall be for the balance of the court imposed sentence(s).

    157(c) If the inmate has a conditional release eligible component contained within his cumulative sentence structure, the period of time the inmate shall be on control release supervision shall be for the balance of the court imposed sentence(s).

    758(3) As an alternative to standard supervision previously described in this rule and required by the matrices or subsection 77723-22.008(9), 778F.A.C., the Commission is authorized to require a control release term for any length of time up to the remainder of the inmate’s court imposed sentence under the solitary condition of:

    849(c) The Commission can use the alternative to standard supervision when:

A panel of no fewer than two Commissioners shall discharge from control release, relieve from making further reports or permit the releasee to leave the country upon determining that such action is in the best interest of the control releasee and of society. 1028Such cases shall be docketed before the panel of commissioners, if available, that initially set the terms and conditions of control release.

    1050(6) A panel of no fewer than two Commissioners shall review the progress of each person who has been placed on control release after 2 years of supervision and not less often than biennially thereafter.
