LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 1023, Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review. Public safety:
realignment.
(1) Existing law, for purposes of the crime of money laundering,
defines criminal activity to mean a criminal offense punishable by
the laws of the state by death or imprisonment in the state prison.
This bill would include in the definition of criminal activity a
criminal offense punishable by imprisonment in county jail for more
than one year. By changing the definition of a crime, this bill would
impose a state-mandated local program.
(2) Existing law defines a felony as a crime that is punishable by
death, imprisonment in the state prison, or imprisonment in a county
jail for more than one year. Existing law also provides exceptions
to imprisonment in a county jail for a variety of felonies, including
serious or violent felonies and any felony for which registration as
a sex offender is required, among other exceptions. Under existing
law, when a court commits a person to county jail for a felony, the
court has the option of committing that person for the full term of
his or her sentence or suspending execution of a concluding portion
of the term, during which time the defendant shall be supervised by
the county probation officer in accordance with the terms,
conditions, and procedures generally applicable to persons placed on
probation. Existing law provides for the revocation of probation, as
specified.
This bill would define mandatory supervision as the portion of the
term that a defendant serves under supervision in compliance with
the above provision. The bill would, for those crimes defined as
serious or violent crimes or crimes for which registration as a sex
offender is required, specify that the sentence is to be served in
state prison.
The bill would require the revocation or modification of mandatory
supervision to be made pursuant to provisions of existing law
providing for the revocation of probation as well as make the
provisions for the revocation of probation applicable to the
revocation of postrelease community supervision and parole. The bill
would make related conforming changes.
(3) Existing law establishes a program of postrelease community
supervision for certain persons who are released from prison or whose
sentence has been deemed served after serving a prison term for a
felony. Existing law requires that these persons enter into a
postrelease community supervision agreement as a condition of their
release. Existing law includes specified provisions relating to a
person who is on parole or probation, including HIV testing and
release of summary criminal history information to the attorney
representing the person.
This bill would include a person who is subject to mandatory
supervision or postrelease community supervision in specified
provisions applicable to persons on parole and probation. The bill
would require a person who is eligible for postrelease community
supervision to be given notice that they are subject to postrelease
community supervision prior to release and would remove the
requirement for the person to enter into a postrelease community
supervision agreement.
(4) Existing law requires prisoners on parole to remain under the
supervision of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation but
prohibits them from being returned to prison except under specified
circumstances.
This bill would authorize a parolee awaiting parole revocation
processing to be housed in a county jail in the county where he or
she was arrested or the county in which a petition to revoke parole
has been filed or, if there is no county jail, in a county with which
the arresting county has contracted while awaiting revocation
proceedings or to be placed in an alternative custody program under
the sole jurisdiction of the county. The bill would also authorize
the housing of a juvenile who is awaiting parole revocation in a
facility of the Division of Juvenile Facilities.
(5) Under existing law, when a person is convicted of 2 or more
crimes, the 2nd or subsequent judgment upon which sentence is ordered
to be executed is required to direct whether the terms of
imprisonment run concurrently or consecutively.
This bill would require, whenever a court imposes a concurrent
term of imprisonment in the state prison for any one crime, the terms
for all other crimes for which the person is convicted be served in
state prison.
(6) Existing law, as amended by Proposition 69, approved by the
voters at the November 2, 2004, statewide general election, subjects
certain offenders to the collection of buccal swab samples, right
thumbprints, a full palm print impression of each hand, and blood
specimens or other biological samples for law enforcement
identification analysis. Existing law requires these samples to be
collected from any person on probation, parole, or other release,
including any juvenile, who has a record of any past or present
conviction for specified offenses and who is on probation or parole
for any felony or misdemeanor offense, provided certain specified
qualifications are met. Proposition 69 may be amended by a statute
that is passed by each house of the Legislature and signed by the
Governor, if the amendments further the purpose of the proposition
and enhance the use of DNA identification evidence, for the purposes
of accurate and expeditious crime-solving and exonerating the
innocent.
This bill would include, in addition to offenders on probation or
parole, any person, including a juvenile, who meets the above
criteria and who is on postrelease community supervision or mandatory
supervision.
Because this bill would impose additional duties on local agencies
to collect these samples, this bill would impose a state-mandated
local program.
(7) Existing law requires incarceration in a county jail for
certain specified felonies, and authorizes the court, when imposing a
felony sentence to be served in county jail, to commit the defendant
to a full term in custody, or, in the court's discretion, to suspend
execution of a concluding portion of the term during which the
defendant is supervised by the county probation officer for the
remaining unserved portion of the sentence. Existing law provides
that this period of supervision shall be mandatory, and may not be
earlier terminated by the court. Existing law provides that a
suspended sentence imposed pursuant to these provisions qualifies as
a prior county jail term for purposes of imposing a one-year sentence
enhancement when the term is suspended by the court to allow
postrelease supervision.
This bill would clarify this provision as imposing the one-year
sentence enhancement because of a prior term that was suspended by
the court to allow for mandatory supervision rather than postrelease
supervision.
(8) Existing law provides that during the period when a defendant
is under mandatory supervision that the defendant is entitled only to
actual time credit against the term of imprisonment imposed by the
court.
This bill would specify that any time period which is suspended
because a person has absconded would not be credited toward the
period of supervision.
(9) Except as provided, existing law requires that prosecution for
an offense punishable in state prison or in a county jail for more
than one year be commenced within 3 years of the offense.
This bill would make a conforming change by clarifying that
prosecution for an offense not punishable by imprisonment in a county
jail for a felony conviction shall be commenced within one year
after the commission of the offense.
(10) Existing law provides for the punishment of certain felonies
by imprisonment in a county jail for a term exceeding one year.
This bill would make clarifying changes providing for the
punishment of specified felonies in a county jail.
(11) Existing law allows the supervisors of any county to
authorize an electronic monitoring program for inmates being held in
lieu of bail in a county jail, provided that the inmate has no holds
or outstanding warrants and has either been held in custody for at
least 30 calendar days from the date of arraignment pending
disposition of only misdemeanor charges, or has been held in custody
pending disposition of charges for at least 60 calendar days from the
date of arraignment.
This bill would additionally allow an inmate to qualify for
participation in the electronic monitoring program if the inmate is
appropriate for the program based on a determination by the
correctional administrator that the inmate's participation would be
consistent with the public safety interests of the community.
(12) Existing law requires that any parolee who was paroled from
state prison prior to October 1, 2011, upon completion of a
revocation term on or after November 1, 2011, to either remain under
parole supervision of the Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation or be placed on postrelease community supervision.
This bill would require that any person on postrelease community
supervision after serving a term for a parole revocation pursuant to
these provisions serve a period of postrelease supervision that is no
longer than the time period for which the person would have served
if the person had remained on parole.
(13) Except as provided, existing law provides that a parolee may
be housed in a county jail for a maximum of 180 days upon revocation
of parole. Existing law also provides for sanctions or revocation of
postrelease community supervision, and provides that confinement
following these actions shall not exceed a period of 180 days in
county jail.
This bill would clarify that the maximum 180 days in county jail
for a parole revocation or postrelease community supervision sanction
or revocation applies per parole revocation or for each custodial
sanction.
(14) Existing law provides for postrelease community supervision
for all persons released from prison on and after October 1, 2011,
who did not serve a prison term for a violent or serious felony, or a
crime where the person was classified as a High Risk Sex Offender,
among others.
This bill would provide that the local supervising agency for
purposes of postrelease community supervision, in coordination with
the sheriff or local correction administrator, may require any person
released onto postrelease community supervision to report to a
supervising agent or designated local supervising agency within 2
days of release from the county jail. The bill would specify that
this provision does not prohibit the local supervising agency from
requiring the person to report to his or her assigned supervising
agent within a time period that is less than 2 days from the time of
release. The bill would provide that the sheriff or local
correctional administrator may release an inmate sentenced prior to
the effective date of the act adding these provisions one or 2 days
before his or her scheduled release date if the inmate's release date
falls on the day before a holiday or weekend.
(15) Existing law provides, if authorized by a court as specified,
that when the actual inmate count exceeds the actual bed capacity of
a county or city jail, that the person responsible for the jail may
accelerate the release of sentenced inmates up to a maximum of 5
days.
This would allow for the acceleration of release up to a maximum
of 30 days.
(16) Various provisions of existing law provide for the testing of
persons in the criminal justice system for HIV and provides
procedures regarding exposure to bodily fluids. Existing law applies
these provisions to persons on parole or probation.
This bill would also make these provisions applicable to persons
on mandatory supervision or postrelease community supervision.
Because this bill would impose additional duties on local agencies
in regard to testing for HIV for persons on mandatory supervision
and postrelease community supervision, the bill would impose a
state-mandated local program.
(17) Existing law requires the Department of Justice to maintain
state summary criminal history information and to make it available
to a public defender or attorney of record when representing a person
in a criminal case or a parole revocation or revocation extension
hearing.
This bill would require the Department of Justice to make the
state summary criminal history information available to the public
defender or attorney of record when representing someone in a
postrelease community supervision or mandatory supervision revocation
or revocation extension proceeding.
(18) Existing law requires a local agency to furnish local summary
criminal history information to a public defender or attorney of
record when representing a person in a criminal case and when
authorized access by statutory or decisional law.
This bill would additionally require the local agency to furnish
the local summary criminal history information to a public defender
or attorney of record when representing a person in a parole,
postrelease community supervision, or mandatory supervision
revocation or revocation extension proceeding.
By imposing new duties on local agencies, this bill would impose a
state-mandated local program.
(19) Existing law authorizes each of the Counties of Fresno, Kern,
Kings, Madera, Merced, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Tulare to
develop within its respective jurisdiction a Central Valley Rural
Crime Prevention Program, to be administered by the county district
attorney's office of each respective county under a joint powers
agreement with the corresponding county sheriff's office, as
provided. Existing law makes these provisions inoperative on July 1,
2012, and repeals these provisions January 1, 2013.
Existing law authorizes the Counties of Monterey, San Luis Obispo,
Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, and San Benito to each develop within
their respective jurisdictions a Central Coast Rural Crime Prevention
Program, to be administered by the county district attorney's office
of each respective county under a joint powers agreement with the
corresponding county sheriff's office, as provided. Existing law
makes these provisions inoperative on July 1, 2013, and repeals these
provisions January 1, 2014.
This bill would delete the provisions repealing the authorization
for these programs, thereby making the programs operative
indefinitely.
(20) Existing law authorizes a county to impose a fee, not to
exceed 1/2 of the actual administrative costs, upon a city, special
district, school district, community college district, college, or
university for reimbursement of county expenses incurred with respect
to the processing of persons arrested by an employee of the city,
special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university when the arrestee is brought to the county
jail for booking or detention. Existing law requires the county to
adopt any increase in this fee prior to the beginning of its fiscal
year and only after 45 days' written notice to the affected entities
of a public meeting on the fee increase and the holding of the public
meeting.
This bill would no longer limit fee increases to the beginning of
a fiscal year and would remove the notice and public meeting
requirements for the county.
(21) Under existing law, cities and counties that charge fees to a
city, special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university as specified above, are authorized to apply
to the Controller to receive funding that is equal to the fee revenue
received by the city or county during the 2006-07 fiscal year, to
the extent funding is appropriated, or proportional to other entities
if funding is insufficient. Existing law, commencing with the
2009-10 fiscal year, funds these payments from the Local Safety and
Protection Account in the Transportation Tax Fund and, commencing
with the 2011-12 fiscal year, funds the payments with a $35,000,000
appropriation from the Local Law Enforcement Services Account in the
Local Revenue Fund 2011.
This bill would, commencing with the 2012-13 fiscal year, allocate
funds as specified from the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities
Subaccount. The bill would appropriate, for the 2012-13 fiscal year
and beyond, moneys that previously came from the Local Law
Enforcement Services Account from the Enhancing Law Enforcement
Activities Subaccount.
(22) Existing law requires each county to establish in the county
treasury a Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Account (SLESA) for
the receipt and allocation of funds for specified local law
enforcement purposes, including jail construction and operation,
criminal prosecution, and juvenile justice plans. Under existing law,
funds that are unspent or which were allocated to an entity that did
not qualify for receipt of the funds are required to be returned to
the originating account. Existing law requires each county to
establish a Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight Committee (SLEOC)
to determine whether the recipient entities have expended moneys
received from the SLESA appropriately. Existing law requires city and
county auditors and treasurers to submit specified information on
the allocations from the SLESA and to the SLEOC and requires a
summary of the reports to be submitted to the Controller and other
entities by each SLEOC.
This bill would make specified changes in the procedures by which
counties and other local entities distribute the funds placed in the
SLESA, including removing the requirement for each county to have a
SLEOC and would remove the above reporting requirements for cities
and counties expending SLESA moneys. The bill would also, for the
2012-13 fiscal year, appropriate 21.86% of the Enhancing Law
Enforcement Activities Subaccount in the Local Revenue Fund 2011 for
adult programs funded by the county SLESA funds and 21.86% to fund
juvenile justice plans funded through the SLESA. The bill would
remove the requirement for counties or other local entities eligible
for these funds to return unspent funds or funds for which the entity
did not qualify in the fiscal year. The bill would also make
conforming changes.
(23) Existing law appropriates 12.68% of the Local Safety
Protection Account in the Transportation Fund to the California
Emergency Management Agency (CalEMA). Additionally, for the 2011-12
fiscal year, existing law requires the allocation of 9% of the Local
Law Enforcement Services Account to the CalEMA for use as specified,
including, but not limited to, the California Multi-Jurisdictional
Methamphetamine Enforcement Teams, Multi-Agency Gang Enforcement
Consortium, and the Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement Teams.
This bill would, commencing with the 2012-13 fiscal year, allocate
8.35% of the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount for use
by the specified programs described above.
(24) Existing law establishes in the Board of State and Community
Corrections, the Gang Violence Suppression Program to provide
technical and financial assistance for district attorney's offices,
local law enforcement agencies, county probation departments, school
districts, county offices of education, or community-based
organizations that are primarily engaged in the suppression of gang
violence. Funds awarded pursuant to this program are not to supplant
local funds that would ordinarily fund the activities. Existing law
sets forth guidelines and criteria for funding gang suppression
programs.
This bill would remove the priority guidelines for funding gang
suppression programs and would make the conditions for participation
voluntary instead of mandatory.
(25) Existing law establishes in the CalEMA a program of financial
aid and technical assistance for law enforcement and district
attorneys' offices, designated as the High Technology Theft
Apprehension and Prosecution Program. Moneys appropriated to this
program are required to be spent to fund programs that expand the
capacity of local law enforcement and prosecutors to deter,
investigate, and prosecute high-technology-related crimes. Existing
law provides that up to 10% of the funds appropriated to the program
may be used for developing and maintaining a statewide database on
high technology crime, as provided, and that the Secretary of
California Emergency Management may allocate and award up to 5% of
the funds to be made available to public agencies or private
nonprofit organizations for the purposes of establishing statewide
programs relating to deterring, investigating, and prosecuting high
technology crimes.
Existing law establishes the High Technology Crime Advisory
Committee for the purpose of formulating a comprehensive written
strategy for addressing high-technology crime in the state and
advising the CalEMA on distribution of funds to regional task forces
pursuant to the High Technology Theft Apprehension and Prosecution
Program.
This bill would dissolve the High Technology Crime Advisory
Committee and remove the High Technology Theft Apprehension and
Prosecution Program from the CalEMA. This bill would remove the 10%
limitation on the use of the funds for the statewide database on high
technology crime and the 5% limitation on the use of funds for the
establishment of statewide programs relating to high technology
crimes and would specify funds to be allocated to the Department of
Justice and the California District Attorneys Association that may be
used to fund these programs, as specified.
(26) Existing law authorizes the establishment of the Central
Valley Rural Crime Prevention Program and the Central Coast Rural
Crime Prevention Program, until July 1, 2012, and July 1, 2013,
respectively, administered by the county district attorney's office
of each county under a joint powers agreement with the corresponding
sheriff's office. Existing law requires the parties to the agreement
to form a joint task force that includes specified parties, including
the county district attorney, the county sheriff, and interested
property owner groups or associations. Existing law prescribes
requirements for the program implementation by the counties.
This bill would extend the above programs indefinitely, would
authorize the county sheriff's department to administer the program,
and would make the specific provisions of the rural crime prevention
programs voluntary instead of mandatory.
(27) Existing law appropriates 30.19% of the Local Safety and
Protection Account in the Transportation Fund to serve children who
are habitual truants, runaways, at risk of being wards of the court,
or under juvenile court supervision or supervision of the probation
department. Existing law, for the 2011-12 fiscal year, appropriates
33.38% of the Local Law Enforcement Services Account for this
purpose.
This bill would appropriate, commencing with the 2012-13 fiscal
year, 30.99% of the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount
to serve children who are habitual truants, runaways, at risk of
being wards of the court, or under juvenile court supervision or
supervision of the probation department, as prescribed.
(28) Existing law appropriates 6.47% of the Local Law Enforcement
Services Account among counties that operate juvenile camps and
ranches, based on the number of beds in each camp.
This bill, commencing with the 2012-13 fiscal year, would
appropriate 6.01% of the funds in the Enhancing Law Enforcement
Activities Subaccount for this purpose.
(29) Existing law makes it a crime to carry an explosive
substance, other than fixed ammunition, concealed on the person, or
to manufacture, import, provide, or possess any metal military
practice handgrenade or metal replica handgrenade, air gauge knife,
belt buckle knife, cane sword, lipstick case knife, shobi-zue,
writing pen knife, ballistic knife, dirk, dagger, metal knuckles,
nanchaku, leaded cane, shuriken, camouflaging firearm container, cane
gun, firearm not immediately recognizable as a firearm, undetectable
firearm, wallet gun, ammunition containing or consisting of any
flechette dart, bullet containing or carrying an explosive agent,
unconventional pistol, large-capacity magazine, multiburst trigger
activator, short-barreled rifle, short-barreled shotgun, or zip gun.
Under existing law these crimes are punishable either as misdemeanors
punishable by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year
or as felonies punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for 16
months, or 2 or 3 years.
This bill would instead make these crimes punishable as
misdemeanors by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year,
or as felonies punishable in a county jail for 16 months, or 2 or 3
years. By imposing additional incarceration costs on local agencies,
this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
(30) Existing law requires that for certain specified offenders,
including offenders convicted of a serious or violent felony, and
persons classified as a High Risk Sex Offender, among others, the
period of parole shall not exceed five years in the case of any
inmate imprisoned for any offense other than first or second degree
murder for which the inmate received a life sentence, and shall not
exceed 3 years in the case of any other inmate, unless the Board of
Parole Hearings for good cause waives parole and discharges the
inmate from custody of the department. Existing law requires that at
the expiration of a term of imprisonment of one year and one day, or
at the expiration of a determinate sentence, the inmate shall be
released on parole for a period not exceeding 3 years, except that
any inmate sentenced for certain specified serious felonies shall be
released on parole for a period not exceeding 10 years. Existing law
provides that the sole authority to issue warrants for the return to
actual custody of any state prisoner released on parole rests with
the Board of Parole Hearings.
This bill would make these provisions applicable to any inmate
described above who is sentenced for a crime committed prior to July
1, 2013. On and after July 1, 2013, the bill would provide that the
period of parole shall be imposed as specified unless waived by the
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The bill would require,
for a crime committed on or after July 1, 2013, that at the
expiration of a term of imprisonment of one year and one day, or for
a determinate sentence, the inmate would be released on parole for a
period of 3 years, except that any inmate sentenced for specified
serious felonies would be released on parole for a period of 10
years.
The bill would require the department to consider the request of
an inmate whose commitment offense occurred on or after July 1, 2013,
regarding the length of his or her parole and the conditions
thereof, except that for persons sentenced to life would be
considered by the Board
of Parole Hearings. The bill would provide that on or after July 1,
2013, the sole authority to issue warrants for the return to actual
custody of any state prisoner released on parole would rest with a
court pursuant to provisions providing for the revocation of
probation.
The bill would require that a person released from prison prior to
or on or after July 1, 2013, after serving a prison term, or whose
sentence was deemed served after earning credits, for a serious or
violent felony, or for a crime for which the person is classified as
a High Risk Sex Offender, among other crimes, who is eligible for
release on parole for a period of 3 years or 10 years pursuant to the
above provisions, who is required to register as a sex offender
pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration Act or who was imprisoned
for committing a serious felony, who has been released from state
prison, and who has been on parole continuously for one year since
release from confinement, to be discharged from parole within 30
days, unless the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation
recommends to the Board of Parole Hearings that the person be
retained on parole and the board, for good cause, determines that the
person will be retained. The bill would require the department to
submit recommendations to the Board of Parole Hearings for any person
described in these provisions who has been released from state
prison from October 1, 2010, to the effective date of this bill, and
who has been on parole continuously for one year since his or her
release from confinement. The bill would require that a person who
meets this criteria who is not retained on parole by the Board of
Parole Hearings by the 91st day after the effective date of this bill
to be discharged from parole.
(31) Existing law requires the parole authority to revoke the
parole of any prisoner who refuses to sign a parole agreement setting
forth the general and any special conditions applicable to the
parole, among other things. Existing law prohibits the Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation from returning prison, placing a
parole hold on, or reporting a parole violation regarding any person
to whom specified criteria apply, including that the person did not
refuse to sign the written notification of parole requirements and
conditions.
This bill would remove the requirement that the prisoner sign a
parole agreement. The bill would instead require that the inmate be
given notice that he or she is subject to terms and conditions of his
or her release from prison. The bill would require the notice to
include the person's release date and maximum period the person may
be subject to supervision, and advisement that if the person violates
any laws or conditions of his or her release that he or she may be
incarcerated, as provided, and an advisement that he or she is
subject to search or seizure by a probation or parole officer or
other peace officer at any time day or night, with or without a
search warrant or with or without cause.
(32) Existing law provides that the Governor may request review of
any decision by a parole authority concerning the grant or denial of
parole to any inmate in a state prison, and requires a randomly
selected committee comprised of 9 commissioners specifically
appointed to hear adult parole matters to review the parole decision.
This bill would instead require the Governor's request to be
reviewed by a majority of the commissioners.
(33) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse
local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no
reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that,
if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains
costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall
be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
(34) This bill would appropriate $1,000 from the General Fund to

Appropriation: yes.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. This act is entitled and may be cited as 2011
Realignment Legislation.
SEC. 2. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this act to
provide for a uniform supervision revocation process for petitions to
revoke probation, mandatory supervision, postrelease community
supervision, and parole.
(b) By amending subparagraph (B) of paragraph (5) of subdivision
(h) of Section 1170, subdivision (f) of Section 3000.08, and
subdivision (a) of Section 3455 of the Penal Code to apply to
probation revocation procedures under Section 1203.2 of the Penal
Code, it is the intent of the Legislature that these amendments
simultaneously incorporate the procedural due process protections
held to apply to probation revocation procedures under Morrissey v.
Brewer (1972) 408 U.S. 471, and People v. Vickers (1972) 8 Cal.3d
451, and their progeny.
SEC. 3. Section 29550 of the Government Code is amended to read:
29550. (a) (1) Subject to subdivision (d) of Section 29551, a
county may impose a fee upon a city, special district, school
district, community college district, college, or university for
reimbursement of county expenses incurred with respect to the booking
or other processing of persons arrested by an employee of that city,
special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university, where the arrested persons are brought to the
county jail for booking or detention. The fee imposed by a county
pursuant to this section shall not exceed the actual administrative
costs, including applicable overhead costs as permitted by federal
Circular A-87 standards, as defined in subdivision (d), incurred in
booking or otherwise processing arrested persons. For the 2005-06
fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the fee imposed by a
county pursuant to this subdivision shall not exceed one-half of the
actual administrative costs, including applicable overhead costs as
permitted by federal Circular A-87 standards, as defined in
subdivision (d), incurred in booking or otherwise processing arrested
persons. A county may submit an invoice to a city, special district,
school district, community college district, college, or university
for these expenses incurred by the county on and after July 1, 1990.
Counties shall fully disclose the costs allocated as federal Circular
A-87 overhead.
(2) Any county that imposes a fee pursuant to this section shall
negotiate a reduced fee with any city, special district, school
district, community college district, college, or university within
the county for any services that are performed by the arresting
agency in the processing of arrestees that do not have to be
duplicated by the county.
(3) This subdivision shall not apply to counties that are under a
contractual agreement with a city, special district, school
district, community college district, college, or university within
the county that is subject to the fee.
(b) The exemption of a local agency from the payment of a fee
pursuant to this subdivision does not exempt the person arrested from
the payment of fees for booking or other processing.
(1) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a city, special district,
school district, community college district, college, or university
shall not be charged fees for arrests on any bench warrant for
failure to appear in court, nor on any arrest warrant issued in
connection with a crime not committed within the entity's
jurisdiction.
(2) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a city, special district,
school district, community college district, college, or university
shall not be charged fees for a person who is ordered by a court to
be remanded to the county jail except that a county may charge a fee
to recover those direct costs for those functions required to book a
person pursuant to subdivision (g) of Section 853.6 of the Penal
Code.
(3) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a city, special district,
school district, community college district, college, or university
shall not be charged fees for arrests made pursuant to arrest
warrants originating outside of its jurisdiction.
(4) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), no fees shall be charged to a
city, special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university on parole violation arrests or
probation-ordered returns to custody, unless a new charge has been
filed for a crime committed in the jurisdiction of the arresting
city, district, college, or university.
(5) An agency making a mutual aid request shall pay fees in
accordance with subdivision (a) that result from arrests made in
response to the mutual aid request except that in the event the
Governor declares a state of emergency, no agency shall be charged
fees for any arrest made during any riot, disturbance, or event that
is subject to the declaration.
(6) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), no fees shall be charged to a
city, special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university for the arrest of a prisoner who has escaped
from a county, state, or federal detention or corrections facility.
(7) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), no fees shall be charged to a
city, special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university for arrestees held in temporary detention at
a court facility for purposes of arraignment when the arrestee has
been previously booked at an entity detention facility.
(8) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), no fees shall be charged to a
city, special district, school district, community college district,
college, or university as the result of an arrest made by its
officer assigned to a formal multiagency task force in which the
county is a participant. For the purposes of this section, "formal
task force" means a task force that has been established by written
agreement of the participating agencies.
(9) In those counties where the cities and the county participate
in a consolidated booking program and where prior to arraignment an
arrestee is transferred from a city detention facility to a county
detention facility, the city shall not be charged for those tasks
listed in subdivision (d) that are a part of the consolidated booking
program which were completed by the city prior to delivering the
arrestee to the county detention facility. However, the county may
charge the actual administrative costs for those additional tasks
listed in subdivision (d) that are performed in order to receive the
arrestee into the county detention facility. For the 2005-06 fiscal
year and each fiscal year thereafter, the county may charge up to
one-half of the actual administrative costs for those additional
tasks listed in subdivision (d) that are performed in order to
receive the arrestee into the county detention facility.
(c) Any county whose officer or agent arrests a person is entitled
to recover from the arrested person a criminal justice
administration fee for administrative costs it incurs in conjunction
with the arrest if the person is convicted of any criminal offense
related to the arrest, whether or not it is the offense for which the
person was originally booked. The fee which the county is entitled
to recover pursuant to this subdivision shall not exceed the actual
administrative costs, including applicable overhead costs incurred in
booking or otherwise processing arrested persons.
(d) When the court has been notified in a manner specified by the
court that a criminal justice administration fee is due the agency:
(1) A judgment of conviction may impose an order for payment of
the amount of the criminal justice administration fee by the
convicted person, and execution may be issued on the order in the
same manner as a judgment in a civil action, but shall not be
enforceable by contempt.
(2) The court shall, as a condition of probation, order the
convicted person, based on his or her ability to pay, to reimburse
the county for the criminal justice administration fee, including
applicable overhead costs.
(e) As used in this section, "actual administrative costs" include
only those costs for functions that are performed in order to
receive an arrestee into a county detention facility. Operating
expenses of the county jail facility including capital costs and
those costs involved in the housing, feeding, and care of inmates
shall not be included in calculating "actual administrative costs."
"Actual administrative costs" may include the cost of notifying any
local agency, special district, school district, community college
district, college or university of any change in the fee charged by a
county pursuant to this section. "Actual administrative costs" may
include any one or more of the following as related to receiving an
arrestee into the county detention facility:
(1) The searching, wristbanding, bathing, clothing,
fingerprinting, photographing, and medical and mental screening of an
arrestee.
(2) Document preparation, retrieval, updating, filing, and court
scheduling related to receiving an arrestee into the detention
facility.
(3) Warrant service, processing, and detainer.

(8) The direct costs of automated services utilized in paragraphs
(1) to (7), inclusive.
(9) Unit management and supervision of the detention function as
related to paragraphs (1) to (8), inclusive.
(f) An administrative screening fee of twenty-five dollars ($25)
shall be collected from each person arrested and released on his or
her own recognizance upon conviction of any criminal offense related
to the arrest other than an infraction. A citation processing fee in
the amount of ten dollars ($10) shall be collected from each person
cited and released by any peace officer in the field or at a jail
facility upon conviction of any criminal offense, other than an
infraction, related to the criminal offense cited in the notice to
appear. However, the court may determine a lesser fee than otherwise
provided in this subdivision upon a showing that the defendant is
unable to pay the full amount. All fees collected pursuant to this
subdivision shall be transmitted by the county auditor monthly to the
Controller for deposit in the General Fund. This subdivision applies
only to convictions occurring on or after the effective date of the
act adding this subdivision and prior to June 30, 1996.
SEC. 4. Section 29552 of the Government Code is amended to read:
29552. (a) (1) Commencing with the 2007-08 fiscal year, all
counties and cities and counties that charged fees pursuant to
Section 29550 and cities with Type One detention facilities that
charged fees pursuant to Section 29550.3 during the 2006-07 fiscal
year may apply to the Controller to receive funding provided pursuant
to subdivision (b) that is equal to the fee revenue received by the
county, city and county, or city during the 2006-07 fiscal year, to
the extent that funding is appropriated therefore in the annual
budget act or other appropriation legislation. If insufficient funds
are appropriated to equal the full amount of fees received in the
2006-07 fiscal year, each county, city and county and city that
applies for funding shall receive a share of the appropriated funds
proportionate to the share of fees it received in the 2006-07 fiscal
year compared to the statewide total reported to the Controller.
(2) The remaining portion of any amount appropriated for purposes
of this section shall be paid proportionally to all counties, cities
and counties, and cities based on the number of bookings within each
county during the year previous to the current payment.
(b) Commencing with the 2011-12 fiscal year, payments authorized
by this section shall be fully funded from the Local Law Enforcement
Services Account in the Local Revenue Fund 2011. The Controller shall
allocate thirty-five million dollars ($35,000,000) of the moneys
annually deposited in the Local Law Enforcement Services Account in
the Local Revenue Fund 2011 for purposes of these payments.
(c) Commencing with the 2012-13 fiscal year, the Controller shall

SEC. 6. Section 30061 of the Government Code is amended to read:
30061. (a) There shall be established in each county treasury a
Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Account (SLESA), to receive all
amounts allocated to a county for purposes of implementing this
chapter.
(b) In any fiscal year for which a county receives moneys to be
expended for the implementation of this chapter, the county auditor
shall allocate the moneys in the county's SLESA within 30 days of the
deposit of those moneys into the fund. The moneys shall be allocated
as follows:
(1) Five and fifteen-hundredths percent to the county sheriff for
county jail construction and operation. In the case of Madera, Napa,
and Santa Clara Counties, this allocation shall be made to the county
director or chief of corrections.
(2) Five and fifteen-hundredths percent to the district attorney
for criminal prosecution.
(3) Thirty-nine and seven-tenths percent to the county and the
cities within the county, and, in the case of San Mateo, Kern,
Siskiyou, and Contra Costa Counties, also to the Broadmoor Police
Protection District, the Bear Valley Community Services District, the
Stallion Springs Community Services District, the Lake Shastina
Community Services District, and the Kensington Police Protection and
Community Services District, in accordance with the relative
population of the cities within the county and the unincorporated
area of the county, and the Broadmoor Police Protection District in
the County of San Mateo, the Bear Valley Community Services District
and the Stallion Springs Community Services District in Kern County,
the Lake Shastina Community Services District in Siskiyou County, and
the Kensington Police Protection and Community Services District in
Contra Costa County, as specified in the most recent January estimate
by the population research unit of the Department of Finance, and as
adjusted to provide, except as provided in subdivision (j), a grant
of at least one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) to each law
enforcement jurisdiction. For a newly incorporated city whose
population estimate is not published by the Department of Finance,
but that was incorporated prior to July 1 of the fiscal year in which
an allocation from the SLESA is to be made, the city manager, or an
appointee of the legislative body, if a city manager is not
available, and the county administrative or executive officer shall
prepare a joint notification to the Department of Finance and the
county auditor with a population estimate reduction of the
unincorporated area of the county equal to the population of the
newly incorporated city by July 15, or within 15 days after the
Budget Act is enacted, of the fiscal year in which an allocation from
the SLESA is to be made. No person residing within the Broadmoor
Police Protection District, the Bear Valley Community Services
District, the Stallion Springs Community Services District, the Lake
Shastina Community Services District, or the Kensington Police
Protection and Community Services District shall also be counted as
residing within the unincorporated area of the County of San Mateo,
Kern, Siskiyou, or Contra Costa, or within any city located within
those counties. Except as provided in subdivision (j), the county
auditor shall allocate a grant of at least one hundred thousand
dollars ($100,000) to each law enforcement jurisdiction. Moneys
allocated to the county pursuant to this subdivision shall be
retained in the county SLESA, and moneys allocated to a city pursuant
to this subdivision shall be deposited in an SLESA established in
the city treasury.
(4) Fifty percent to the county or city and county to implement a
comprehensive multiagency juvenile justice plan as provided in this
paragraph. The juvenile justice plan shall be developed by the local
juvenile justice coordinating council in each county and city and
county with the membership described in Section 749.22 of the Welfare
and Institutions Code. If a plan has been previously approved by the
Corrections Standards Authority or, commencing July 1, 2012, by the
Board of State and Community Corrections, the plan shall be reviewed
and modified annually by the council. The plan or modified plan shall
be approved by the county board of supervisors, and in the case of a
city and county, the plan shall also be approved by the mayor. The
plan or modified plan shall be submitted to the Board of State and
Community Corrections by May 1 of each year.
(A) Juvenile justice plans shall include, but not be limited to,
all of the following components:
(i) An assessment of existing law enforcement, probation,
education, mental health, health, social services, drug and alcohol,
and youth services resources that specifically target at-risk
juveniles, juvenile offenders, and their families.
(ii) An identification and prioritization of the neighborhoods,
schools, and other areas in the community that face a significant
public safety risk from juvenile crime, such as gang activity,
daylight burglary, late-night robbery, vandalism, truancy, controlled
substances sales, firearm-related violence, and juvenile substance
abuse and alcohol use.
(iii) A local juvenile justice action strategy that provides for a
continuum of responses to juvenile crime and delinquency and
demonstrates a collaborative and integrated approach for implementing
a system of swift, certain, and graduated responses for at-risk
youth and juvenile offenders.
(iv) Programs identified in clause (iii) that are proposed to be
funded pursuant to this subparagraph, including the projected amount
of funding for each program.
(B) Programs proposed to be funded shall satisfy all of the
following requirements:
(i) Be based on programs and approaches that have been
demonstrated to be effective in reducing delinquency and addressing
juvenile crime for any elements of response to juvenile crime and
delinquency, including prevention, intervention, suppression, and
incapacitation.
(ii) Collaborate and integrate services of all the resources set
forth in clause (i) of subparagraph (A), to the extent appropriate.
(iii) Employ information sharing systems to ensure that county
actions are fully coordinated, and designed to provide data for
measuring the success of juvenile justice programs and strategies.
(iv) Adopt goals related to the outcome measures that shall be
used to determine the effectiveness of the local juvenile justice
action strategy.
(C) The plan shall also identify the specific objectives of the
programs proposed for funding and specified outcome measures to
determine the effectiveness of the programs and contain an accounting
for all program participants, including those who do not complete
the programs. Outcome measures of the programs proposed to be funded
shall include, but not be limited to, all of the following:
(i) The rate of juvenile arrests per 100,000 population.
(ii) The rate of successful completion of probation.
(iii) The rate of successful completion of restitution and
court-ordered community service responsibilities.
(iv) Arrest, incarceration, and probation violation rates of
program participants.
(v) Quantification of the annual per capita costs of the program.
(D) The Board of State and Community Corrections shall review
plans or modified plans submitted pursuant to this paragraph within
30 days upon receipt of submitted or resubmitted plans or modified
plans. The board shall approve only those plans or modified plans
that fulfill the requirements of this paragraph, and shall advise a
submitting county or city and county immediately upon the approval of
its plan or modified plan. The board shall offer, and provide, if
requested, technical assistance to any county or city and county that
submits a plan or modified plan not in compliance with the
requirements of this paragraph. The SLESA shall only allocate funding
pursuant to this paragraph upon notification from the board that a
plan or modified plan has been approved.
(E) To assess the effectiveness of programs funded pursuant to
this paragraph using the program outcome criteria specified in
subparagraph (C), the following periodic reports shall be submitted:
(i) Each county or city and county shall report, beginning October
15, 2002, and annually each October 15 thereafter, to the county
board of supervisors and the Board of State and Community
Corrections, in a format specified by the board, on the programs
funded pursuant to this chapter and program outcomes as specified in
subparagraph (C).
(ii) The Board of State and Community Corrections shall compile
the local reports and, by March 15, 2003, and annually thereafter,
make a report to the Governor and the Legislature on program
expenditures within each county and city and county from the
appropriation for the purposes of this paragraph, on the outcomes as
specified in subparagraph (C) of the programs funded pursuant to this
paragraph and the statewide effectiveness of the comprehensive
multiagency juvenile justice plans.
(c) Subject to subdivision (d), for each fiscal year in which the
county, each city, the Broadmoor Police Protection District, the Bear
Valley Community Services District, the Stallion Springs Community
Services District, the Lake Shastina Community Services District, and
the Kensington Police Protection and Community Services District
receive moneys pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision (b), the
county, each city, and each district specified in this subdivision
shall appropriate those moneys in accordance with the following
procedures:
(1) In the case of the county, the county board of supervisors
shall appropriate existing and anticipated moneys exclusively to
provide frontline law enforcement services, other than those services
specified in paragraphs (1) and (2) of subdivision (b), in the
unincorporated areas of the county, in response to written requests
submitted to the board by the county sheriff and the district
attorney. Any request submitted pursuant to this paragraph shall
specify the frontline law enforcement needs of the requesting entity,
and those personnel, equipment, and programs that are necessary to
meet those needs.
(2) In the case of a city, the city council shall appropriate
existing and anticipated moneys exclusively to fund frontline
municipal police services, in accordance with written requests
submitted by the chief of police of that city or the chief
administrator of the law enforcement agency that provides police
services for that city.
(3) In the case of the Broadmoor Police Protection District within
the County of San Mateo, the Bear Valley Community Services District
or the Stallion Springs Community Services District within Kern
County, the Lake Shastina Community Services District within Siskiyou
County, or the Kensington Police Protection and Community Services
District within Contra Costa County, the legislative body of that
special district shall appropriate existing and anticipated moneys
exclusively to fund frontline municipal police services, in
accordance with written requests submitted by the chief administrator
of the law enforcement agency that provides police services for that
special district.
(d) For each fiscal year in which the county, a city, or the
Broadmoor Police Protection District within the County of San Mateo,
the Bear Valley Community Services District or the Stallion Springs
Community Services District within Kern County, the Lake Shastina
Community Services District within Siskiyou County, or the Kensington
Police Protection and Community Services District within Contra
Costa County receives any moneys pursuant to this chapter, in no
event shall the governing body of any of those recipient agencies
subsequently alter any previous, valid appropriation by that body,
for that same fiscal year, of moneys allocated to the county or city
pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision (b).
(e) For the 2011-12 fiscal year, the Controller shall allocate
23.54 percent of the amount deposited in the Local Law Enforcement
Services Account in the Local Revenue Fund 2011 for the purposes of
paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of subdivision (b), and shall allocate
23.54 percent for purposes of paragraph (4) of subdivision (b).

of the following fiscal year. A local agency that has not met the
requirement of this subdivision shall remit unspent SLESA moneys
received after April 1, 2009, to the Controller for deposit in the
Local Safety and Protection Account, after April 1, 2012, to the
Local Law Enforcement Services Account, and after July 1, 2012, to
the County Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount.
(i) In the 2010-11 fiscal year, if the fourth quarter revenue

the Revenue and Taxation Code that are deposited in the General Fund
and transferred to the Local Safety and Protection Account, and
continuously appropriated to the Controller for allocation pursuant
to this section, are insufficient to provide a minimum grant of one
hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) to each law enforcement
jurisdiction, the county auditor shall allocate the revenue
proportionately, based on the allocation schedule in paragraph (3) of
subdivision (b). The county auditor shall proportionately allocate,
based on the allocation schedule in paragraph (3) of subdivision (b),
all revenues received after the distribution of the fourth quarter
allocation attributable to these fees for which payment was due prior
to July 1, 2011, until all minimum allocations are fulfilled, at

enforcement services. These moneys shall supplement existing
services, and shall not be used to supplant any existing funding for

by those city attorneys of misdemeanor violations of state law.
(c) In no event shall any moneys allocated from the county's SLESA
be expended by a recipient agency to fund any of the following:
(1) Administrative overhead costs in excess of 0.5 percent of a
recipient entity's SLESA allocation for that year.
(2) The costs of any capital project or construction project
funded from moneys allocated pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision

enforcement services.
(3) The costs of any capital project or construction project
funded from moneys allocated pursuant to paragraph (4) of subdivision
(b) of Section 30061.
(d) For purposes of subdivision (c), both of the following shall
apply:
(1) A "recipient agency" or "recipient entity" is that entity that
actually incurs the expenditures of SLESA funds allocated pursuant
to paragraph (1), (2), (3), or (4) of subdivision (b) of Section
30061.
(2) Administrative overhead costs shall only be charged by the
recipient entity, as defined in paragraph (1), up to 0.5 percent of

inappropriate or ineffective.
(2) In any case in which a person is convicted of violating this
section, and as a condition of probation, the court prohibits the
defendant from having contact with the victim, the court order
prohibiting contact shall not be modified except upon the request of
the victim and a finding by the court that the modification is in the
best interest of the victim. As used in this paragraph, "contact
with the victim" includes all physical contact, being in the presence
of the victim, communication by any means, any communication by a
third party acting on behalf of the defendant, and any gifts.
(e) Nothing in this section prohibits prosecution under any other
provision of law.
SEC. 21. Section 653f of the Penal Code is amended to read:

the Welfare and Institutions Code shall be punished by imprisonment
in a county jail for not exceeding six months. Every person who,

SEC. 22. Section 667.5 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
667.5. Enhancement of prison terms for new offenses because of
prior prison terms shall be imposed as follows:
(a) Where one of the new offenses is one of the violent felonies
specified in subdivision (c), in addition to and consecutive to any
other prison terms therefor, the court shall impose a three-year term
for each prior separate prison term served by the defendant where
the prior offense was one of the violent felonies specified in
subdivision (c). However, no additional term shall be imposed under
this subdivision for any prison term served prior to a period of 10
years in which the defendant remained free of both prison custody and
the commission of an offense which results in a felony conviction.
(b) Except where subdivision (a) applies, where the new offense is
any felony for which a prison sentence or a sentence of imprisonment
in a county jail under subdivision (h) of Section 1170 is imposed or
is not suspended, in addition and consecutive to any other sentence
therefor, the court shall impose a one-year term for each prior
separate prison term or county jail term imposed under subdivision

provided that no additional term shall be imposed under this
subdivision for any prison term or county jail term imposed under

custody imposed under subdivision (h) of Section 1170 or any felony
sentence that is not suspended. A term imposed under the provisions
of paragraph (5) of subdivision (h) of Section 1170, wherein a
portion of the term is suspended by the court to allow mandatory
supervision, shall qualify as a prior county jail term for the
purposes of the one-year enhancement.
(c) For the purpose of this section, "violent felony" shall mean
any of the following:
(1) Murder or voluntary manslaughter.

after July 1, 1977, or as specified prior to July 1, 1977, in
Sections 213, 264, and 461, or any felony in which the defendant uses

subdivision (a) of Section 12022.3, or Section 12022.5 or 12022.55.

(23) A violation of subdivision (b) or (c) of Section 11418. The
Legislature finds and declares that these specified crimes merit
special consideration when imposing a sentence to display society's
condemnation for these extraordinary crimes of violence against the
person.
(d) For the purposes of this section, the defendant shall be
deemed to remain in prison custody for an offense until the official
discharge from custody, including any period of mandatory
supervision, or until release on parole or postrelease community
supervision, whichever first occurs, including any time during which
the defendant remains subject to reimprisonment or custody in county
jail for escape from custody or is reimprisoned on revocation of
parole or postrelease community supervision. The additional penalties
provided for prior prison terms shall not be imposed unless they are
charged and admitted or found true in the action for the new

(e) The additional penalties provided for prior prison terms shall
not be imposed for any felony for which the defendant did not serve
a prior separate term in state prison or in county jail under

California law if the defendant served one year or more in prison for
the offense in the other jurisdiction.
(g) A prior separate prison term for the purposes of this section
shall mean a continuous completed period of prison incarceration
imposed for the particular offense alone or in combination with
concurrent or consecutive sentences for other crimes, including any
reimprisonment on revocation of parole which is not accompanied by a
new commitment to prison, and including any reimprisonment after an
escape from incarceration.
(h) Serving a prison term includes any confinement time in any
state prison or federal penal institution as punishment for
commission of an offense, including confinement in a hospital or
other institution or facility credited as service of prison time in
the jurisdiction of the confinement.
(i) For the purposes of this section, a commitment to the State
Department of Mental Health as a mentally disordered sex offender
following a conviction of a felony, which commitment exceeds one year
in duration, shall be deemed a prior prison term.
(j) For the purposes of this section, when a person subject to the
custody, control, and discipline of the Secretary of Corrections and
Rehabilitation is incarcerated at a facility operated by the
Division of Juvenile Justice, that incarceration shall be deemed to
be a term served in state prison.
(k) (1) Notwithstanding subdivisions (d) and (g) or any other
provision of law, where one of the new offenses is committed while
the defendant is temporarily removed from prison pursuant to Section
2690 or while the defendant is transferred to a community facility
pursuant to Section 3416, 6253, or 6263, or while the defendant is on
furlough pursuant to Section 6254, the defendant shall be subject to
the full enhancements provided for in this section.
(2) This subdivision shall not apply when a full, separate, and
consecutive term is imposed pursuant to any other provision of law.
SEC. 23. Section 669 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
669. (a) When a person is convicted of two or more crimes,
whether in the same proceeding or court or in different proceedings
or courts, and whether by judgment rendered by the same judge or by
different judges, the second or other subsequent judgment upon which
sentence is ordered to be executed shall direct whether the terms of
imprisonment or any of them to which he or she is sentenced shall run
concurrently or consecutively. Life sentences, whether with or
without the possibility of parole, may be imposed to run
consecutively with one another, with any term imposed for applicable
enhancements, or with any other term of imprisonment for a felony
conviction. Whenever a person is committed to prison on a life
sentence which is ordered to run consecutive to any determinate term
of imprisonment, the determinate term of imprisonment shall be served
first and no part thereof shall be credited toward the person's
eligibility for parole as calculated pursuant to Section 3046 or
pursuant to any other section of law that establishes a minimum
period of confinement under the life sentence before eligibility for
parole.
(b) In the event that the court at the time of pronouncing the
second or other judgment upon that person had no knowledge of a prior
existing judgment or judgments, or having knowledge, fails to
determine how the terms of imprisonment shall run in relation to each
other, then, upon that failure to determine, or upon that prior
judgment or judgments being brought to the attention of the court at
any time prior to the expiration of 60 days from and after the actual
commencement of imprisonment upon the second or other subsequent
judgments, the court shall, in the absence of the defendant and
within 60 days of the notice, determine how the term of imprisonment
upon the second or other subsequent judgment shall run with reference
to the prior incompleted term or terms of imprisonment. Upon the
failure of the court to determine how the terms of imprisonment on
the second or subsequent judgment shall run, the term of imprisonment
on the second or subsequent judgment shall run concurrently.
(c) The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation shall advise
the court pronouncing the second or other subsequent judgment of the
existence of all prior judgments against the defendant, the terms of
imprisonment of which have not been completely served.
(d) When a court imposes a concurrent term of imprisonment and
imprisonment for one of the crimes is required to be served in the
state prison, the term for all crimes shall be served in the state
prison, even if the term for any other offense specifies imprisonment
in a county jail pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170.
SEC. 24. Section 802 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
802. (a) Except as provided in subdivision (b), (c), or (d),

Business and Professions Code, within one year of the commission of
the offense.
(2) With respect to Sections 7027.1, 7028.1, 7028.15, 7118.4,

7159.14 (licensee only), 7161, and 7189 of the Business and
Professions Code, within two years of the commission of the offense.
(3) With respect to Sections 7027.3 and 7028.16 of the Business
and Professions Code, within three years of the commission of the
offense.
(4) With respect to Sections 7028, 7159.5 (nonlicensee only) and
7159.14 (nonlicensee only), of the Business and Professions Code,
within four years of the commission of the offense.
(e) This section shall become operative on July 1, 2005, only if
Senate Bill 30 of the 2003-04 Regular Session is enacted and becomes
effective on or before January 1, 2005.
SEC. 25. Section 830.5 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
830.5. The following persons are peace officers whose authority
extends to any place in the state while engaged in the performance of
the duties of their respective employment and for the purpose of
carrying out the primary function of their employment or as required
under Sections 8597, 8598, and 8617 of the Government Code, as

details" no later than June 30, 1995. This policy shall be
implemented no later than December 31, 1995.
(D) The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of
Juvenile Justice, shall train and arm those peace officers who
comprise tactical teams at each facility for use during "high-risk
escape details."

Juvenile Justice, a correctional officer or correctional counselor
employed by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, or an

the secretary. A parole officer of the Juvenile Parole Board may
carry a firearm while not on duty only when so authorized by the
chairperson of the board and only under the terms and conditions
specified by the chairperson. Nothing in this section shall be
interpreted to require licensure pursuant to Section 25400. The
director or chairperson may deny, suspend, or revoke for good cause a

person shall, upon request, receive a hearing, as provided for in the
negotiated grievance procedure between the exclusive employee

the director's or the chairperson's decision.
(d) Persons permitted to carry firearms pursuant to this section,
either on or off duty, shall meet the training requirements of
Section 832 and shall qualify with the firearm at least quarterly. It
is the responsibility of the individual officer or designee to
maintain his or her eligibility to carry concealable firearms off

designee with any concealable firearms carried off duty shall
constitute good cause to suspend or revoke that person's right to
carry firearms off duty.
(e) The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation shall allow
reasonable access to its ranges for officers and designees of either
department to qualify to carry concealable firearms off duty. The
time spent on the range for purposes of meeting the qualification

violence potential of the wards.
(h) "Transportation detail" as used in this section shall include
transportation of wards outside the facility, including, but not
limited to, court appearances, medical trips, and interfacility

(i) This section is operative January 1, 2012.
SEC. 26. Section 836.6 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
836.6. (a) It is unlawful for any person who is remanded by a
magistrate or judge of any court in this state to the custody of a
sheriff, marshal, or other police agency, to thereafter escape or
attempt to escape from that custody.
(b) It is unlawful for any person who has been lawfully arrested
by any peace officer and who knows, or by the exercise of reasonable
care should have known, that he or she has been so arrested, to
thereafter escape or attempt to escape from that peace officer.
(c) Any person who violates subdivision (a) or (b) is guilty of a
misdemeanor, punishable by imprisonment in a county jail not to
exceed one year. However, if the escape or attempted escape is by
force or violence, and the person proximately causes a peace officer
serious bodily injury, the person shall be punished by imprisonment
in the state prison for two, three, or four years, or by imprisonment
in a county jail not to exceed one year.
SEC. 27. Section 1170 of the Penal Code, as amended by Section 6.7
of Chapter 361 of the Statutes of 2011, is amended to read:
1170. (a) (1) The Legislature finds and declares that the purpose
of imprisonment for crime is punishment. This purpose is best served
by terms proportionate to the seriousness of the offense with
provision for uniformity in the sentences of offenders committing the
same offense under similar circumstances. The Legislature further
finds and declares that the elimination of disparity and the
provision of uniformity of sentences can best be achieved by
determinate sentences fixed by statute in proportion to the
seriousness of the offense as determined by the Legislature to be
imposed by the court with specified discretion.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), the Legislature further finds
and declares that programs should be available for inmates,
including, but not limited to, educational programs, that are
designed to prepare nonviolent felony offenders for successful
reentry into the community. The Legislature encourages the
development of policies and programs designed to educate and
rehabilitate nonviolent felony offenders. In implementing this
section, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is
encouraged to give priority enrollment in programs to promote
successful return to the community to an inmate with a short
remaining term of commitment and a release date that would allow him
or her adequate time to complete the program.
(3) In any case in which the punishment prescribed by statute for
a person convicted of a public offense is a term of imprisonment in
the state prison of any specification of three time periods, the
court shall sentence the defendant to one of the terms of
imprisonment specified unless the convicted person is given any other
disposition provided by law, including a fine, jail, probation, or
the suspension of imposition or execution of sentence or is sentenced
pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 1168 because he or she had
committed his or her crime prior to July 1, 1977. In sentencing the
convicted person, the court shall apply the sentencing rules of the
Judicial Council. The court, unless it determines that there are
circumstances in mitigation of the punishment prescribed, shall also
impose any other term that it is required by law to impose as an
additional term. Nothing in this article shall affect any provision
of law that imposes the death penalty, that authorizes or restricts
the granting of probation or suspending the execution or imposition
of sentence, or expressly provides for imprisonment in the state
prison for life. In any case in which the amount of preimprisonment
credit under Section 2900.5 or any other provision of law is equal to
or exceeds any sentence imposed pursuant to this chapter, the entire
sentence shall be deemed to have been served and the defendant shall
not be actually delivered to the custody of the secretary. The court
shall advise the defendant that he or she shall serve a period of
parole and order the defendant to report to the parole office closest
to the defendant's last legal residence, unless the in-custody
credits equal the total sentence, including both confinement time and
the period of parole. The sentence shall be deemed a separate prior
prison term under Section 667.5, and a copy of the judgment and other
necessary documentation shall be forwarded to the secretary.
(b) When a judgment of imprisonment is to be imposed and the
statute specifies three possible terms, the choice of the appropriate
term shall rest within the sound discretion of the court. At least
four days prior to the time set for imposition of judgment, either
party or the victim, or the family of the victim if the victim is
deceased, may submit a statement in aggravation or mitigation. In
determining the appropriate term, the court may consider the record
in the case, the probation officer's report, other reports, including
reports received pursuant to Section 1203.03, and statements in
aggravation or mitigation submitted by the prosecution, the
defendant, or the victim, or the family of the victim if the victim
is deceased, and any further evidence introduced at the sentencing
hearing. The court shall select the term which, in the court's
discretion, best serves the interests of justice. The court shall set
forth on the record the reasons for imposing the term selected and
the court may not impose an upper term by using the fact of any
enhancement upon which sentence is imposed under any provision of
law. A term of imprisonment shall not be specified if imposition of
sentence is suspended.
(c) The court shall state the reasons for its sentence choice on
the record at the time of sentencing. The court shall also inform the
defendant that as part of the sentence after expiration of the term
he or she may be on parole for a period as provided in Section 3000.
(d) When a defendant subject to this section or subdivision (b) of
Section 1168 has been sentenced to be imprisoned in the state prison
and has been committed to the custody of the secretary, the court
may, within 120 days of the date of commitment on its own motion, or
at any time upon the recommendation of the secretary or the Board of
Parole Hearings, recall the sentence and commitment previously
ordered and resentence the defendant in the same manner as if he or
she had not previously been sentenced, provided the new sentence, if
any, is no greater than the initial sentence. The resentence under
this subdivision shall apply the sentencing rules of the Judicial
Council so as to eliminate disparity of sentences and to promote
uniformity of sentencing. Credit shall be given for time served.
(e) (1) Notwithstanding any other law and consistent with
paragraph (1) of subdivision (a), if the secretary or the Board of
Parole Hearings or both determine that a prisoner satisfies the
criteria set forth in paragraph (2), the secretary or the board may
recommend to the court that the prisoner's sentence be recalled.
(2) The court shall have the discretion to resentence or recall if
the court finds that the facts described in subparagraphs (A) and
(B) or subparagraphs (B) and (C) exist:
(A) The prisoner is terminally ill with an incurable condition
caused by an illness or disease that would produce death within six
months, as determined by a physician employed by the department.
(B) The conditions under which the prisoner would be released or
receive treatment do not pose a threat to public safety.
(C) The prisoner is permanently medically incapacitated with a
medical condition that renders him or her permanently unable to
perform activities of basic daily living, and results in the prisoner
requiring 24-hour total care, including, but not limited to, coma,
persistent vegetative state, brain death, ventilator-dependency, loss
of control of muscular or neurological function, and that
incapacitation did not exist at the time of the original sentencing.
The Board of Parole Hearings shall make findings pursuant to this
subdivision before making a recommendation for resentence or recall
to the court. This subdivision does not apply to a prisoner sentenced
to death or a term of life without the possibility of parole.
(3) Within 10 days of receipt of a positive recommendation by the
secretary or the board, the court shall hold a hearing to consider
whether the prisoner's sentence should be recalled.
(4) Any physician employed by the department who determines that a
prisoner has six months or less to live shall notify the chief
medical officer of the prognosis. If the chief medical officer
concurs with the prognosis, he or she shall notify the warden. Within
48 hours of receiving notification, the warden or the warden's
representative shall notify the prisoner of the recall and
resentencing procedures, and shall arrange for the prisoner to
designate a family member or other outside agent to be notified as to
the prisoner's medical condition and prognosis, and as to the recall
and resentencing procedures. If the inmate is deemed mentally unfit,
the warden or the warden's representative shall contact the inmate's
emergency contact and provide the information described in paragraph
(2).
(5) The warden or the warden's representative shall provide the
prisoner and his or her family member, agent, or emergency contact,
as described in paragraph (4), updated information throughout the
recall and resentencing process with regard to the prisoner's medical
condition and the status of the prisoner's recall and resentencing
proceedings.
(6) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section, the
prisoner or his or her family member or designee may independently
request consideration for recall and resentencing by contacting the
chief medical officer at the prison or the secretary. Upon receipt of
the request, the chief medical officer and the warden or the warden'
s representative shall follow the procedures described in paragraph
(4). If the secretary determines that the prisoner satisfies the
criteria set forth in paragraph (2), the secretary or board may
recommend to the court that the prisoner's sentence be recalled. The
secretary shall submit a recommendation for release within 30 days in
the case of inmates sentenced to determinate terms and, in the case
of inmates sentenced to indeterminate terms, the secretary shall make
a recommendation to the Board of Parole Hearings with respect to the
inmates who have applied under this section. The board shall
consider this information and make an independent judgment pursuant
to paragraph (2) and make findings related thereto before rejecting
the request or making a recommendation to the court. This action
shall be taken at the next lawfully noticed board meeting.
(7) Any recommendation for recall submitted to the court by the
secretary or the Board of Parole Hearings shall include one or more
medical evaluations, a postrelease plan, and findings pursuant to
paragraph (2).
(8) If possible, the matter shall be heard before the same judge
of the court who sentenced the prisoner.
(9) If the court grants the recall and resentencing application,
the prisoner shall be released by the department within 48 hours of
receipt of the court's order, unless a longer time period is agreed
to by the inmate. At the time of release, the warden or the warden's
representative shall ensure that the prisoner has each of the
following in his or her possession: a discharge medical summary, full
medical records, state identification, parole medications, and all
property belonging to the prisoner. After discharge, any additional
records shall be sent to the prisoner's forwarding address.
(10) The secretary shall issue a directive to medical and
correctional staff employed by the department that details the
guidelines and procedures for initiating a recall and resentencing
procedure. The directive shall clearly state that any prisoner who is
given a prognosis of six months or less to live is eligible for
recall and resentencing consideration, and that recall and
resentencing procedures shall be initiated upon that prognosis.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, for
purposes of paragraph (3) of subdivision (h), any allegation that a
defendant is eligible for state prison due to a prior or current
conviction, sentence enhancement, or because he or she is required to
register as a sex offender shall not be subject to dismissal
pursuant to Section 1385.
(g) A sentence to state prison for a determinate term for which
only one term is specified, is a sentence to state prison under this
section.
(h) (1) Except as provided in paragraph (3), a felony punishable
pursuant to this subdivision where the term is not specified in the
underlying offense shall be punishable by a term of imprisonment in a
county jail for 16 months, or two or three years.
(2) Except as provided in paragraph (3), a felony punishable
pursuant to this subdivision shall be punishable by imprisonment in a
county jail for the term described in the underlying offense.
(3) Notwithstanding paragraphs (1) and (2), where the defendant
(A) has a prior or current felony conviction for a serious felony
described in subdivision (c) of Section 1192.7 or a prior or current
conviction for a violent felony described in subdivision (c) of
Section 667.5, (B) has a prior felony conviction in another
jurisdiction for an offense that has all the elements of a serious
felony described in subdivision (c) of Section 1192.7 or a violent
felony described in subdivision (c) of Section 667.5, (C) is required
to register as a sex offender pursuant to Chapter 5.5 (commencing
with Section 290) of Title 9 of Part 1, or (D) is convicted of a
crime and as part of the sentence an enhancement pursuant to Section
186.11 is imposed, an executed sentence for a felony punishable
pursuant to this subdivision shall be served in state prison.
(4) Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to prevent
other dispositions authorized by law, including pretrial diversion,
deferred entry of judgment, or an order granting probation pursuant
to Section 1203.1.
(5) The court, when imposing a sentence pursuant to paragraph (1)
or (2) of this subdivision, may commit the defendant to county jail
as follows:
(A) For a full term in custody as determined in accordance with
the applicable sentencing law.
(B) (i) For a term as determined in accordance with the applicable
sentencing law, but suspend execution of a concluding portion of the
term selected in the court's discretion, during which time the
defendant shall be supervised by the county probation officer in
accordance with the terms, conditions, and procedures generally
applicable to persons placed on probation, for the remaining unserved
portion of the sentence imposed by the court. The period of
supervision shall be mandatory, and may not be earlier terminated
except by court order. Any proceeding to revoke or modify mandatory
supervision under this subparagraph shall be conducted pursuant to
either subdivisions (a) and (b) of Section 1203.2 or Section 1203.3.
During the period when the defendant is under such supervision,
unless in actual custody related to the sentence imposed by the
court, the defendant shall be entitled to only actual time credit
against the term of imprisonment imposed by the court. Any time
period which is suspended because a person has absconded shall not be
credited toward the period of supervision.
(ii) The portion of a defendant's sentenced term during which time
he or she is supervised by the county probation officer pursuant to
this subparagraph shall be known as mandatory supervision.
(6) The sentencing changes made by the act that added this
subdivision shall be applied prospectively to any person sentenced on
or after October 1, 2011.
(i) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1,
2014, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted
statute, that is enacted before that date, deletes or extends that
date.
SEC. 28. Section 1170 of the Penal Code, as amended by Section 7.7
of Chapter 361 of the Statutes of 2011, is amended to read:
1170. (a) (1) The Legislature finds and declares that the purpose
of imprisonment for crime is punishment. This purpose is best served
by terms proportionate to the seriousness of the offense with
provision for uniformity in the sentences of offenders committing the
same offense under similar circumstances. The Legislature further
finds and declares that the elimination of disparity and the
provision of uniformity of sentences can best be achieved by
determinate sentences fixed by statute in proportion to the
seriousness of the offense as determined by the Legislature to be
imposed by the court with specified discretion.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), the Legislature further finds
and declares that programs should be available for inmates,
including, but not limited to, educational programs, that are
designed to prepare nonviolent felony offenders for successful
reentry into the community. The Legislature encourages the
development of policies and programs designed to educate and
rehabilitate nonviolent felony offenders. In implementing this
section, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is
encouraged to give priority enrollment in programs to promote
successful return to the community to an inmate with a short
remaining term of commitment and a release date that would allow him
or her adequate time to complete the program.
(3) In any case in which the punishment prescribed by statute for
a person convicted of a public offense is a term of imprisonment in
the state prison of any specification of three time periods, the
court shall sentence the defendant to one of the terms of
imprisonment specified unless the convicted person is given any other
disposition provided by law, including a fine, jail, probation, or
the suspension of imposition or execution of sentence or is sentenced
pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 1168 because he or she had
committed his or her crime prior to July 1, 1977. In sentencing the
convicted person, the court shall apply the sentencing rules of the
Judicial Council. The court, unless it determines that there are
circumstances in mitigation of the punishment prescribed, shall also
impose any other term that it is required by law to impose as an
additional term. Nothing in this article shall affect any provision
of law that imposes the death
penalty, that authorizes or restricts the granting of
probation or suspending the execution or imposition of sentence, or
expressly provides for imprisonment in the state prison for life. In
any case in which the amount of preimprisonment credit under Section
2900.5 or any other provision of law is equal to or exceeds any
sentence imposed pursuant to this chapter, the entire sentence shall
be deemed to have been served and the defendant shall not be actually
delivered to the custody of the secretary. The court shall advise
the defendant that he or she shall serve a period of parole and order
the defendant to report to the parole office closest to the
defendant's last legal residence, unless the in-custody credits equal
the total sentence, including both confinement time and the period
of parole. The sentence shall be deemed a separate prior prison term
under Section 667.5, and a copy of the judgment and other necessary
documentation shall be forwarded to the secretary.
(b) When a judgment of imprisonment is to be imposed and the
statute specifies three possible terms, the court shall order
imposition of the middle term, unless there are circumstances in
aggravation or mitigation of the crime. At least four days prior to
the time set for imposition of judgment, either party or the victim,
or the family of the victim if the victim is deceased, may submit a
statement in aggravation or mitigation to dispute facts in the record
or the probation officer's report, or to present additional facts.
In determining whether there are circumstances that justify
imposition of the upper or lower term, the court may consider the
record in the case, the probation officer's report, other reports,
including reports received pursuant to Section 1203.03, and
statements in aggravation or mitigation submitted by the prosecution,
the defendant, or the victim, or the family of the victim if the
victim is deceased, and any further evidence introduced at the
sentencing hearing. The court shall set forth on the record the facts
and reasons for imposing the upper or lower term. The court may not
impose an upper term by using the fact of any enhancement upon which
sentence is imposed under any provision of law. A term of
imprisonment shall not be specified if imposition of sentence is
suspended.
(c) The court shall state the reasons for its sentence choice on
the record at the time of sentencing. The court shall also inform the
defendant that as part of the sentence after expiration of the term
he or she may be on parole for a period as provided in Section 3000.
(d) When a defendant subject to this section or subdivision (b) of
Section 1168 has been sentenced to be imprisoned in the state prison
and has been committed to the custody of the secretary, the court
may, within 120 days of the date of commitment on its own motion, or
at any time upon the recommendation of the secretary or the Board of
Parole Hearings, recall the sentence and commitment previously
ordered and resentence the defendant in the same manner as if he or
she had not previously been sentenced, provided the new sentence, if
any, is no greater than the initial sentence. The resentence under
this subdivision shall apply the sentencing rules of the Judicial
Council so as to eliminate disparity of sentences and to promote
uniformity of sentencing. Credit shall be given for time served.
(e) (1) Notwithstanding any other law and consistent with
paragraph (1) of subdivision (a), if the secretary or the Board of
Parole Hearings or both determine that a prisoner satisfies the
criteria set forth in paragraph (2), the secretary or the board may
recommend to the court that the prisoner's sentence be recalled.
(2) The court shall have the discretion to resentence or recall if
the court finds that the facts described in subparagraphs (A) and
(B) or subparagraphs (B) and (C) exist:
(A) The prisoner is terminally ill with an incurable condition
caused by an illness or disease that would produce death within six
months, as determined by a physician employed by the department.
(B) The conditions under which the prisoner would be released or
receive treatment do not pose a threat to public safety.
(C) The prisoner is permanently medically incapacitated with a
medical condition that renders him or her permanently unable to
perform activities of basic daily living, and results in the prisoner
requiring 24-hour total care, including, but not limited to, coma,
persistent vegetative state, brain death, ventilator-dependency, loss
of control of muscular or neurological function, and that
incapacitation did not exist at the time of the original sentencing.
The Board of Parole Hearings shall make findings pursuant to this
subdivision before making a recommendation for resentence or recall
to the court. This subdivision does not apply to a prisoner sentenced
to death or a term of life without the possibility of parole.
(3) Within 10 days of receipt of a positive recommendation by the
secretary or the board, the court shall hold a hearing to consider
whether the prisoner's sentence should be recalled.
(4) Any physician employed by the department who determines that a
prisoner has six months or less to live shall notify the chief
medical officer of the prognosis. If the chief medical officer
concurs with the prognosis, he or she shall notify the warden. Within
48 hours of receiving notification, the warden or the warden's
representative shall notify the prisoner of the recall and
resentencing procedures, and shall arrange for the prisoner to
designate a family member or other outside agent to be notified as to
the prisoner's medical condition and prognosis, and as to the recall
and resentencing procedures. If the inmate is deemed mentally unfit,
the warden or the warden's representative shall contact the inmate's
emergency contact and provide the information described in paragraph
(2).
(5) The warden or the warden's representative shall provide the
prisoner and his or her family member, agent, or emergency contact,
as described in paragraph (4), updated information throughout the
recall and resentencing process with regard to the prisoner's medical
condition and the status of the prisoner's recall and resentencing
proceedings.
(6) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section, the
prisoner or his or her family member or designee may independently
request consideration for recall and resentencing by contacting the
chief medical officer at the prison or the secretary. Upon receipt of
the request, the chief medical officer and the warden or the warden'
s representative shall follow the procedures described in paragraph
(4). If the secretary determines that the prisoner satisfies the
criteria set forth in paragraph (2), the secretary or board may
recommend to the court that the prisoner's sentence be recalled. The
secretary shall submit a recommendation for release within 30 days in
the case of inmates sentenced to determinate terms and, in the case
of inmates sentenced to indeterminate terms, the secretary shall make
a recommendation to the Board of Parole Hearings with respect to the
inmates who have applied under this section. The board shall
consider this information and make an independent judgment pursuant
to paragraph (2) and make findings related thereto before rejecting
the request or making a recommendation to the court. This action
shall be taken at the next lawfully noticed board meeting.
(7) Any recommendation for recall submitted to the court by the
secretary or the Board of Parole Hearings shall include one or more
medical evaluations, a postrelease plan, and findings pursuant to
paragraph (2).
(8) If possible, the matter shall be heard before the same judge
of the court who sentenced the prisoner.
(9) If the court grants the recall and resentencing application,
the prisoner shall be released by the department within 48 hours of
receipt of the court's order, unless a longer time period is agreed
to by the inmate. At the time of release, the warden or the warden's
representative shall ensure that the prisoner has each of the
following in his or her possession: a discharge medical summary, full
medical records, state identification, parole medications, and all
property belonging to the prisoner. After discharge, any additional
records shall be sent to the prisoner's forwarding address.
(10) The secretary shall issue a directive to medical and
correctional staff employed by the department that details the
guidelines and procedures for initiating a recall and resentencing
procedure. The directive shall clearly state that any prisoner who is
given a prognosis of six months or less to live is eligible for
recall and resentencing consideration, and that recall and
resentencing procedures shall be initiated upon that prognosis.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, for
purposes of paragraph (3) of subdivision (h), any allegation that a
defendant is eligible for state prison due to a prior or current
conviction, sentence enhancement, or because he or she is required to
register as a sex offender shall not be subject to dismissal
pursuant to Section 1385.
(g) A sentence to state prison for a determinate term for which
only one term is specified, is a sentence to state prison under this
section.
(h) (1) Except as provided in paragraph (3), a felony punishable
pursuant to this subdivision where the term is not specified in the
underlying offense shall be punishable by a term of imprisonment in a
county jail for 16 months, or two or three years.
(2) Except as provided in paragraph (3), a felony punishable
pursuant to this subdivision shall be punishable by imprisonment in a
county jail for the term described in the underlying offense.
(3) Notwithstanding paragraphs (1) and (2), where the defendant
(A) has a prior or current felony conviction for a serious felony
described in subdivision (c) of Section 1192.7 or a prior or current
conviction for a violent felony described in subdivision (c) of
Section 667.5, (B) has a prior felony conviction in another
jurisdiction for an offense that has all the elements of a serious
felony described in subdivision (c) of Section 1192.7 or a violent
felony described in subdivision (c) of Section 667.5, (C) is required
to register as a sex offender pursuant to Chapter 5.5 (commencing
with Section 290) of Title 9 of Part 1, or (D) is convicted of a
crime and as part of the sentence an enhancement pursuant to Section
186.11 is imposed, an executed sentence for a felony punishable
pursuant to this subdivision shall be served in state prison.
(4) Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to prevent
other dispositions authorized by law, including pretrial diversion,
deferred entry of judgment, or an order granting probation pursuant
to Section 1203.1.
(5) The court, when imposing a sentence pursuant to paragraph (1)
or (2) of this subdivision, may commit the defendant to county jail
as follows:
(A) For a full term in custody as determined in accordance with
the applicable sentencing law.
(B) (i) For a term as determined in accordance with the applicable
sentencing law, but suspend execution of a concluding portion of the
term selected in the court's discretion, during which time the
defendant shall be supervised by the county probation officer in
accordance with the terms, conditions, and procedures generally
applicable to persons placed on probation, for the remaining unserved
portion of the sentence imposed by the court. The period of
supervision shall be mandatory, and may not be earlier terminated
except by court order. Any proceeding to revoke or modify mandatory
supervision under this subparagraph shall be conducted pursuant to
either subdivisions (a) and (b) of Section 1203.2 or Section 1203.3.
During the period when the defendant is under such supervision,
unless in actual custody related to the sentence imposed by the
court, the defendant shall be entitled to only actual time credit
against the term of imprisonment imposed by the court. Any time
period which is suspended because a person has absconded shall not be
credited toward the period of supervision.
(ii) The portion of a defendant's sentenced term during which time
he or she is supervised by the county probation officer pursuant to
this subparagraph shall be known as mandatory supervision.
(6) The sentencing changes made by the act that added this
subdivision shall be applied prospectively to any person sentenced on
or after October 1, 2011.
(i) This section shall become operative on January 1, 2014.
SEC. 29. Section 1203.018 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
1203.018. (a) Notwithstanding any other law, this section shall
only apply to inmates being held in lieu of bail and on no other
basis.
(b) Notwithstanding any other law, the board of supervisors of any
county may authorize the correctional administrator, as defined in
paragraph (1) of subdivision (k), to offer a program under which
inmates being held in lieu of bail in a county jail or other county
correctional facility may participate in an electronic monitoring
program if the conditions specified in subdivision (c) are met.
(c) (1) In order to qualify for participation in an electronic
monitoring program pursuant to this section, the inmate must be an
inmate with no holds or outstanding warrants to whom one of the
following circumstances applies:
(A) The inmate has been held in custody for at least 30 calendar
days from the date of arraignment pending disposition of only
misdemeanor charges.
(B) The inmate has been held in custody pending disposition of
charges for at least 60 calendar days from the date of arraignment.
(C) The inmate is appropriate for the program based on a
determination by the correctional administrator that the inmate's
participation would be consistent with the public safety interests of
the community.
(2) All participants shall be subject to discretionary review for
eligibility and compliance by the correctional administrator
consistent with this section.
(d) The board of supervisors, after consulting with the sheriff
and district attorney, may prescribe reasonable rules and regulations
under which an electronic monitoring program pursuant to this
section may operate. As a condition of participation in the
electronic monitoring program, the participant shall give his or her
consent in writing to participate and shall agree in writing to
comply with the rules and regulations of the program, including, but
not limited to, all of the following:
(1) The participant shall remain within the interior premises of
his or her residence during the hours designated by the correctional
administrator.
(2) The participant shall admit any person or agent designated by
the correctional administrator into his or her residence at any time
for purposes of verifying the participant's compliance with the
conditions of his or her detention.
(3) The electronic monitoring may include global positioning
system devices or other supervising devices for the purpose of
helping to verify the participant's compliance with the rules and
regulations of the electronic monitoring program. The electronic

except a conversation between the participant and the person
supervising the participant to be used solely for the purposes of
voice identification.
(4) The correctional administrator in charge of the county
correctional facility from which the participant was released may,
without further order of the court, immediately retake the person
into custody if the electronic monitoring or supervising devices are
unable for any reason to properly perform their function at the
designated place of home detention, if the person fails to remain
within the place of home detention as stipulated in the agreement, if
the person willfully fails to pay fees to the provider of electronic
home detention services, as stipulated in the agreement, subsequent
to the written notification of the participant that the payment has
not been received and that return to custody may result, or if the
person for any other reason no longer meets the established criteria
under this section.
(5) A copy of the signed consent to participate and a copy of the
agreement to comply with the rules and regulations shall be provided
to the participant and a copy shall be retained by the correctional
administrator.
(e) The rules and regulations and administrative policy of the
program shall be reviewed on an annual basis by the county board of
supervisors and the correctional administrator. The rules and
regulations shall be given to every participant.
(f) Whenever the peace officer supervising a participant has
reasonable cause to believe that the participant is not complying
with the rules or conditions of the program, or that the electronic
monitoring devices are unable to function properly in the designated
place of confinement, the peace officer may, under general or
specific authorization of the correctional administrator, and without
a warrant of arrest, retake the person into custody.
(g) (1) Nothing in this section shall be construed to require the
correctional administrator to allow a person to participate in this
program if it appears from the record that the person has not
satisfactorily complied with reasonable rules and regulations while
in custody. A person shall be eligible for participation in an
electronic monitoring program only if the correctional administrator
concludes that the person meets the criteria for release established
under this section and that the person's participation is consistent
with any reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by the board of
supervisors or the administrative policy of the correctional
administrator.
(2) The correctional administrator, or his or her designee, shall
have discretionary authority consistent with this section to permit
program participation as an alternative to physical custody. All
persons approved by the correctional administrator to participate in
the electronic monitoring program pursuant to subdivision (c) who are
denied participation and all persons removed from program
participation shall be notified in writing of the specific reasons
for the denial or removal. The notice of denial or removal shall
include the participant's appeal rights, as established by program
administrative policy.
(h) The correctional administrator may permit electronic
monitoring program participants to seek and retain employment in the
community, attend psychological counseling sessions or educational or
vocational training classes, or seek medical and dental assistance.
(i) Willful failure of the program participant to return to the
place of home detention prior to the expiration of any period of time
during which he or she is authorized to be away from the place of
home detention pursuant to this section and unauthorized departures
from the place of home detention is punishable pursuant to Section
4532.
(j) The board of supervisors may prescribe a program
administrative fee to be paid by each electronic monitoring

(k) For purposes of this section, the following terms have the
following meanings:
(1) "Correctional administrator" means the sheriff, probation
officer, or director of the county department of corrections.
(2) "Electronic monitoring program" includes, but is not limited
to, home detention programs, work furlough programs, and work release
programs.
( l ) Notwithstanding any other law, upon request of a
local law enforcement agency with jurisdiction over the location
where a participant in an electronic monitoring program is placed,
the correctional administrator shall provide the following
information regarding participants in the electronic monitoring
program:
(1) The participant's name, address, and date of birth.

programs established under this section maintain the highest public
confidence, credibility, and public safety. In the furtherance of
these standards, the following shall apply:
(1) The correctional administrator, with the approval of the board
of supervisors, may administer an electronic monitoring program as
provided in this section pursuant to written contracts with
appropriate public or private agencies or entities to provide
specified program services. No public or private agency or entity may
operate a home detention program pursuant to this section in any
county without a written contract with that county's correctional
administrator. No public or private agency or entity entering into a
contract pursuant to this subdivision may itself employ any person
who is in the electronic monitoring program.
(2) Program participants shall undergo the normal booking process
for arrestees entering the jail. All electronic monitoring program
participants shall be supervised.
(3) (A) All privately operated electronic monitoring programs
shall be under the jurisdiction of, and subject to the terms and
conditions of the contract entered into with, the correctional
administrator.
(B) Each contract specified in subparagraph (A) shall include, but
not be limited to, all of the following:
(i) A provision whereby the private agency or entity agrees to
operate in compliance with any available standards and all state and
county laws applicable to the operation of electronic monitoring
programs and the supervision of offenders in an electronic monitoring
program.
(ii) A provision that clearly defines areas of respective
responsibility and liability of the county and the private agency or
entity.
(iii) A provision that requires the private agency or entity to
demonstrate evidence of financial responsibility, submitted to and
approved by the board of supervisors, in amounts and under conditions
sufficient to fully indemnify the county for reasonably foreseeable
public liability, including legal defense costs that may arise from,
or be proximately caused by, acts or omissions of the contractor.
(iv) A provision that requires the private agency or entity to
provide evidence of financial responsibility, such as certificates of
insurance or copies of insurance policies, prior to commencing any
operations pursuant to the contract or at any time requested by the
board of supervisors or correctional administrator.
(v) A provision that requires an annual review by the correctional
administrator to ensure compliance with requirements set by the
board of supervisors and for adjustment of the financial
responsibility requirements if warranted by caseload changes or other
factors.
(vi) A provision that permits the correctional administrator to
immediately terminate the contract with a private agency or entity at
any time that the contractor fails to demonstrate evidence of
financial responsibility.
(C) All privately operated electronic monitoring programs shall
comply with all applicable ordinances and regulations specified in
subdivision (a) of Section 1208.
(D) The board of supervisors, the correctional administrator, and
the designee of the correctional administrator shall comply with
Section 1090 of the Government Code in the consideration, making, and
execution of contracts pursuant to this section.
(E) The failure of the private agency or entity to comply with
state or county laws or with the standards established by the
contract with the correctional administrator shall constitute cause
to terminate the contract.
(F) Upon the discovery that a private agency or entity with which
there is a contract is not in compliance with this paragraph, the
correctional administrator shall give 60 days' notice to the director
of the private agency or entity that the contract may be canceled if
the specified deficiencies are not corrected.
(G) Shorter notice may be given or the contract may be canceled
without notice whenever a serious threat to public safety is present
because the private agency or entity has failed to comply with this
section.
(H) For purposes of this section, "evidence of financial
responsibility" may include, but is not limited to, certified copies
of any of the following:
(i) A current liability insurance policy.
(ii) A current errors and omissions insurance policy.
(iii) A surety bond.
SEC. 30. Section 1203.2 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
1203.2. (a) At any time during the period of supervision of a
person (1) released on probation under the care of a probation
officer pursuant to this chapter, (2) released on conditional
sentence or summary probation not under the care of a probation
officer, (3) placed on mandatory supervision pursuant to subparagraph
(B) of paragraph (5) of subdivision (h) of Section 1170, (4) subject
to revocation of postrelease community supervision pursuant to
Section 3455, or (5) subject to revocation of parole supervision
pursuant to Section 3000.08, if any probation officer, parole
officer, or peace officer has probable cause to believe that the
supervised person is violating any term or condition of his or her
supervision, the officer may, without warrant or other process and at
any time until the final disposition of the case, rearrest the
supervised person and bring him or her before the court or the court
may, in its discretion, issue a warrant for his or her rearrest. Upon
such rearrest, or upon the issuance of a warrant for rearrest the
court may revoke and terminate the supervision of the person if the
interests of justice so require and the court, in its judgment, has
reason to believe from the report of the probation or parole officer
or otherwise that the person has violated any of the conditions of
his or her supervision, has become abandoned to improper associates
or a vicious life, or has subsequently committed other offenses,
regardless whether he or she has been prosecuted for such offenses.
However, the court shall not terminate parole pursuant to this
section. Supervision shall not be revoked for failure of a person to
make restitution imposed
as a condition of supervision unless the court determines that the
defendant has willfully failed to pay and has the ability to pay.
Restitution shall be consistent with a person's ability to pay. The
revocation, summary or otherwise, shall serve to toll the running of
the period of supervision.
(b) (1) Upon its own motion or upon the petition of the supervised
person, the probation or parole officer or the district attorney of
the county in which the person is supervised, the court may modify,
revoke, or terminate supervision of the person pursuant to this
subdivision, except that the court shall not terminate parole
pursuant to this section. A person supervised on parole or
postrelease community supervision pursuant to Section 3455 may not
petition the court pursuant to this section for early release from
supervision, and a petition under this section shall not be filed
solely for the purpose of modifying parole. Nothing in this section
shall prohibit the court from modifying parole when acting on its own
motion or a petition to revoke parole. The court shall give notice
of its motion, and the probation or parole officer or the district
attorney shall give notice of his or her petition to the supervised
person, his or her attorney of record, and the district attorney or
the probation or parole officer, as the case may be. The supervised
person shall give notice of his or her petition to the probation or
parole officer and notice of any motion or petition shall be given to
the district attorney in all cases. The court shall refer its motion
or the petition to the probation or parole officer. After the
receipt of a written report from the probation or parole officer, the
court shall read and consider the report and either its motion or
the petition and may modify, revoke, or terminate the supervision of
the supervised person upon the grounds set forth in subdivision (a)
if the interests of justice so require.
(2) The notice required by this subdivision may be given to the
supervised person upon his or her first court appearance in the
proceeding. Upon the agreement by the supervised person in writing to
the specific terms of a modification or termination of a specific
term of supervision, any requirement that the supervised person make
a personal appearance in court for the purpose of a modification or
termination shall be waived. Prior to the modification or termination
and waiver of appearance, the supervised person shall be informed of
his or her right to consult with counsel, and if indigent the right
to secure court appointed counsel. If the supervised person waives
his or her right to counsel a written waiver shall be required. If
the supervised person consults with counsel and thereafter agrees to
a modification, revocation, or termination of the term of supervision
and waiver of personal appearance, the agreement shall be signed by
counsel showing approval for the modification or termination and
waiver.
(c) Upon any revocation and termination of probation the court
may, if the sentence has been suspended, pronounce judgment for any
time within the longest period for which the person might have been
sentenced. However, if the judgment has been pronounced and the
execution thereof has been suspended, the court may revoke the
suspension and order that the judgment shall be in full force and
effect. In either case, the person shall be delivered over to the
proper officer to serve his or her sentence, less any credits herein
provided for.
(d) In any case of revocation and termination of probation,
including, but not limited to, cases in which the judgment has been
pronounced and the execution thereof has been suspended, upon the
revocation and termination, the court may, in lieu of any other
sentence, commit the person to the Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities if he or she is
otherwise eligible for such commitment.
(e) If probation has been revoked before the judgment has been
pronounced, the order revoking probation may be set aside for good
cause upon motion made before pronouncement of judgment. If probation
has been revoked after the judgment has been pronounced, the
judgment and the order which revoked the probation may be set aside
for good cause within 30 days after the court has notice that the
execution of the sentence has commenced. If an order setting aside
the judgment, the revocation of probation, or both is made after the
expiration of the probationary period, the court may again place the
person on probation for that period and with those terms and
conditions as it could have done immediately following conviction.
(f) As used in this section, the following definitions shall
apply:
(1) "Court" means a judge, magistrate, or revocation hearing
officer described in Section 71622.5 of the Government Code.
(2) "Probation officer" means a probation officer as described in
Section 1203 or an officer of the agency designated by the board of
supervisors of a county to implement postrelease community

(3) "Supervised person" means a person who satisfies any of the
following:
(A) He or she is released on probation subject to the supervision
of a probation officer.
(B) He or she is released on conditional sentence or summary
probation not under the care of a probation officer.
(C) He or she is subject to mandatory supervision pursuant to
subparagraph (B) of paragraph (5) of subdivision (h) of Section 1170.
(D) He or she is subject to revocation of postrelease community
supervision pursuant to Section 3455.
(E) He or she is subject to revocation of parole pursuant to
Section 3000.08.
(g) Nothing in this section affects the authority of the
supervising agency to impose intermediate sanctions, including flash
incarceration, to persons supervised on parole pursuant to Section
3000.8 or postrelease community supervision pursuant to Part 3
(commencing with Section 3450) of Title 2.05.
SEC. 31. Section 1203.3 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
1203.3. (a) The court shall have authority at any time during the
term of probation to revoke, modify, or change its order of
suspension of imposition or execution of sentence. The court may at
any time when the ends of justice will be subserved thereby, and when
the good conduct and reform of the person so held on probation shall
warrant it, terminate the period of probation, and discharge the
person so held. The court shall also have the authority at any time
during the term of mandatory supervision pursuant to subparagraph (B)
of paragraph (5) of subdivision (h) of Section 1170 to revoke,
modify, or change the conditions of the court's order suspending the
execution of the concluding portion of the supervised person's term.
(b) The exercise of the court's authority in subdivision (a) to
revoke, modify, or change probation or mandatory supervision, or to
terminate probation, is subject to the following:
(1) Before any sentence or term or condition of probation or
condition of mandatory supervision is modified, a hearing shall be
held in open court before the judge. The prosecuting attorney shall
be given a two-day written notice and an opportunity to be heard on
the matter, except that, as to modifying or terminating a protective
order in a case involving domestic violence, as defined in Section
6211 of the Family Code, the prosecuting attorney shall be given a
five-day written notice and an opportunity to be heard.
(A) If the sentence or term or condition of probation or the term
or any condition of mandatory supervision is modified pursuant to
this section, the judge shall state the reasons for that modification
on the record.
(B) As used in this section, modification of sentence shall
include reducing a felony to a misdemeanor.
(2) No order shall be made without written notice first given by
the court or the clerk thereof to the proper probation officer of the
intention to revoke, modify, or change its order.
(3) In all probation cases, if the court has not seen fit to
revoke the order of probation and impose sentence or pronounce
judgment, the defendant shall at the end of the term of probation or
any extension thereof, be by the court discharged subject to the
provisions of these sections.
(4) The court may modify the time and manner of the term of
probation for purposes of measuring the timely payment of restitution
obligations or the good conduct and reform of the defendant while on
probation. The court shall not modify the dollar amount of the
restitution obligations due to the good conduct and reform of the
defendant, absent compelling and extraordinary reasons, nor shall the
court limit the ability of payees to enforce the obligations in the
manner of judgments in civil actions.
(5) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the
court from modifying the dollar amount of a restitution order
pursuant to subdivision (f) of Section 1202.4 at any time during the
term of the probation.
(6) The court may limit or terminate a protective order that is a
condition of probation or mandatory supervision in a case involving
domestic violence, as defined in Section 6211 of the Family Code. In
determining whether to limit or terminate the protective order, the
court shall consider if there has been any material change in
circumstances since the crime for which the order was issued, and any
issue that relates to whether there exists good cause for the
change, including, but not limited to, consideration of all of the
following:
(A) Whether the probationer or supervised person has accepted
responsibility for the abusive behavior perpetrated against the
victim.
(B) Whether the probationer or supervised person is currently
attending and actively participating in counseling sessions.
(C) Whether the probationer or supervised person has completed
parenting counseling, or attended alcoholics or narcotics counseling.
(D) Whether the probationer or supervised person has moved from
the state, or is incarcerated.
(E) Whether the probationer or supervised person is still
cohabiting, or intends to cohabit, with any subject of the order.
(F) Whether the defendant has performed well on probation or
mandatory supervision, including consideration of any progress
reports.
(G) Whether the victim desires the change, and if so, the victim's
reasons, whether the victim has consulted a victim advocate, and
whether the victim has prepared a safety plan and has access to local
resources.
(H) Whether the change will impact any children involved,
including consideration of any child protective services information.
(I) Whether the ends of justice would be served by limiting or
terminating the order.
(c) If a probationer is ordered to serve time in jail, and the
probationer escapes while serving that time, the probation is revoked
as a matter of law on the day of the escape.
(d) If probation is revoked pursuant to subdivision (c), upon
taking the probationer into custody, the probationer shall be
accorded a hearing or hearings consistent with the holding in the
case of People v. Vickers (1972) 8 Cal.3d 451. The purpose of that
hearing or hearings is not to revoke probation, as the revocation has
occurred as a matter of law in accordance with subdivision (c), but
rather to afford the defendant an opportunity to require the
prosecution to establish that the alleged violation did in fact occur
and to justify the revocation.
(e) This section does not apply to cases covered by Section
1203.2.
SEC. 32. Section 1203.9 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
1203.9. (a) Whenever a person is released on probation or
mandatory supervision, the court, upon noticed motion, shall transfer
the case to the superior court in any other county in which the
person resides permanently, meaning with the stated intention to
remain for the duration of probation or mandatory supervision, unless
the transferring court determines that the transfer would be
inappropriate and states its reasons on the record. Upon notice of
the motion for transfer, the court of the proposed receiving county
may provide comments for the record regarding the proposed transfer,
following procedures set forth in rules of court developed by the
Judicial Council for this purpose, pursuant to subdivision (e). The
court and the probation department shall give the matter of
investigating those transfers precedence over all actions or
proceedings therein, except actions or proceedings to which special
precedence is given by law, to the end that all those transfers shall
be completed expeditiously.
(b) The court of the receiving county shall accept the entire
jurisdiction over the case.
(c) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), whenever a person is granted
probation under Section 1210.1, the sentencing court shall transfer
jurisdiction of the entire case, upon a finding by the receiving
court of the person's permanent residency in the receiving county,
unless there is a determination on the record that the transfer would
be inappropriate.
(d) The order of transfer shall contain an order committing the
probationer or supervised person to the care and custody of the
probation officer of the receiving county and, if applicable, an
order for reimbursement of reasonable costs for processing the
transfer to be paid to the sending county in accordance with Section
1203.1b. A copy of the orders and any probation reports shall be
transmitted to the court and probation officer of the receiving
county within two weeks of the finding that the person does
permanently reside in or has permanently moved to that county, and
thereafter the receiving court shall have entire jurisdiction over
the case, with the like power to again request transfer of the case
whenever it seems proper.
(e) The Judicial Council shall promulgate rules of court for
procedures by which the proposed receiving county shall receive
notice of the motion for transfer and by which responsive comments
may be transmitted to the court of the transferring county. The
Judicial Council shall adopt rules providing factors for the court's
consideration when determining the appropriateness of a transfer,
including, but not limited to, the following:
(1) Permanency of residence of the offender.
(2) Local programs available for the offender.
(3) Restitution orders and victim issues.
SEC. 33. Section 3000 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
3000. (a) (1) The Legislature finds and declares that the period
immediately following incarceration is critical to successful
reintegration of the offender into society and to positive
citizenship. It is in the interest of public safety for the state to
provide for the effective supervision of and surveillance of
parolees, including the judicious use of revocation actions, and to
provide educational, vocational, family and personal counseling
necessary to assist parolees in the transition between imprisonment
and discharge. A sentence resulting in imprisonment in the state
prison pursuant to Section 1168 or 1170 shall include a period of
parole supervision or postrelease community supervision, unless
waived, or as otherwise provided in this article.
(2) The Legislature finds and declares that it is not the intent
of this section to diminish resources allocated to the Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation for parole functions for which the
department is responsible. It is also not the intent of this section
to diminish the resources allocated to the Board of Parole Hearings
to execute its duties with respect to parole functions for which the
board is responsible.
(3) The Legislature finds and declares that diligent effort must
be made to ensure that parolees are held accountable for their
criminal behavior, including, but not limited to, the satisfaction of
restitution fines and orders.
(4) For any person subject to a sexually violent predator
proceeding pursuant to Article 4 (commencing with Section 6600) of
Chapter 2 of Part 2 of Division 6 of the Welfare and Institutions
Code, an order issued by a judge pursuant to Section 6601.5 of the
Welfare and Institutions Code, finding that the petition, on its
face, supports a finding of probable cause to believe that the
individual named in the petition is likely to engage in sexually
violent predatory criminal behavior upon his or her release, shall
toll the period of parole of that person, from the date that person
is released by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation as
follows:
(A) If the person is committed to the State Department of Mental
Health as a sexually violent predator and subsequently a court orders
that the person be unconditionally discharged, the parole period
shall be tolled until the date the judge enters the order
unconditionally discharging that person.
(B) If the person is not committed to the State Department of
Mental Health as a sexually violent predator, the tolling of the
parole period shall be abrogated and the parole period shall be
deemed to have commenced on the date of release from the Department
of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
(5) Paragraph (4) applies to persons released by the Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation on or after January 1, 2012. Persons
released by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation prior to
January 1, 2012, shall continue to be subject to the law governing
the tolling of parole in effect on December 31, 2011.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Article 3
(commencing with Section 3040) of this chapter, the following shall
apply to any inmate subject to Section 3000.08:
(1) In the case of any inmate sentenced under Section 1168 for a
crime committed prior to July 1, 2013, the period of parole shall not
exceed five years in the case of an inmate imprisoned for any
offense other than first or second degree murder for which the inmate
has received a life sentence, and shall not exceed three years in
the case of any other inmate, unless in either case the Board of
Parole Hearings for good cause waives parole and discharges the
inmate from custody of the department. This subdivision shall also be
applicable to inmates who committed crimes prior to July 1, 1977, to
the extent specified in Section 1170.2. In the case of any inmate
sentenced under Section 1168 for a crime committed on or after July
1, 2013, the period of parole shall not exceed five years in the case
of an inmate imprisoned for any offense other than first or second
degree murder for which the inmate has received a life sentence, and
shall not exceed three years in the case of any other inmate, unless
in either case the department for good cause waives parole and
discharges the inmate from custody of the department.
(2) (A) For a crime committed prior to July 1, 2013, at the
expiration of a term of imprisonment of one year and one day, or a
term of imprisonment imposed pursuant to Section 1170 or at the
expiration of a term reduced pursuant to Section 2931 or 2933, if
applicable, the inmate shall be released on parole for a period not
exceeding three years, except that any inmate sentenced for an
offense specified in paragraph (3), (4), (5), (6), (11), or (18) of
subdivision (c) of Section 667.5 shall be released on parole for a
period not exceeding 10 years, unless a longer period of parole is
specified in Section 3000.1.
(B) For a crime committed on or after July 1, 2013, at the
expiration of a term of imprisonment of one year and one day, or a
term of imprisonment imposed pursuant to Section 1170 or at the
expiration of a term reduced pursuant to Section 2931 or 2933, if
applicable, the inmate shall be released on parole for a period of
three years, except that any inmate sentenced for an offense
specified in paragraph (3), (4), (5), (6), (11), or (18) of
subdivision (c) of Section 667.5 shall be released on parole for a
period of 10 years, unless a longer period of parole is specified in
Section 3000.1.
(3) Notwithstanding paragraphs (1) and (2), in the case of any
offense for which the inmate has received a life sentence pursuant to
subdivision (b) of Section 209, with the intent to commit a
specified sex offense, or Section 667.51, 667.61, or 667.71, the
period of parole shall be 10 years, unless a longer period of parole
is specified in Section 3000.1.
(4) (A) Notwithstanding paragraphs (1) to (3), inclusive, in the
case of a person convicted of and required to register as a sex
offender for the commission of an offense specified in Section 261,
262, 264.1, 286, 288a, paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) of Section
288, Section 288.5, or 289, in which one or more of the victims of
the offense was a child under 14 years of age, the period of parole
shall be 20 years and six months unless the board, for good cause,
determines that the person will be retained on parole. The board
shall make a written record of this determination and transmit a copy
of it to the parolee.
(B) In the event of a retention on parole, the parolee shall be
entitled to a review by the board each year thereafter.
(C) There shall be a board hearing consistent with the procedures
set forth in Sections 3041.5 and 3041.7 within 12 months of the date
of any revocation of parole to consider the release of the inmate on
parole, and notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (3) of
subdivision (b) of Section 3041.5, there shall be annual parole
consideration hearings thereafter, unless the person is released or
otherwise ineligible for parole release. The panel or board shall
release the person within one year of the date of the revocation
unless it determines that the circumstances and gravity of the parole
violation are such that consideration of the public safety requires
a more lengthy period of incarceration or unless there is a new
prison commitment following a conviction.
(D) The provisions of Section 3042 shall not apply to any hearing
held pursuant to this subdivision.
(5) (A) The Board of Parole Hearings shall consider the request of
any inmate whose commitment offense occurred prior to July 1, 2013,
regarding the length of his or her parole and the conditions thereof.
(B) For an inmate whose commitment offense occurred on or after
July 1, 2013, except for those inmates described in Section 3000.1,
the department shall consider the request of the inmate regarding the
length of his or her parole and the conditions thereof. For those
inmates described in Section 3000.1, the Board of Parole Hearings
shall consider the request of the inmate regarding the length of his
or her parole and the conditions thereof.
(6) Upon successful completion of parole, or at the end of the
maximum statutory period of parole specified for the inmate under
paragraph (1), (2), (3), or (4), as the case may be, whichever is
earlier, the inmate shall be discharged from custody. The date of the
maximum statutory period of parole under this subdivision and
paragraphs (1), (2), (3), and (4) shall be computed from the date of
initial parole and shall be a period chronologically determined. Time
during which parole is suspended because the prisoner has absconded
or has been returned to custody as a parole violator shall not be
credited toward any period of parole unless the prisoner is found not
guilty of the parole violation. However, the period of parole is
subject to the following:
(A) Except as provided in Section 3064, in no case may a prisoner
subject to three years on parole be retained under parole supervision
or in custody for a period longer than four years from the date of
his or her initial parole.
(B) Except as provided in Section 3064, in no case may a prisoner
subject to five years on parole be retained under parole supervision
or in custody for a period longer than seven years from the date of
his or her initial parole.
(C) Except as provided in Section 3064, in no case may a prisoner
subject to 10 years on parole be retained under parole supervision or
in custody for a period longer than 15 years from the date of his or
her initial parole.
(7) The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation shall meet
with each inmate at least 30 days prior to his or her good time
release date and shall provide, under guidelines specified by the
parole authority or the department, whichever is applicable, the
conditions of parole and the length of parole up to the maximum
period of time provided by law. The inmate has the right to
reconsideration of the length of parole and conditions thereof by the
department or the parole authority, whichever is applicable. The
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation or the board may impose
as a condition of parole that a prisoner make payments on the
prisoner's outstanding restitution fines or orders imposed pursuant
to subdivision (a) or (c) of Section 13967 of the Government Code, as
operative prior to September 28, 1994, or subdivision (b) or (f) of
Section 1202.4.
(8) For purposes of this chapter, and except as otherwise
described in this section, the board shall be considered the parole
authority.
(9) (A) On and after July 1, 2013, the sole authority to issue
warrants for the return to actual custody of any state prisoner
released on parole rests with the court pursuant to Section 1203.2,
except for any escaped state prisoner or any state prisoner released
prior to his or her scheduled release date who should be returned to
custody, and Section 5054.1 shall apply.
(B) Notwithstanding subparagraph (A), any warrant issued by the
Board of Parole Hearings prior to July 1, 2013, shall remain in full
force and effect until the warrant is served or it is recalled by the
board. All prisoners on parole arrested pursuant to a warrant issued
by the board shall be subject to a review by the board prior to the
department filing a petition with the court to revoke the parole of
the petitioner.
(10) It is the intent of the Legislature that efforts be made with
respect to persons who are subject to Section 290.011 who are on
parole to engage them in treatment.
SEC. 34. Section 3000.03 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
3000.03. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation shall not return to
prison, place a parole hold on pursuant to Section 3056, or report
any parole violation to the Board of Parole Hearings or the court, as
applicable, regarding any person to whom all of the following
criteria apply:
(a) The person is not required to register as a sex offender
pursuant to Chapter 5.5 (commencing with Section 290) of Title 9 of
Part 1.
(b) The person was not committed to prison for a serious felony as
defined in Sections 1192.7 and 1192.8, or a violent felony, as

Section 667.5.
(c) The person was not committed to prison for a sexually violent
offense as defined in subdivision (b) of Section 6600 of the Welfare
and Institutions Code and does not have a prior conviction for a
sexually violent offense as defined in subdivision (b) of Section
6600 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.
(d) The person was not found guilty of a serious disciplinary
offense, as defined in regulation by the department, during his or
her current term of imprisonment.

as defined in regulation by the department.
(f) The person did not refuse to sign any forms, or provide any
samples, as required by Section 3060.5.
(g) The person was evaluated by the department using a validated
risk assessment tool and was not determined to pose a high risk to
reoffend.
SEC. 35. Section 3000.08 of the Penal Code, as amended by Section
18 of Chapter 12 of the First Extraordinary Session of the Statutes
of 2011, is amended to read:
3000.08. (a) Persons released from state prison prior to or on or
after July 1, 2013, after serving a prison term or, whose sentence
has been deemed served pursuant to Section 2900.5, for any of the
following crimes shall be subject to parole supervision by the
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and the jurisdiction of
the court in the county where the parolee is released or resides for
the purpose of hearing petitions to revoke parole and impose a term
of custody:
(1) A serious felony as described in subdivision (c) of Section
1192.7.
(2) A violent felony as described in subdivision (c) of Section
667.5.
(3) A crime for which the person was sentenced pursuant to
paragraph (2) of subdivision (e) of Section 667 or paragraph (2) of
subdivision (c) of Section 1170.12.
(4) Any crime where the person eligible for release from prison is
classified as a High Risk Sex Offender.
(5) Any crime where the person is required, as a condition of
parole, to undergo treatment by the Department of Mental Health
pursuant to Section 2962.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all other
offenders released from prison shall be placed on postrelease
supervision pursuant to Title 2.05 (commencing with Section 3450).
(c) At any time during the period of parole of a person subject to
this section, if any parole agent or peace officer has probable
cause to believe that the parolee is violating any term or condition
of his or her parole, the agent or officer may, without warrant or
other process and at any time until the final disposition of the
case, arrest the person and bring him or her before the court, or the
court may, in its discretion, issue a warrant for that person's
arrest pursuant to Section 1203.2.
(d) Upon review of the alleged violation and a finding of good
cause that the parolee has committed a violation of law or violated
his or her conditions of parole, the supervising parole agency may
impose additional and appropriate conditions of supervision,
including rehabilitation and treatment services and appropriate
incentives for compliance, and impose immediate, structured, and
intermediate sanctions for parole violations, including flash
incarceration in a county jail. Periods of "flash incarceration," as
defined in subdivision (e) are encouraged as one method of punishment
for violations of a parolee's conditions of parole. Nothing in this
section is intended to preclude referrals to a reentry court pursuant
to Section 3015.
(e) "Flash incarceration" is a period of detention in county jail
due to a violation of a parolee's conditions of parole. The length of
the detention period can range between one and 10 consecutive days.
Shorter, but if necessary more frequent, periods of detention for
violations of a parolee's conditions of parole shall appropriately
punish a parolee while preventing the disruption in a work or home
establishment that typically arises from longer periods of detention.
(f) If the supervising parole agency has determined, following
application of its assessment processes, that intermediate sanctions
up to and including flash incarceration are not appropriate, the
supervising parole agency shall, pursuant to Section 1203.2, petition
the court in the county in which the parolee is being supervised to
revoke parole. At any point during the process initiated pursuant to
this section, a parolee may waive, in writing, his or her right to
counsel, admit the parole violation, waive a court hearing, and
accept the proposed parole modification or revocation. The petition
shall include a written report that contains additional information
regarding the petition, including the relevant terms and conditions
of parole, the circumstances of the alleged underlying violation, the
history and background of the parolee, and any recommendations. The
Judicial Council shall adopt forms and rules of court to establish
uniform statewide procedures to implement this subdivision, including
the minimum contents of supervision agency reports. Upon a finding
that the person has violated the conditions of parole, the court
shall have authority to do any of the following:
(1) Return the person to parole supervision with modifications of
conditions, if appropriate, including a period of incarceration in
county jail.
(2) Revoke parole and order the person to confinement in the
county jail.
(3) Refer the person to a reentry court pursuant to Section 3015
or other evidence-based program in the court's discretion.
(g) Confinement pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of subdivision
(f) shall not exceed a period of 180 days in the county jail.
(h) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in any case where
Section 3000.1 or paragraph (4) of subdivision (b) of Section 3000
applies to a person who is on parole and the court determines that
the person has committed a violation of law or violated his or her
conditions of parole, the person on parole shall be remanded to the
custody of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and the
jurisdiction of the Board of Parole Hearings for the purpose of
future parole consideration.
(i) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), any of the following persons
released from state prison shall be subject to the jurisdiction of,
and parole supervision by, the Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation for a period of parole up to three years or the parole
term the person was subject to at the time of the commission of the
offense, whichever is greater:
(1) The person is required to register as a sex offender pursuant
to Chapter 5.5 (commencing with Section 290) of Title 9 of Part 1,
and was subject to a period of parole exceeding three years at the
time he or she committed a felony for which they were convicted and
subsequently sentenced to state prison.
(2) The person was subject to parole for life pursuant to Section
3000.1 at the time of the commission of the offense that resulted in
a conviction and state prison sentence.
(j) Parolees subject to this section who have a pending
adjudication for a parole violation on July 1, 2013, shall be subject
to the jurisdiction of the Board of Parole Hearings. Parole
revocation proceedings conducted by the Board of Parole Hearings
prior to July 1, 2013, if reopened on or after July 1, 2013, shall be
subject to the jurisdiction of the Board of Parole Hearings.
(k) Except as described in subdivision (c), any person who is

before the supervising county agency established by the county board

hearing on the petition for any reason in the interests of justice.
(c) The revocation hearing shall be held within a reasonable time
after the filing of the revocation petition. Based upon a showing of

has been released from custody on bail or on his or her own
recognizance prior to the judgment becoming final, including the
disposition of any appeal, or for which release on bail or his or her
own recognizance has been revoked. In cases where the court has
granted a stay of execution of a county jail commitment or state
prison commitment, "primary offense" also means a felony offense for
which a person is out of custody during the period of time between
the pronouncement of judgment and the time the person actually
surrenders into custody or is otherwise returned to custody.
(2) "Secondary offense" means a felony offense alleged to have
been committed while the person is released from custody for a
primary offense.
(b) Any person arrested for a secondary offense which was alleged
to have been committed while that person was released from custody on
a primary offense shall be subject to a penalty enhancement of an
additional two years which shall be served consecutive to any other
term imposed by the court.
(c) The enhancement allegation provided in subdivision (b) shall
be pleaded in the information or indictment which alleges the
secondary offense, or in the information or indictment of the primary
offense if a conviction has already occurred in the secondary
offense, and shall be proved as provided by law. The enhancement
allegation may be pleaded in a complaint but need not be proved at
the preliminary hearing or grand jury hearing.
(d) Whenever there is a conviction for the secondary offense and
the enhancement is proved, and the person is sentenced on the
secondary offense prior to the conviction of the primary offense, the
imposition of the enhancement shall be stayed pending imposition of
the sentence for the primary offense. The stay shall be lifted by the
court hearing the primary offense at the time of sentencing for that
offense and shall be recorded in the abstract of judgment. If the
person is acquitted of the primary offense the stay shall be
permanent.
(e) If the person is convicted of a felony for the primary
offense, is sentenced to state prison for the primary offense, and is
convicted of a felony for the secondary offense, any sentence for
the secondary offense shall be consecutive to the primary sentence
and the aggregate term shall be served in the state prison, even if
the term for the secondary offense specifies imprisonment in county
jail pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170.
(f) If the person is convicted of a felony for the primary
offense, is granted probation for the primary offense, and is
convicted of a felony for the secondary offense, any sentence for the
secondary offense shall be enhanced as provided in subdivision (b).
(g) If the primary offense conviction is reversed on appeal, the
enhancement shall be suspended pending retrial of that felony. Upon
retrial and reconviction, the enhancement shall be reimposed. If the
person is no longer in custody for the secondary offense upon
reconviction of the primary offense, the court may, at its
discretion, reimpose the enhancement and order him or her recommitted
to custody.
