Probation, revocation, and suspension of sentence; penalty. Makes changes to the definition of a technical violation as it pertains to the revocation of suspension of sentence and probation and clarifies that a technical violation shall not include a violation of any specific or special term or condition imposed by the court in the original or any subsequent sentencing order and includes the consequences of a violation based solely upon a first technical violation and for a second or subsequent technical violation or any other violation, including a violation of any specific or special term or condition imposed by the court in the original or any subsequent sentencing order. Currently, there are limitations on the amount of active incarceration a court may impose for technical violations. The bill also provides that the court may fix the period of probation and the period of suspension for up to the statutory maximum period for which the defendant might originally have been sentenced to be imposed for any felony offense and up to five years for an offense punishable as a Class 1 or Class 2 misdemeanor. Currently, the limitation on periods of probation and periods of suspension is up to the statutory maximum period of imprisonment for any offense. The bill also adds the offense of crimes against nature committed on or after July 1, 2022, to the list of offenses for which if some period of the sentence for such offense is suspended, the judge is required to order that period of suspension be for the length of time equal to the statutory maximum period for which the defendant might originally have been sentenced to be imprisoned.
