Prison: community supervision: eligibility.

Existing law requires that all persons released from prison on and after October 1, 2011, after serving a prison term for a felony, be subject to postrelease community supervision provided by a county agency for a period of 3 years immediately following release, except for persons released after serving a term for a serious felony, a violent felony, an offense for which the person was sentenced pursuant to the Three Strikes law, a crime where the person is classified as a High Risk Sex Offender, or a crime where the person is required to undergo treatment by the State Department of State Hospitals because the person has a severe mental disorder. Existing law requires these persons to be subject to parole supervision by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation following release from state prison and the jurisdiction of the court in the county in which the parolee is released or resides. The bill would additionally require any person who has a prior conviction for a serious or violent felony, a prior conviction for an offense for which the person was classified as a High Risk Sex Offender at the time he or she was eligible for release from prison, or a conviction for an offense for which the person was required, as a condition of parole, to undergo treatment by the State Department of State Hospitals, to be subject to parole supervision by the department and the jurisdiction of the court in the county in which the parolee is released or resides.
