PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose and effect of the proposed rule is to amend Forms DC6-188, Inmate Promotional Request; DC6-193, Order Modifying Sentence; and DC3-234, Order Modifying Sentence and Placing Defendant on Probation. Form DC6-188 is being amended to change some of the form’s formatting, to include a check box so the inmate can simply indicate whether they received a high school diploma or GED prior to their incarceration, to clarify that the Institutional Classification Team and Review Board of Extended Day Program will be reviewing information contained on the form, and to change the form to reflect that the inmate should send the form to the Extended Day Sergeant. Forms DC6-193 and DC3-234 are being amended to update language in order to be consistent with the current language used in the order of supervision conditions.
SUMMARY: Rulemaking was initiated to update three forms, DC6-188, Inmate Promotional Request; DC6-193, Order Modifying Sentence; and DC3-234, Order Modifying Sentence and Placing Defendant on Probation.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: upon review of the proposed changes to these rules and incorporated forms, the department has determined that the amendments will not exceed any one of the economic analysis criteria in a SERC as set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
