This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.
Summary
Existing law requires that persons released after serving a term in state prison for specified felonies be subject to parole supervision by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Under existing law, if the supervising parole agency has determined that other sanctions are inappropriate, the agency may petition the court to revoke parole for specified violations. The court may respond to this petition by returning the person to parole supervision with a modification of conditions, revoke parole and order confinement in county jail, or refer the person to a reentry court. This bill would authorize the court, upon petition, to revoke parole and return the person to state prison for a period not to exceed one year. The bill would require the Legislative Analyst's Office, on or before January 1, 2015, to produce a report, to be delivered to the Assembly, the Senate, and the Governor's office, evaluating the criminal justice realignment, specifically with regard to offenders under state supervision, as specified.
