Sentencing BillContribution
Let us consider an example involving an individual eligible for the 56-day recall period. They return to custody after attending an address from which they had been specifically prohibited and behaving in an aggressive and confrontational manner. Shortly afterwards, the probation officer is informed by the police that the individual has now been charged with breaching a civil protective order. As this charge places the individual within an exclusion category, we can convert the recall to a standard recall.
