     A bill to amend 1953 PA 232, entitled

 

"Corrections code of 1953,"

 

by amending section 36 (MCL 791.236), as amended by 2011 PA 165.

 

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

     Sec. 36. (1) All paroles shall be ordered by the parole board

 

and shall be signed by the chairperson. Written notice of the order

 

shall be sent by first-class mail or by electronic means to the

 

prosecuting attorney and the sheriff or other police officer of the

 

municipality or county in which the prisoner was convicted and to

 

the prosecuting attorney and the sheriff or other local police

 

officer of the municipality or county to which the paroled prisoner

 

is sent or is to be sent. The notice shall be provided within 10

 

days after the parole board issues its order to parole the

 


prisoner.

 

     (2) A parole order may be rescinded at the discretion of the

 

parole board for cause before the prisoner is released on parole. A

 

parole shall not be revoked unless an interview with the prisoner

 

is conducted by 1 member of the parole board. The purpose of the

 

interview is to consider and act upon information received by the

 

board after the original parole release decision. A revocation

 

interview shall be conducted within 45 days after receiving the new

 

information. At least 10 days before the interview, the parolee

 

shall receive a copy or summary of the new evidence that is the

 

basis for the interview.

 

     (3) A parole order may be amended at the discretion of the

 

parole board for cause. An amendment to a parole order shall be in

 

writing and is not effective until notice of the amendment is given

 

to the parolee.

 

     (4) When a parole order is issued, the order shall contain the

 

conditions of the parole and shall specifically provide proper

 

means of supervision of the paroled prisoner in accordance with the

 

rules of the bureau of field services.

 

     (5) The parole order shall contain a condition to pay

 

restitution to the victim of the prisoner's crime or the victim's

 

estate if the prisoner was ordered to make restitution under the

 

William Van Regenmorter crime victim's rights act, 1985 PA 87, MCL

 

780.751 to 780.834, or the code of criminal procedure, 1927 PA 175,

 

MCL 760.1 to 777.69.

 

     (6) The parole order shall contain a condition requiring the

 

parolee to pay a parole supervision fee as prescribed in section

 


36a.

 

     (7) The parole order shall contain a condition requiring the

 

parolee to pay any assessment the prisoner was ordered to pay under

     (8) The parole order shall contain a condition requiring the

 

parolee to pay the minimum state cost prescribed by section 1j of

 

chapter IX of the code of criminal procedure, 1927 PA 175, MCL

 

769.1j, if the minimum state cost has not been paid.

 

     (9) If the parolee is required to be registered under the sex

parole order shall contain a condition requiring the parolee to

 

comply with that act.

 

     (10) If a prisoner convicted of violating or conspiring to

 

violate section 7401(2)(a)(i) or (ii) or 7403(2)(a)(i) or (ii) of the

 

public health code, 1978 PA 368, MCL 333.7401 and 333.7403, is

 

released on parole, the parole order shall contain a notice that if

 

the parolee violates or conspires to violate article 7 of the

 

public health code, 1978 PA 368, MCL 333.7101 to 333.7545, and that

 

violation or conspiracy to violate is punishable by imprisonment

 

for 4 or more years, or commits a violent felony during his or her

 

release on parole, parole shall be revoked.

 

     (11) A parole order issued for a prisoner subject to

 

disciplinary time may contain a condition requiring the parolee to

 

be housed in a community corrections center or a community

 

residential home for not less than the first 30 days but not more

 

than the first 180 days of his or her term of parole. As used in

 

this subsection, "community corrections center" and "community

 


residential home" mean those terms as defined in section 65a.

 

     (12) The parole order shall contain a condition requiring the

 

parolee to pay the following amounts owed by the prisoner, if

 

applicable:

 

     (a) The balance of filing fees and costs ordered to be paid

 

under section 2963 of the revised judicature act of 1961, 1961 PA

 

236, MCL 600.2963.

 

     (b) The balance of any filing fee ordered to be paid by a

 

federal court under 28 USC 1915 and any unpaid order of costs

 

assessed against the prisoner.

 

     (13) In each case in which payment of restitution is ordered

 

as a condition of parole, a parole officer assigned to a case shall

 

review the case not less than twice yearly to ensure that

 

restitution is being paid as ordered. The final review shall be

 

conducted not less than 60 days before the expiration of the parole

 

period. If the parole officer determines that restitution is not

 

being paid as ordered, the parole officer shall file a written

 

report of the violation with the parole board on a form prescribed

 

by the parole board. The report shall include a statement of the

 

amount of arrearage and any reasons for the arrearage known by the

 

parole officer. The parole board shall immediately provide a copy

 

of the report to the court, the prosecuting attorney, and the

 

victim.

 

     (14) If a parolee is required to register under the sex

 

offenders registration act, 1994 PA 295, MCL 28.721 to 28.736, the

 

parole officer shall register the parolee as provided in that act.

 

     (15) Beginning August 28, 2006, if a parolee convicted of

 


violating or conspiring to violate section 520b or 520c of the

 

Michigan penal code, 1931 PA 328, MCL 750.520b and 750.520c, other

 

than a parolee who is subject to lifetime electronic monitoring

 

under section 85, is placed on parole, the parole board may require

 

that the parolee be subject to electronic monitoring. The

 

electronic monitoring required under this subsection shall be

 

conducted in the same manner, and shall be subject to the same

 

requirements, as is described in section 85 of this act and section

 

520n(2) of the Michigan penal code, 1931 PA 328, MCL 750.520n,

 

except as follows:

 

     (a) The electronic monitoring shall continue only for the

 

duration of the term of parole.

 

     (b) A violation by the parolee of any requirement prescribed

 

in section 520n(2)(a) to (c) is a violation of a condition of

 

parole, not a felony violation.

 

     (16) If the parole order contains a condition intended to

 

protect 1 or more named persons, the department shall enter those

 

provisions of the parole order into the corrections management

 

information system, accessible by the law enforcement information

 

network. If the parole board rescinds a parole order described in

 

this subsection, the department within 3 business days shall remove

 

from the corrections management information system the provisions

 

of that parole order.

 

     (17) Each prisoner who is required to be registered under the

 

sex offenders registration act, 1994 PA 295, MCL 28.721 to 28.736,

 

before being released on parole or being released upon completion

 

of his or her maximum sentence, shall provide to the department

 


notice of the location of his or her proposed place of residence or

 

domicile. The department then shall forward that notice of location

 

to the appropriate law enforcement agency as required under section

 

5(2) or, beginning July 1, 2011, section 5(3) of the sex offenders

 

registration act, 1994 PA 295, MCL 28.725. A prisoner who refuses

 

to provide notice of the location of his or her proposed place of

 

residence or domicile or knowingly provides an incorrect notice of

 

the location of his or her proposed place of residence or domicile

 

under this subsection is guilty of a felony punishable by

 

imprisonment for not more than 4 years or a fine of not more than

 

$2,000.00, or both.

 

     (18) If a prisoner is serving a sentence for violating section

 

411i of the Michigan penal code, 1931 PA 328, MCL 750.411i

 

(aggravated stalking), and if a victim of that crime has registered

 

to receive notices about that prisoner under the William Van

 

Regenmorter crime victim's rights act, 1985 PA 87, MCL 780.751 to

 

780.834, the parole order for that prisoner shall require that the

 

prisoner's location be monitored by a global positioning monitoring

 

system during the entire period of the prisoner's parole. If, at

 

the time a prisoner described in this subsection is paroled, no

 

victim of the crime has registered to receive notices about that

 

prisoner under the William Van Regenmorter crime victim's rights

 

act, 1985 PA 87, MCL 780.751 to 780.834, but a victim of the crime

 

subsequently registers to receive those notices, the prisoner's

 

order of parole shall immediately be modified to require that the

 

prisoner's location be monitored by a global positioning system

 

during the balance of the period of that prisoner's parole. As used

 


in this subsection, "global positioning monitoring system" means a

 

system that electronically determines and reports the location of

 

an individual by means of an ankle bracelet transmitter or similar

 

device worn by the individual, which transmits latitude and

 

longitude data to monitoring authorities through global positioning

 

satellite technology but does not include any radio frequency

 

identification technology, global positioning technology, or

 

similar technology that would be implanted in the parolee or would

 

otherwise violate the corporeal body of the parolee.

 

     (19) The parole order shall require the parolee to provide

 

written consent to submit to a search of his or her person or

 

property upon demand by a peace officer or parole officer. The

 

written consent shall include the prisoner's name and date of

 

birth, his or her physical description, the date for release on

 

parole, and the ending date for that parole. The prisoner shall

 

sign the written consent before being released on parole. The

 

department shall promptly enter this condition of parole into the

 

department's corrections management information system or offender

 

management network information system or into a corresponding

 

records management system that is accessible through the law

 

enforcement information network.

 

     (20) (19) As used in this section, "violent felony" means an

 

offense against a person in violation of section 82, 83, 84, 86,

 

87, 88, 89, 316, 317, 321, 349, 349a, 350, 397, 520b, 520c, 520d,

 

520e, 520g, 529, 529a, or 530 of the Michigan penal code, 1931 PA

 

328, MCL 750.82, 750.83, 750.84, 750.86, 750.87, 750.88, 750.89,

 

750.316, 750.317, 750.321, 750.349, 750.349a, 750.350, 750.397,

 


750.520b, 750.520c, 750.520d, 750.520e, 750.520g, 750.529,

 

750.529a, and 750.530.
