AB 579 California Assembly · 2013-2014 Regular Session

Mandatory supervision.

Summary
Existing law authorizes a court, when sentencing a person to county jail for a felony, to commit the person to county jail for either the full term in custody, as specified, or to suspend the execution of a concluding portion of the term selected at the court's discretion. Under existing law, this period of suspended execution is supervised by the county probation officer and is known as mandatory supervision. This bill would specify that mandatory supervision begins upon release from custody. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
