---|
| 53 | + | intentionally without a license, registration, or certification a class 6 |
---|
| 54 | + | felony. |
---|
| 55 | + | The bill states the purposes of probation are: |
---|
| 56 | + | ! To serve as a sentencing option and a response to crime in |
---|
| 57 | + | order to moderate and deter future criminal behavior and |
---|
| 58 | + | victimization; |
---|
| 59 | + | ! To support persons in behavior change through the |
---|
| 60 | + | coordination and provision of effective and individualized |
---|
| 61 | + | services which may include, but are not limited to, |
---|
| 62 | + | educational, therapeutic, restorative, and skill-building |
---|
| 63 | + | services; |
---|
| 64 | + | ! To hold persons accountable for their behavior through |
---|
| 65 | + | supervision and interventions that promote reparation of |
---|
| 66 | + | harm to the community and victims, which reparation |
---|
| 67 | + | includes, but is not limited to, restitution to victims; |
---|
| 68 | + | ! To serve as a cost-effective option for persons appropriate |
---|
| 69 | + | for community supervision; and |
---|
| 70 | + | ! To honor the statutory and constitutional rights of victims |
---|
| 71 | + | of crime. |
---|
| 72 | + | The bill requires a probation officer to issue a summons when a |
---|
| 73 | + | probationer has allegedly violated a condition of probation or the officer |
---|
| 74 | + | is seeking probation revocation, with some exceptions. |
---|
| 75 | + | The bill requires the state court administrator to develop a system |
---|
| 76 | + | of structured and individualized behavior responses to guide probation |
---|
| 77 | + | officers in determining how best to respond to probation violations. |
---|
| 78 | + | Under current law, when a parolee has a technical violation of |
---|
| 79 | + | parole, a brief period of confinement in a county jail may be imposed as |
---|
| 80 | + | a sanction. The bill allows that confinement to also be served in a |
---|
| 81 | + | department of corrections facility. |
---|
| 82 | + | The bill specifies that for a theft that involves public benefits, the |
---|
| 83 | + | value of the benefits involved for purposes of determining the level of the |
---|
| 84 | + | offense is calculated by the difference between the value of the benefits |
---|
| 85 | + | received and the value of benefits the recipient applied for and was |
---|
| 86 | + | lawfully eligible for. |
---|
| 87 | + | Under current law, it is illegal for someone to possess a firearm if |
---|
| 88 | + | the person was convicted of or adjudicated for a victim's right act crime |
---|
| 89 | + | that is a felony. The bill adds more felony offenses to the convictions that |
---|
| 90 | + | prohibit a person from possessing a firearm. |
---|
| 91 | + | Under current law, it is illegal for someone to possess a firearm if |
---|
| 92 | + | the person was previously adjudicated for a victim's right act crime that |
---|
| 93 | + | is a felony offense. The bill allows a person in that situation who has |
---|
| 94 | + | 1257 |
---|
| 95 | + | -2- good cause for possessing a firearm to petition the court for an order |
---|
| 96 | + | determining that the crime does not apply to the person. |
