AS 12.55.110 is amended by adding new subsections to read: 09 (c) If a defendant is serving a period of probation for an offense, the court may 10 find that the defendant has committed a technical violation of probation. If the court 11 finds that a defendant has committed a technical violation of probation that does not 12 include absconding, the court may reinstate the term of probation with appropriate 13 conditions or impose a sentence of imprisonment of not more than 14 (1) three days for the first probation revocation; 15 (2) five days for the second probation revocation; 16 (3) 10 days for the third probation revocation; or 17 (4) the remainder of the suspended portion of the sentence for a fourth 18 or subsequent probation revocation. 19 (d) If the court revokes a person's probation for absconding, the court may 20 impose a period of imprisonment not to exceed 30 days. 21 (e) The limits set out in this section on the length of imprisonment for a 22 revocation do not apply if a probationer is enrolled in a program established under 23 AS 33.05.020(f). 24 (f) If the defendant is ordered to complete treatment under 25 AS 12.55.100(a)(2)(E) and does not comply with the court's order, the court may order 26 the defendant to show cause why the defendant should not be sentenced to 27 imprisonment for noncompletion of treatment and may revoke the suspended sentence 28 subject to the limits established in this section. In a contempt or probation revocation 29 proceeding brought as a result of failure to complete treatment, it is an affirmative 30 defense that the defendant was unable to afford the cost of treatment or secure a place 31 in a free treatment program, despite having made continuing good faith efforts. If the 01 court finds that the defendant was unable to complete treatment despite having made 02 continuing good faith efforts, the defendant may not be imprisoned solely because of 03 an inability to pay.

AS 12.55.115 is amended to read: 21 Sec. 12.55.115. Fixing eligibility for discretionary or administrative parole 22 at sentencing.

AS 33.16.200 is amended to read: 07 Sec. 33.16.200. Custody of parolee. Except as provided in AS 33.16.210, the 08 board retains custody of special medical, administrative, discretionary, and 09 mandatory parolees until the expiration of the maximum term or terms of 10 imprisonment to which the parolee is sentenced. 11 * Sec. 143. AS 33.16.210 is amended to read: 12 Sec. 33.16.210. Discharge of parolee. (a) The board may unconditionally 13 discharge a parolee from the jurisdiction and custody of the board after the parolee has 14 completed one year [TWO YEARS] of parole. A discretionary parolee with a residual 15 period of probation may, after one year [TWO YEARS] of parole, be discharged by 16 the board to immediately begin serving the residual period of probation. 17 (b) Notwithstanding (a) of this section, the board may unconditionally 18 discharge a mandatory parolee before the parolee has completed one year [TWO 19 YEARS] of parole if the parolee is serving a concurrent period of residual probation 20 under AS 33.20.040(c), and the period of residual probation and the period of 21 suspended imprisonment each equal or exceed the period of mandatory parole. 22 * Sec. 144. AS 33.16.210 is amended by adding a new subsection to read: 23 (c) A parole officer shall recommend to the board early discharge for a parolee 24 who 25 (1) has completed at least one year on parole; 26 (2) has completed all treatment programs required as a condition of 27 parole; 28 (3) has not been found in violation of conditions of parole by the board 29 for at least one year; and 30 (4) has not been convicted of 31 (A) an unclassified felony offense under AS 11; 01 (B) a sexual felony as defined in AS 12.55.185; or 02 (C) a crime involving domestic violence as defined in 03 AS 18.66.990. 04 * Sec. 145. AS 33.16 is amended by adding a new section to read: 05 Sec. 33.16.215. Sanctions for technical violations and other violations of 06 parole. (a) If a parolee is serving a period of parole for an offense, the board may find 07 that the parolee has committed a technical violation of parole. If the board finds that a 08 parolee has committed a technical violation of parole that does not include 09 absconding, the board may reinstate the term of parole with appropriate conditions or 10 revoke parole and impose a term of imprisonment of not more than 11 (1) three days for the first parole revocation; 12 (2) five days for the second parole revocation; 13 (3) 10 days for the third parole revocation; and 14 (4) the remainder of the sentence for a fourth or subsequent parole 15 revocation. 16 (b) If the board revokes a parolee's parole for absconding, the board may 17 impose a period of imprisonment not to exceed 30 days. 18 (c) The limits on length of imprisonment the board may impose under this 19 section if the board revokes a parolee's parole do not apply if the parolee is enrolled in 20 the program established under AS 33.16.060(c). 21 (d) If the defendant is ordered to complete treatment under AS 33.16.150(a)(3) 22 and does not comply with the board's order, the board may order the parolee to show 23 cause why the board should not revoke the parole for noncompletion of treatment. In a 24 parole revocation proceeding brought as a result of failure to complete treatment, it is 25 an affirmative defense that the parolee was unable to afford the cost of treatment or 26 secure a place in a free treatment program, despite having made continuing good faith 27 efforts. If the board finds that the parolee was unable to complete treatment despite 28 having made continuing good faith efforts, the parole may not be revoked solely 29 because of an inability to pay. If the board does not find that the noncompletion of 30 treatment was attributable to the parolee's inability to pay, the board may revoke 31 parole subject to the limits established in this section. 01 (e) Notwithstanding (a) of this section, the board may not find a technical 02 violation under this section if a person convicted of a sex offense as defined in 03 AS 12.63.100 violates a special condition of parole that is similar to a probation 04 condition described in AS 12.55.100(e). 05 (f) In this section, 06 (1) "absconding" means failing to report within five working days after 07 release from custody under AS 33.20.030 or failing to report for a scheduled meeting 08 with a parole officer, as directed by the board or the parole officer, and failing to make 09 contact with the parole officer within 30 days following the missed meeting; 10 (2) "technical violation" means a violation of the conditions of parole 11 that does not constitute 12 (A) a new criminal offense; 13 (B) failing to complete sex offender treatment; or 14 (C) failing to complete an intervention program for batterers. 15 * Sec. 146. AS 33.16.220(b) is amended to read: 16 (b) Except as provided in (e) of this section, within 15 working days after the 17 arrest and incarceration of a parolee for violation of a condition of parole, other than 18 a technical violation under AS 33.16.215, the board or its designee shall hold a 19 preliminary hearing. At the preliminary hearing, the board or its designee shall 20 determine if there is probable cause to believe that the parolee violated the conditions 21 of parole and, when probable cause exists, whether the parolee should be released 22 pending a final revocation hearing. A finding of probable cause at a preliminary 23 hearing in a criminal case is conclusive proof of probable cause that a parole violation 24 occurred. 25 * Sec. 147. AS 33.16.220(f) is amended to read: 26 (f) If a parolee has had a preliminary hearing under (b) of this section, the 27 [THE] board shall hold a final revocation hearing not [NO] later than 120 days after a 28 parolee's arrest, subject to restrictions arising under AS 33.36.110 and (g) of this 29 section. 30 * Sec. 148. AS 33.16.220(i) is amended to read: 31 (i) If, after the final revocation hearing, the board finds that the parolee has 01 violated a condition of parole imposed under AS 33.16.150(a), (b), or (f), or a law or 02 ordinance, the board may revoke all or a portion of the remaining period of parole 03 subject to the limits set out in AS 33.16.215, or change any condition of parole. A 04 parolee's period of parole is tolled from the date of filing with the parole board of 05 a violation report for absconding and the date of the parolee's arrest, if the 06 parole board finds, after a hearing, that the parolee violated parole by 07 absconding, as defined in AS 33.16.215(f). The board may not extend the period 08 of parole beyond the maximum release date calculated by the department on the 09 parolee's original sentence plus any time that has been tolled as described in this 10 section. 11 * Sec. 149. AS 33.16.220 is amended by adding a new subsection to read: 12 (j) If a parolee has been arrested for a technical violation of conditions of 13 parole, the board or its designee shall hold a final hearing within 15 working days. 14 * Sec. 150. AS 33.16.240 is amended by adding new subsections to read: 15 (h) A parolee arrested under this section for a technical violation shall be 16 released once the parolee has served the maximum number of days that could be 17 served for a technical violation under AS 33.16.215. Nothing in this subsection 18 prohibits the board or its designee from releasing a parolee sooner. 19 (i) The board or its designee may impose additional conditions necessary to 20 ensure the parolee's appearance at a hearing held under AS 33.16.220(h). 21 * Sec. 151. AS 33.16 is amended by adding a new section to read: 22 Sec. 33.16.270. Earned compliance credits. The commissioner shall establish 23 by regulation a program allowing parolees to earn credits for complying with the 24 conditions of parole. The earned compliance credits reduce the period of parole. 25 Nothing in this section prohibits the department from recommending to the board the 26 early discharge of the parolee as provided in this chapter. At a minimum, the 27 regulations must 28 (1) require that a parolee earn a credit of 30 days for each 30-day 29 period served in which the parolee complied with the conditions of parole; 30 (2) include policies and procedures for 31 (A) calculating and tracking credits earned by parolees; 01 (B) reducing the parolee's period of parole based on credits 02 earned by the parolee and notifying a victim under AS 33.30.013. 03 * Sec. 152. AS 33.16.900 is amended by adding new paragraphs to read: 04 (14) "administrative parole" means the release of a prisoner who is 05 eligible for administrative parole under AS 33.16.089 and who has satisfied the 06 criteria for release, subject to conditions imposed by the board and subject to its 07 custody and jurisdiction; 08 (15) "administrative sanctions and incentives" means responses by a 09 parole officer to a parolee's compliance with or violation of the conditions of parole 10 under AS 33.16.180. 11 * Sec. 153. AS 33.20.010(a) is amended to read: 12 (a) Notwithstanding AS 12.55.125(f)(3) and 12.55.125(g)(3), a prisoner 13 convicted of an offense against the state or a political subdivision of the state and 14 sentenced to a term of imprisonment that exceeds three days is entitled to a deduction 15 of one-third of the term of imprisonment rounded off to the nearest day if the prisoner 16 follows the rules of the correctional facility in which the prisoner is confined. A 17 prisoner is not eligible for a good time deduction if the prisoner has been sentenced 18 (1) to a mandatory 99-year term of imprisonment under 19 AS 12.55.125(a) after June 27, 1996; 20 (2) to a definite term under AS 12.55.125(l); [OR] 21 (3) for a sexual felony under AS 12.55.125(i) 22 (A) and has one or more prior sexual felony convictions as 23 determined under AS 12.55.145(a)(4); or 24 (B) that is an unclassified or a class A felony; or 25 (4) to a definite term of imprisonment of not more than 10 days for 26 a technical violation of AS 12.55.110(c) or AS 33.16.215. 27 * Sec. 154.
