SB 1068 Summary

• Amends Arizona law to specify community supervision terms based on crime type: one day per seven days of sentence for violent crimes, three days per seven days for non-violent felonies.

• Modifies earned release credit calculation to award one day for every six days served for violent crimes and two days for every six days served for non-violent offenses.

• Clarifies that earned release credits do not reduce the court-imposed term of imprisonment.

• Establishes that prisoners reaching their earned release date must begin community supervision or probation unless the court waived community supervision.
