An act to add and repeal Section 461.5 of the Penal Code, relating to burglary.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 1266, as amended, Portantino.
Burglary.
Under existing law, a person who enters a house, room, apartment, tenement, shop, warehouse, store, mill, barn, stable, outhouse or other building, tent, vessel, floating home, railroad car, locked or sealed cargo container, trailer coach, house car, inhabited camper, locked vehicle, aircraft, or mine, with intent to commit larceny or any felony is guilty of burglary. Under existing law, burglary of an inhabited house or the inhabited portion of any other building, a vessel designed for habitation and inhabited, a floating home, or a trailer coach, as specified, is burglary in the first degree, and all other burglary is burglary in the 2nd degree. Under existing law, burglary in the first degree is punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for 2, 4, or 6 years, and burglary in the 2nd degree is punishable as a misdemeanor by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year, or
as a felony by imprisonment in a county jail for 16 months, or 2 or 3 years.
This bill would, until January 1, 2024, require a person convicted of burglary in the first degree who is released from prison on parole in the County of Los Angeles to be subject to global positioning system (GPS) monitoring as a condition of parole. The bill would require the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to report to the Assembly and Senate Committees on Public Safety or before April 1, 2023, regarding specified information about the GPS program, including, among other items, the number and percentage of parolees in the GPS monitoring program, as of January 1, 2023, who were arrested, convicted, or had their parole revoked, for the commission of a property crime.
This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Los Angeles.
By increasing the penalties for an existing crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
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 no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
