card identifying the

It is the | ||||||
11 | sole responsibility of the
committed person requesting the | ||||||
12 | identification card issued by the Department to
meet the | ||||||
13 | established criteria.
The person's failure to
meet the criteria | ||||||
14 | is sufficient reason to deny the committed person the
| ||||||
15 | identification card. An identification card issued by the | ||||||
16 | Department under
this subsection shall be valid for a period of | ||||||
17 | time not to exceed 30 calendar
days from the date the card is | ||||||
18 | issued.
The Department shall not be held civilly or
criminally | ||||||
19 | liable to anyone because of any act of any person utilizing a | ||||||
20 | card
issued by the Department under this subsection.
| ||||||

rules governing the issuance of | ||||||
22 | identification cards to committed persons being
released on | ||||||
