(C) Upon receipt of a timely motion for
judicial release | 73 |
filed by an eligible offender under division
(B) of this section | 74 |
or upon the sentencing court's own
motion made within the | 75 |
appropriate time period specified in that
division, the court may | 76 |
schedule a hearing on the motion. The
court may deny the motion | 77 |
without a hearing but shall not grant
the motion without a | 78 |
hearing. If a court denies
a motion without a hearing, the court | 79 |
may
consider a subsequent
judicial release for that eligible | 80 |
offender on its own motion
or a
subsequent motion filed by that | 81 |
eligible
offender. If a court denies a motion after a hearing,
the | 82 |
court shall
not
consider a subsequent motion for that eligible | 83 |
offender. The court shall
hold only one hearing for any eligible | 84 |
offender. | 85 |
(D) If a court schedules a hearing under division (C) of
this | 94 |
section, the court
shall notify the eligible offender of the | 95 |
hearing. The eligible offender promptly shall give a copy
of
the | 96 |
notice of the hearing to the head of the state
correctional | 97 |
institution in which the eligible offender is confined. Upon | 98 |
receipt of a copy of the notice of the court from the eligible | 99 |
offender, if the eligible offender is serving a prison term or | 100 |
term of imprisonment for any designated violence-related or | 101 |
sex-related offense, the head of the state correctional | 102 |
institution immediately shall notify the appropriate person at the | 103 |
department of rehabilitation and correction of the hearing, and | 104 |
the department immediately shall post on the database it maintains | 105 |
pursuant to section 5120.66 of the Revised Code the offender's | 106 |
name and all of the information specified in division (B)(1)(c)(i) | 107 |
of that section. If the
court schedules a hearing for judicial | 108 |
release,
the court promptly
shall give notice of the hearing to | 109 |
the
prosecuting attorney of
the county in which the eligible | 110 |
offender
was indicted. Upon
receipt of the notice from the court, | 111 |
the
prosecuting attorney
shall notify the victim of the offense | 112 |
for
which the stated prison
term was imposed or the victim's | 113 |
representative, pursuant to
section 2930.16 of the
Revised Code, | 114 |
of the hearing. | 115 |
(E) Prior to the date of the hearing on a
motion for
judicial | 116 |
release under this section, the head of the
state
correctional | 117 |
institution in which the eligible
offender in
question is confined | 118 |
shall send to the court a report
on the
eligible offender's | 119 |
conduct in the institution and in any
institution from which the | 120 |
eligible offender may have been
transferred. The report shall | 121 |
cover the eligible offender's
participation in school, vocational | 122 |
training, work, treatment,
and
other rehabilitative activities and | 123 |
any disciplinary action
taken
against the eligible offender. The | 124 |
report shall be made
part of
the record of the hearing. | 125 |
(G) At the hearing on a motion for judicial
release under | 135 |
this section, the court shall afford the eligible
offender and the | 136 |
eligible offender's attorney an
opportunity to
present written | 137 |
information relevant to the
motion and shall afford the eligible | 138 |
offender, if present, and the eligible
offender's attorney an | 139 |
opportunity to present oral information relevant
to the motion.
| 140 |
The court shall afford a similar opportunity to the
prosecuting | 141 |
attorney, the victim or the victim's representative,
as defined in | 142 |
section 2930.01 of the Revised
Code, and any other person the | 143 |
court determines is
likely to present additional relevant | 144 |
information. The court
shall consider any statement of a victim | 145 |
made pursuant to section
2930.14 or 2930.17 of the Revised Code, | 146 |
any
victim impact statement prepared pursuant to section 2947.051 | 147 |
of
the Revised Code, and any report made under division (E) of | 148 |
this section, and, if the eligible offender is serving a prison | 149 |
term or term of imprisonment for any designated violence-related | 150 |
or sex-related offense, the court also shall consider any written | 151 |
statement of any person submitted to the court pursuant to | 152 |
division (J) of this section. After ruling on the motion,
the | 153 |
court shall notify
the victim of the ruling in accordance
with | 154 |
sections 2930.03 and
2930.16 of the Revised
Code. | 155 |
(I) If the court grants a motion for judicial
release under | 180 |
this section, the court shall order the release of
the eligible | 181 |
offender, shall place the eligible offender under an appropriate | 182 |
community control
sanction, under appropriate
community control | 183 |
conditions, and under the
supervision of the department of | 184 |
probation
serving the court, and shall reserve the right to | 185 |
reimpose the sentence that
it reduced pursuant to the judicial | 186 |
release if the offender violates the
sanction. If the court | 187 |
reimposes the reduced sentence pursuant to this
reserved right, it | 188 |
may do so either concurrently with, or consecutive to, any
new | 189 |
sentence imposed upon the eligible offender as a result of the | 190 |
violation
that is a new offense.
The period of the community | 191 |
control sanction
shall be
no longer than five years. The court,
in | 192 |
its
discretion, may reduce the period of the community control | 193 |
sanction by the
amount of time the eligible
offender spent in jail | 194 |
for the offense and in prison. If the
court made any findings | 195 |
pursuant to division (H)(1) of
this section, the court shall serve | 196 |
a copy of the findings upon
counsel for the parties within fifteen | 197 |
days after the date on
which the court grants the motion for | 198 |
judicial release. | 199 |
(J) In addition to and independent of the right of a victim | 204 |
to make a statement pursuant to section 2930.14, 2930.17, or | 205 |
2946.051 of the Revised Code and any right of a person to present | 206 |
written information or make a statement pursuant to division (G) | 207 |
of this section, if the eligible offender is serving a prison term | 208 |
or term of imprisonment for any designated violence-related or | 209 |
sex-related offense, any person may submit to the court, at any | 210 |
time prior to the hearing on the offender's motion for judicial | 211 |
release, a written statement concerning the effects of the | 212 |
offender's crime or crimes, the circumstances surrounding the | 213 |
crime or crimes, the manner in which the crime or crimes were | 214 |
perpetrated, and the person's opinion as to whether the offender | 215 |
should be released. | 216 |
(C) "Commutation" or "commutation of sentence" means the | 226 |
substitution by the governor of a lesser for a greater
punishment. | 227 |
A stated prison term may be commuted
without the consent of
the | 228 |
convict, except when granted upon the acceptance and
performance | 229 |
by the convict of conditions precedent. After
commutation, the | 230 |
commuted prison term shall be the only one in
existence. The | 231 |
commutation may be stated in terms of commuting
from a named | 232 |
offense to a lesser included offense with
a shorter prison term, | 233 |
in terms of commuting from a stated prison
term in months and | 234 |
years to a shorter prison term in months and
years, or in terms of | 235 |
commuting from any other stated prison term to
a shorter prison | 236 |
term. | 237 |
(E) "Parole" means, regarding a prisoner who is serving a | 242 |
prison
term for aggravated murder or murder, who is serving a | 243 |
prison term of life
imprisonment for rape or for felonious sexual | 244 |
penetration as it
existed under section 2907.12 of the Revised | 245 |
Code prior to
September 3, 1996, or who was sentenced
prior to | 246 |
July
1, 1996, a release of the
prisoner from confinement in any | 247 |
state correctional institution by the adult
parole authority that | 248 |
is subject to the eligibility criteria specified in this
chapter | 249 |
and that is under the terms and conditions, and for the period of | 250 |
time, prescribed by the authority in its published rules and | 251 |
official minutes
or required by division (A) of section 2967.131 | 252 |
of the Revised Code or another
provision of this chapter. | 253 |
Sec. 2967.03. The adult parole authority may exercise its | 312 |
functions and duties in relation to the pardon, commutation of | 313 |
sentence, or
reprieve of a convict upon direction of the governor | 314 |
or upon its
own initiative. It may exercise its functions and | 315 |
duties in relation to the parole of a prisoner
who is eligible for | 316 |
parole upon the initiative of the head of the
institution in which | 317 |
the prisoner is confined or upon its own
initiative. When a | 318 |
prisoner becomes eligible for parole, the
head of the institution | 319 |
in which the prisoner is confined shall
notify the authority in | 320 |
the manner prescribed by the authority. The authority
may | 321 |
investigate and examine, or cause the
investigation and | 322 |
examination of, prisoners confined in state
correctional | 323 |
institutions concerning their conduct in the institutions, their | 324 |
mental and moral qualities and characteristics, their knowledge
of | 325 |
a trade or profession, their former means of livelihood, their | 326 |
family relationships, and any other matters affecting their | 327 |
fitness to be at liberty without being a threat to society. | 328 |
The authority may recommend to the governor the pardon, | 329 |
commutation of sentence, or reprieve of any convict or prisoner
or | 330 |
grant a parole to any prisoner for whom parole is authorized, if | 331 |
in
its judgment there is reasonable ground to believe that | 332 |
granting a pardon,
commutation, or reprieve to the convict or | 333 |
paroling the
prisoner would further the interests of justice and | 334 |
be
consistent with the welfare and security of society. However, | 335 |
the authority shall not recommend a pardon or commutation of | 336 |
sentence of, or grant a parole to, any convict or prisoner until | 337 |
the authority has complied with the applicable notice
requirements | 338 |
of sections 2930.16 and 2967.12 of the
Revised Code and until it | 339 |
has considered any statement made by a victim or a
victim's | 340 |
representative that is relevant to the convict's or prisoner's | 341 |
case and that was sent to the authority pursuant to section | 342 |
2930.17 of the Revised Code and, any other statement made by a | 343 |
victim or a victim's representative that is relevant to the | 344 |
convict's or prisoner's case and that was received by the | 345 |
authority after it provided notice of the pendency of the action | 346 |
under sections 2930.16 and 2967.12 of the Revised Code, and, if | 347 |
the convict or prisoner is serving a prison term or term of | 348 |
imprisonment for any designated violence-related or sex-related | 349 |
offense, any written statement of any person submitted to the | 350 |
court pursuant to division (H) of section 2967.12 of the Revised | 351 |
Code. If a victim or
victim's
representative appears at a full | 352 |
board hearing of the parole board and gives
testimony as | 353 |
authorized by section 5149.101 of the Revised Code, the authority | 354 |
shall consider the testimony in determining whether to grant a | 355 |
parole.
The trial judge and
prosecuting attorney of the trial | 356 |
court in which a person was
convicted shall furnish to the | 357 |
authority, at the request of the authority, a
summarized statement | 358 |
of the facts proved at the trial and of all
other facts having | 359 |
reference to the propriety of recommending a
pardon or | 360 |
commutation, or granting a parole, together with a
recommendation | 361 |
for or against a pardon, commutation, or parole,
and the reasons | 362 |
for the recommendation. The trial judge of the
court, and the | 363 |
prosecuting attorney in the trial, in which a prisoner was | 364 |
convicted may
appear at a full board hearing of the parole board | 365 |
and give testimony in
regard to the grant of a parole to the | 366 |
prisoner as authorized by section
5149.101 of the Revised Code. | 367 |
All state and local
officials shall furnish information to the | 368 |
authority, when so
requested by it in the performance of its | 369 |
duties. | 370 |
Sec. 2967.12. (A) Except as provided in division (G) of
this | 375 |
section, at least three weeks before the adult parole
authority | 376 |
recommends any pardon or commutation of sentence, or
grants any | 377 |
parole, the authority shall send a notice of
the pendency of the | 378 |
pardon, commutation, or parole, setting forth the name
of the | 379 |
person on whose behalf it is made, the offense of which the person | 380 |
was
convicted or to which the person pleaded guilty, the time of | 381 |
conviction or the guilty plea, and the term of the person's | 382 |
sentence, to
the prosecuting attorney and the judge of the court | 383 |
of common
pleas of the county in which the indictment against the | 384 |
person
was found. If there is more than one judge of that court of | 385 |
common pleas, the authority shall send the notice
to the presiding | 386 |
judge. If the person is serving a prison term or term of | 387 |
imprisonment for any designated violence-related or sex-related | 388 |
offense, the department of rehabilitation and correction, at the | 389 |
same time that it provides the notice to the prosecuting attorney | 390 |
and judge under this division, also shall post on the database it | 391 |
maintains pursuant to section 5120.66 of the Revised Code the | 392 |
offender's name and all of the information specified in division | 393 |
(B)(1)(c)(iii) of that section. | 394 |
(B) If a request for notification has been made pursuant
to | 395 |
section 2930.16 of the Revised Code, the adult parole
authority | 396 |
also shall give notice to the victim or the victim's | 397 |
representative prior to recommending any pardon or commutation of | 398 |
sentence for, or granting any parole to, the person. The
authority | 399 |
shall provide the notice at the
same time as the notice required | 400 |
by
division (A) of this section and shall include in the notice | 401 |
the information required to be set forth in that notice. The | 402 |
notice also
shall inform the victim or the victim's representative | 403 |
that the victim or
representative may send a written statement | 404 |
relative to the victimization and
the pending action to the adult | 405 |
parole authority and that, if the authority
receives any written | 406 |
statement prior to recommending a
pardon or commutation or | 407 |
granting a parole for a person,
the authority will consider the | 408 |
statement before it recommends a pardon or
commutation or grants a | 409 |
parole. If the person is being considered for parole, the
notice | 410 |
shall inform the victim or the victim's representative that a full | 411 |
board hearing of the parole board may be held and that the victim | 412 |
or victim's representative may contact the office of victims' | 413 |
services for
further information. | 414 |
(C) When notice of the pendency of any pardon,
commutation of | 415 |
sentence, or parole has been given to a judge or prosecutor or | 416 |
posted on the database as provided in
division (A) of this section | 417 |
and a hearing on the pardon, commutation, or
parole is continued | 418 |
to a date certain, the authority
shall giveprovide notice by mail | 419 |
of the further
consideration of the pardon, commutation, or parole | 420 |
to the proper judge and
prosecuting attorney at
least ten days | 421 |
before the further consideration. The notice of the further | 422 |
consideration shall be provided to the proper judge and | 423 |
prosecuting attorney by mail at least ten days before the further | 424 |
consideration, and, if the initial notice was posted on the | 425 |
database as provided in division (A) of this section, the notice | 426 |
of the further consideration shall be posted on the database at | 427 |
least ten days before the further consideration. When notice of | 428 |
the pendency of any pardon, commutation, or parole
has been given | 429 |
as provided in division (B) of this section and the hearing on it | 430 |
is continued to a date certain, the authority shall give notice of | 431 |
the
further consideration to the victim or the victim's | 432 |
representative in accordance with section 2930.03 of the Revised | 433 |
Code. | 434 |
(H) In addition to and independent of the right of a victim | 457 |
to make a statement as described in division (A) of this section | 458 |
or pursuant to section 2930.17 of the Revised Code or to otherwise | 459 |
make a statement, the authority for a judge or prosecuting | 460 |
attorney to furnish statements and information, make | 461 |
recommendations, and give testimony as described in division (A) | 462 |
of this section, the right of a prosecuting attorney, judge, or | 463 |
victim to give testimony or submit a statement at a full parole | 464 |
board hearing pursuant to section 5149.101 of the Revised Code, | 465 |
and any other right or duty of a person to present information or | 466 |
make a statement, if the offender is serving a prison term or term | 467 |
of imprisonment for any designated violence-related or sex-related | 468 |
offense, any person may send to the adult parole authority at any | 469 |
time prior to the authority's recommending a pardon or commutation | 470 |
or granting a parole for the offender a written statement relative | 471 |
to the offense and the pending action. | 472 |
Sec. 2967.26. (A)(1) The department of rehabilitation and | 473 |
correction, by
rule, may establish a transitional control program | 474 |
for the purpose of
closely monitoring a prisoner's adjustment to | 475 |
community
supervision during the final one hundred eighty days of | 476 |
the
prisoner's confinement. If the department establishes a | 477 |
transitional control program under this division, the adult
parole | 478 |
authority may transfer eligible prisoners to transitional
control | 479 |
status under the program during the final one hundred
eighty days | 480 |
of their confinement and under the terms and conditions | 481 |
established by the department, shall provide for the confinement | 482 |
as provided in this division of each eligible prisoner so | 483 |
transferred, and shall supervise each eligible prisoner so | 484 |
transferred in one or more community control sanctions. Each | 485 |
eligible prisoner who is transferred to transitional control | 486 |
status under the program shall be confined in a suitable
facility | 487 |
that is licensed pursuant to division
(C) of section 2967.14 of | 488 |
the
Revised Code, or shall be confined in a
residence the | 489 |
department has approved for this purpose and be
monitored pursuant | 490 |
to an electronic monitoring device, as
defined in section 2929.01 | 491 |
of the
Revised Code. If the department
establishes a transitional | 492 |
control program under this division,
the rules establishing the | 493 |
program shall include criteria that
define which prisoners are | 494 |
eligible for the program, criteria
that must be satisfied to be | 495 |
approved as a residence that may be
used for confinement under the | 496 |
program of a prisoner that is
transferred to it and procedures for | 497 |
the department to approve
residences that satisfy those criteria, | 498 |
and provisions of the
type described in division (C)
of this | 499 |
section. At a minimum, the criteria that define which
prisoners | 500 |
are eligible for the program shall provide all of the
following: | 501 |
(a) That a prisoner is eligible for
the program if the | 502 |
prisoner is serving a prison term or term of
imprisonment for an | 503 |
offense committed prior to
March 17, 1998, and if, at
the time at | 504 |
which eligibility
is being
determined, the prisoner would have | 505 |
been eligible for a
furlough
under this section as it existed | 506 |
immediately prior to
March 17,
1998, or would have
been eligible | 507 |
for conditional release under former section 2967.23
of the | 508 |
Revised Code as that section existed
immediately prior to
March | 509 |
17, 1998; | 510 |
(2) At least three weeks prior to
transferring to | 517 |
transitional control under
this section a prisoner who is serving | 518 |
a term of imprisonment or prison
term for an offense committed on | 519 |
or after July 1, 1996,
the adult parole authority shall give | 520 |
notice of the pendency of
the transfer to transitional control to | 521 |
the court of common pleas of the county in which the indictment | 522 |
against the
prisoner was found and of the fact that the court may | 523 |
disapprove the
transfer of
the prisoner to transitional control | 524 |
and shall include a report prepared by
the head of the state | 525 |
correctional institution in which the prisoner is
confined. The | 526 |
head of the state correctional institution in which the
prisoner | 527 |
is confined, upon the request of the adult parole authority, shall | 528 |
provide to the authority for inclusion in the notice sent to the | 529 |
court under
this division a report on the prisoner's conduct in | 530 |
the institution and in any
institution from which the prisoner may | 531 |
have been transferred. The report
shall cover the prisoner's | 532 |
participation in school, vocational training, work,
treatment, and | 533 |
other rehabilitative activities and any disciplinary action
taken | 534 |
against the prisoner. If the
court disapproves of the transfer of | 535 |
the prisoner to transitional
control, the court shall notify
the | 536 |
authority of the disapproval within
thirty
days after receipt of | 537 |
the notice. If the court timely disapproves the
transfer
of the | 538 |
prisoner to transitional control, the
authority shall not proceed | 539 |
with the transfer.
If the court does not timely disapprove the | 540 |
transfer of
the prisoner to transitional control, the
authority | 541 |
may transfer the
prisoner to transitional control. | 542 |
(3) If the victim of an offense for which a prisoner was | 543 |
sentenced to a prison term or term of imprisonment has requested | 544 |
notification under section 2930.16 of the Revised Code and has | 545 |
provided the
department of rehabilitation and correction with the | 546 |
victim's name and
address, the adult parole authority, at least | 547 |
three weeks prior to
transferring the prisoner to
transitional | 548 |
control pursuant to this section, shall notify
the victim of the | 549 |
pendency of the transfer and of the
victim's right to submit
a | 550 |
statement to the authority regarding the impact of the
transfer of | 551 |
the
prisoner to transitional control. If the victim
subsequently | 552 |
submits a statement of that nature to the authority, the
authority | 553 |
shall consider the statement in deciding whether to
transfer the | 554 |
prisoner to transitional control. | 555 |
(4) If the prisoner is serving a prison term or term of | 556 |
imprisonment for any designated violence-related or sex-related | 557 |
offense, the adult parole authority, at least three weeks prior to | 558 |
transferring the prisoner to transitional control pursuant to this | 559 |
section, shall post on the database it maintains pursuant to | 560 |
section 5120.66 of the Revised Code the prisoner's name and all of | 561 |
the information specified in division (B)(1)(c)(iv) of that | 562 |
section. In addition to and independent of the right of a victim | 563 |
to submit a statement as described in division (A)(3) of this | 564 |
section or to otherwise make a statement and in addition to and | 565 |
independent of any other right or duty of a person to present | 566 |
information or make a statement, if the offender is serving a | 567 |
prison term or term of imprisonment for any designated | 568 |
violence-related or sex-related offense, any person may send to | 569 |
the adult parole authority at any time prior to the authority's | 570 |
transfer of the prisoner to transitional control a written | 571 |
statement regarding the transfer of the prisoner to transitional | 572 |
control. In addition to the information, reports, and statements | 573 |
it considers under divisions (A)(2) and (3) of this section or | 574 |
that it otherwise considers, the authority shall consider each | 575 |
statement submitted in accordance with this division in deciding | 576 |
whether to transfer the prisoner to transitional control. | 577 |
(D) The department of rehabilitation and correction may
adopt | 591 |
rules for the issuance of passes for the limited purposes | 592 |
described in this division to prisoners who are transferred to | 593 |
transitional control under this section. If the department
adopts | 594 |
rules of that nature, the rules shall govern the granting
of the | 595 |
passes and shall provide for the supervision of prisoners
who are | 596 |
temporarily released pursuant to one of those passes. Upon the | 597 |
adoption of
rules under this division, the department may issue | 598 |
passes to
prisoners who are transferred to transitional control | 599 |
status
under this section in accordance with the rules and the | 600 |
provisions of this division. All passes issued under this
division | 601 |
shall be for a maximum of forty-eight hours and may be
issued only | 602 |
for the following purposes: | 603 |
(E) The adult parole authority may require a
prisoner
who is | 609 |
transferred to transitional control to pay to
the division of | 610 |
parole and community services
the reasonable expenses incurred by | 611 |
the division in supervising or confining the prisoner while under | 612 |
transitional control. Inability to pay those
reasonable expenses | 613 |
shall not be
grounds
for refusing to transfer an otherwise | 614 |
eligible
prisoner to transitional control. Amounts received by
the | 615 |
division of
parole and community services
