HB 53 Wyoming House · 2019 General Session

Probation and parole-incentives and sanctions.

HB 53 creates a standardized system for managing probation and parole supervision in Wyoming. It requires the Department of Corrections to establish graduated responses to both positive behavior (incentives) and violations (sanctions), using validated risk assessments. Key provisions include crediting time spent in custody for violations toward the original sentence, authorizing sanctions like community service or short-term jail stays (up to 90 days), and mandating cognitive-behavioral programming for certain sanctions. The law directly affects probationers, parolees, and conditional releasees, while also requiring training for correctional staff, judges, and attorneys on the new system.
