Oregon Statutes - Chapter 144 - Parole; Post-Prison Supervision; Work Release; Executive Clemency; Standards for Prison Terms and Parole; Presentence Reports - Section 144.108 - Recommitment to prison for certain violations; procedure; effect of recommitment; victim’s rights regarding hearing.

(1) If the violation of post-prison supervision is new criminal activity or if the supervisory authority finds that the continuum of sanctions is insufficient punishment for a violation of the conditions of post-prison supervision, the supervisory authority may:

(a) Impose the most restrictive sanction available, including incarceration in jail;

(b) Request the State Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision to impose a sanction under subsection (2) of this section; or

(c) Request the board to impose a sanction under ORS 144.107.

(2) If so requested, the board or its designated representative shall hold a hearing to determine whether incarceration in a jail or state correctional facility is appropriate. Except as otherwise provided by rules of the board and the Department of Corrections concerning parole and post-prison supervision violators, the board may impose a sanction up to the maximum provided by rules of the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission. In conducting a hearing pursuant to this subsection, the board or its designated representative shall follow the procedures and the offender shall have all the rights described in ORS 144.343 and 144.347 relating to revocation of parole.

(3) A person who is ordered to serve a term of incarceration in a jail or state correctional facility as a sanction for a post-prison supervision violation is not eligible for:

(a) Earned credit time as described in ORS 169.110 or 421.121;

(b) Transitional leave as defined in ORS 421.168; or

(c) Temporary leave as described in ORS 169.115 or 421.165 (1987 Replacement Part).

(4) A person who is ordered to serve a term of incarceration in a state correctional facility as a sanction for a post-prison supervision violation shall receive credit for time served on the post-prison supervision violation prior to the board’s imposition of the term of incarceration.

(5)(a) The victim has the right:

(A) Upon request made within the time period prescribed in the notice required by ORS 147.417, to be notified by the board of any hearing before the board that may result in a revocation sanction for a post-prison supervision violation;

(B) To appear personally at the hearing; and

(C) If present, to reasonably express any views relevant to the issues before the board.

(b) Failure of the board to notify the victim under paragraph (a) of this subsection or failure of the victim to appear at the hearing does not affect the validity of the proceeding. [1989 c.790 §36; 1995 c.423 §17; 1997 c.313 §13; 1997 c.525 §5]
