Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 21, November 4, 2024

Section 10A:72-14.4 - Division of Parole review

(a) A District Parole Supervisor or designee shall review a special condition prohibiting an offender access to the Internet (Internet access condition) one year from the effective date of the Internet access condition and on an annual basis thereafter to determine if it remains warranted.

(b) The District Parole Supervisor or designee shall review the Internet access condition utilizing the criteria specified in (c) below.

(c) The review of the Internet access condition shall include, but not be limited to, an assessment as to whether:

1. There is a reasonable basis to preclude access to the Internet;

2. Internet use is consistent with the continued rehabilitation of the offender and will not compromise public safety;

3. The offender is in compliance with the conditions of supervision;

4. The offender has met the goals listed in his or her Case Plan Agreement and is progressing in a pro-social manner; and

5. The offender's treatment provider, if the offender is presently participating in counseling, is of the opinion that Internet access will promote the rehabilitation of the offender and assist the offender's re-entry efforts.

(d) Upon completion of the review of the Internet access condition, the District Parole Supervisor or designee shall determine whether to continue or vacate the Internet access condition.

(e) If the District Parole Supervisor or designee determines to continue the Internet access condition, the continuation shall conform with the procedures in N.J.A.C. 10A:72-14.2 and 14.3. However, if the offender contests the justification supporting the extension of the Internet access condition, the Internet access condition shall remain in effect until the Board panel has reviewed the offender's case and determined whether to continue or vacate the extension of the Internet access condition.

(f) If the District Parole Supervisor or designee determines to vacate the Internet access condition, the District Parole Supervisor or designee shall notify the offender in writing of the decision. The decision shall also be recorded in the chronological supervision report.
