 INDIVIDUAL  may  be paroled pursuant to subdivision one of section 70.40
 of the penal law, a member or members as determined by the rules of  the
 board  shall  personally interview such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 and determine whether he OR SHE should be paroled in accordance with the
 guidelines adopted pursuant to subdivision four of section  two  hundred
 fifty-nine-c of this article. If parole is not granted upon such review,
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be informed in writing within
 two  weeks of such appearance of the factors and reasons for such denial
 of parole. Such reasons shall be given in detail and not  in  conclusory
 terms.  The  board shall specify a date not more than twenty-four months
 from such determination for reconsideration, and the  procedures  to  be
 followed  upon reconsideration shall be the same. If the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL is released, he OR SHE shall be given a copy  of  the
 conditions of parole. Such conditions shall where appropriate, include a
 requirement that the parolee comply with any restitution order, mandato-
 ry  surcharge, sex offender registration fee and DNA databank fee previ-
 ously imposed by a court of competent jurisdiction that applies  to  the
 parolee.  The  conditions  shall  indicate  which restitution collection

 graph (i) of this paragraph unless such [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVID-

 S. 3332                             6
 
 UAL'S scheduled presumptive release is forfeited, canceled, or rescinded
 subsequently as provided in such law. In such event, the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL shall appear before the board for  release  consider-
 ation  as  provided in subparagraph (i) of this paragraph as soon there-
 after as is practicable.
   (c) (A) Discretionary release on parole shall not be granted merely as
 a reward for good conduct  or  efficient  performance  of  duties  while
 confined  but  after  considering  if  there is a reasonable probability
 that, if such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is released,  he  OR  SHE
 will  live and remain at liberty without violating the law, and that his
 OR HER release is not incompatible with the welfare of society and  will
 not  so  deprecate  the  seriousness of his OR HER crime as to undermine
 respect for law. In making the parole release decision,  the  procedures
 adopted pursuant to subdivision four of section two hundred fifty-nine-c
 of  this article shall require that the following be considered: (i) the
 institutional  record  including  program  goals  and   accomplishments,

 ments, therapy and interactions with staff  and  [inmates]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS;  (ii)  performance, if any, as a participant in a temporary
 release program; (iii)  release  plans  including  community  resources,
 employment, education and training and support services available to the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL; (iv) any deportation order issued by
 the federal government  against  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 while  in the custody of the department and any recommendation regarding
 deportation made by the  commissioner  of  the  department  pursuant  to
 section  one  hundred forty-seven of the correction law; (v) any current
 or prior statement made to the board by the crime victim or the victim's
 representative, where the crime victim is deceased  or  is  mentally  or
 physically incapacitated; (vi) the length of the determinate sentence to
 which  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL would be subject had he or
 she received a sentence pursuant to section 70.70 or  section  70.71  of
 the  penal  law  for  a  felony defined in article two hundred twenty or
 article two hundred twenty-one of the penal law; (vii)  the  seriousness
 of the offense with due consideration to the type of sentence, length of
 sentence  and  recommendations  of  the  sentencing  court, the district
 attorney, the attorney for the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL,  the
 pre-sentence probation report as well as consideration of any mitigating
 and  aggravating  factors,  and  activities  following  arrest  prior to
 confinement; and (viii) prior criminal record, including the nature  and
 pattern  of  offenses,  adjustment  to  any previous probation or parole
 supervision and institutional confinement. The board shall provide  toll
 free  telephone  access for crime victims. In the case of an oral state-
 ment made in accordance with subdivision one of section  440.50  of  the
 criminal  procedure law, the parole board member shall present a written
 report of the statement to the parole board. A crime victim's  represen-
 tative  shall  mean  the  crime victim's closest surviving relative, the
 committee or guardian of such person, or the legal representative of any
 such person.  Such statement submitted by the victim or victim's  repre-
 sentative may include information concerning threatening or intimidating
 conduct  toward the victim, the victim's representative, or the victim's
 family, made by the person sentenced and occurring after the sentencing.
 Such information may include, but need not be limited to, the  threaten-
 ing or intimidating conduct of any other person who or which is directed
 by  the  person  sentenced.  Any  statement  by a victim or the victim's
 representative made to the board shall be maintained by  the  department
 in  the file provided to the board when interviewing the [inmate] INCAR-

 S. 3332                             7
 
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL in consideration of release.  A  victim  or  victim's
 representative who has submitted a written request to the department for
 the  transcript  of  such interview shall be provided such transcript as
 soon as it becomes available.
   (B)  Where  a  crime  victim  or victim's representative as defined in
 subparagraph (A) of this paragraph,  or  other  person  submits  to  the
 parole  board  a written statement concerning the release of an [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, the parole board shall keep  that  individual's
 name and address confidential.
   (d)  (i) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c)
 of this subdivision, after  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  has
 served  his  OR HER minimum period of imprisonment imposed by the court,
 or at any time after the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S period  of
 imprisonment has commenced for an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serv-
 ing  a  determinate or indeterminate term of imprisonment, provided that
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL has had a final order  of  deporta-
 tion  issued  against  him OR HER and provided further that the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is not convicted of either an A-I felony offense
 other than an A-I felony offense as defined in article two hundred twen-
 ty of the penal law or a violent felony offense as  defined  in  section
 70.02  of  the  penal  law,  if  the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is
 subject to deportation by the United States Bureau  of  Immigration  and
 Customs  Enforcement, in addition to the criteria set forth in paragraph
 (c) of this subdivision, the board may consider, as a factor  warranting
 earlier  release,  the  fact  that such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 will be deported, and may grant parole from an indeterminate sentence or
 release for deportation from a determinate  sentence  to  such  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  conditioned  specifically on his OR HER prompt
 deportation. The board may make such conditional grant of  early  parole
 from  an indeterminate sentence or release for deportation from a deter-
 minate sentence only where it has received from the United States Bureau
 of Immigration and Customs Enforcement assurance (A) that  an  order  of
 deportation  will  be  executed  or  that  proceedings  will promptly be
 commenced for the purpose of deportation upon release  of  the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  from  the custody of the department of correc-
 tional services, and (B) that the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL,  if
 granted  parole  or  release for deportation pursuant to this paragraph,
 will not be released from the custody of the  United  States  Bureau  of
 Immigration  and Customs Enforcement, unless such release be as a result
 of deportation without providing the board a reasonable  opportunity  to
 arrange for execution of its warrant for the retaking of such person.
   (ii)  An  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who has been granted parole
 from an indeterminate sentence or release for deportation from a  deter-
 minate  sentence  pursuant  to  this paragraph shall be delivered to the
 custody of the United States Bureau of Immigration and Customs  Enforce-
 ment  along  with  the  board's  warrant  for  his OR HER retaking to be
 executed in the event of his release from such  custody  other  than  by
 deportation.  In  the  event that such person is not deported, the board
 shall execute the warrant, effect his  return  to  imprisonment  in  the
 custody  of  the  department  and  within  sixty days after such return,
 provided that the person is serving an indeterminate  sentence  and  the
 minimum period of imprisonment has been served, personally interview him
 OR  HER  to  determine whether he OR SHE should be paroled in accordance
 with the provisions of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this  subdivision.
 The  return of a person granted parole from an indeterminate sentence or
 release for deportation from a determinate  sentence  pursuant  to  this

 S. 3332                             8
 
 paragraph  for  the  reason set forth herein shall not be deemed to be a
 parole delinquency and the interruptions specified in subdivision  three
 of section 70.40 of the penal law shall not apply, but the time spent in
 the  custody  of  the  United  States  Bureau of Immigration and Customs
 Enforcement shall be credited  against  the  term  of  the  sentence  in
 accordance  with  the  rules specified in paragraph (c) of that subdivi-
 sion. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL granted parole from an indeterminate sentence or release
 for deportation from a determinate sentence pursuant to  this  paragraph
 who  is  subsequently  committed  to  imprisonment in the custody of the
 department for a felony offense committed after release pursuant to this
 paragraph shall have his parole eligibility date  on  the  indeterminate
 sentence  for  the new felony offense, or his OR HER conditional release
 date on the determinate sentence for the new felony offense, as the case
 may be, extended by the amount of time between the date  on  which  such
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL was released from imprisonment in the
 custody of the department pursuant to this paragraph  and  the  date  on
 which   such  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  would  otherwise  have
 completed service of the minimum period of  imprisonment  on  the  prior
 felony offense.
   (e) Notwithstanding the requirements of paragraph (a) of this subdivi-
 sion,  the  determination  to parole an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 who has successfully completed the shock incarceration program  pursuant
 to  section  eight hundred sixty-seven of the correction law may be made
 without a personal interview of the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and
 shall be made in accordance with procedures set forth in  the  rules  of
 the board. If parole is not granted, the time period for reconsideration
 shall not exceed the court imposed minimum.
   (d)  If  a finding of probable cause is made pursuant to this subdivi-
 sion either by a determination at a preliminary hearing or by the waiver
 thereof, or if the releasee has been convicted  of  a  new  crime  while
 under  presumptive  release, parole, conditional release or post-release
 supervision, the board's rules shall  provide  for  (i)  declaring  such
 person to be delinquent as soon as practicable and shall require reason-
 able  and  appropriate action to make a final determination with respect
 to the alleged violation or (ii) ordering such person to be restored  to
 presumptive  release, parole, conditional release or post-release super-
 vision under such circumstances as it may deem appropriate or (iii) when
 a presumptive releasee, parolee, conditional releasee or person on post-
 release supervision has been convicted of a new felony  committed  while
 under  such  supervision and a new indeterminate or determinate sentence
 has been imposed, the board's rules shall provide for a  final  declara-
 tion  of delinquency. The [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall then be
 notified in writing that his OR HER release  has  been  revoked  on  the
 basis of the new conviction and a copy of the commitment shall accompany
 said notification. The [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S next appear-
 ance  before  the  board  shall be governed by the legal requirements of
 said new indeterminate or determinate sentence, or shall occur  as  soon
 after a final reversal of the conviction as is practicable.
   (b)  Upon an appeal to the board, the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 may be represented by an attorney. Where the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL is financially unable to provide for his  OR  HER  own  attorney,
 upon request an attorney shall be assigned pursuant to the provisions of
 subparagraph (v) of paragraph (f) of subdivision three of this section.
   (a) (i) The board shall provide for the making of a verbatim record of
 each  parole  release  interview,  except  where  a  decision is made to

 S. 3332                             9
 
 release the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to parole supervision,  and
 each  preliminary and final revocation hearing, except when the decision
 of the presiding officer after such hearings result in  a  dismissal  of
 all  charged  violations  of parole, conditional release or post release
 supervision.
   (ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (i) of this  para-
 graph,  the  board  shall provide for the making of a verbatim record of
 each parole release interview in  all  proceedings  where  the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  a  detained  sex  offender as such term is
 defined in subdivision (g) of section 10.03 of the mental  hygiene  law.
 Such  record shall be provided to the office of mental health for use by
 the multidisciplinary staff  and  the  case  review  panel  pursuant  to
 section 10.05 of the mental hygiene law.
   §  11-a.  Paragraph (a) of subdivision 2 and paragraph (d) of subdivi-
 sion 3 of section 259-i of the executive law, paragraph (a) of  subdivi-
 sion 2 as amended by section 38-f-2 of subpart A of part C of chapter 62
 of  the  laws  of  2011 and paragraph (d) of subdivision 3 as amended by
 chapter 413 of the laws of 1984, are amended to read as follows:
   (a) At least one month prior to the expiration of the  minimum  period
 or  periods  of  imprisonment  fixed  by the court or board, a member or
 members as determined by the rules of the board shall personally  inter-
 view  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  serving  an  indeterminate
 sentence and determine whether he OR SHE should be paroled at the  expi-
 ration  of  the  minimum period or periods in accordance with the proce-
 dures adopted pursuant  to  subdivision  four  of  section  two  hundred
 fifty-nine-c OF THIS ARTICLE. If parole is not granted upon such review,
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be informed in writing within
 two  weeks of such appearance of the factors and reasons for such denial
 of parole. Such reasons shall be given in detail and not  in  conclusory
 terms.  The  board shall specify a date not more than twenty-four months
 from such determination for reconsideration, and the  procedures  to  be
 followed  upon reconsideration shall be the same. If the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL is released, he OR SHE shall be given a copy  of  the
 conditions of parole. Such conditions shall where appropriate, include a
 requirement  that  the  parolee  comply  with  any restitution order and
 mandatory surcharge previously imposed by a court of competent jurisdic-
 tion that applies to the parolee. The conditions  shall  indicate  which
 restitution  collection  agency  established  under subdivision eight of
 section 420.10 of the criminal procedure law, shall be  responsible  for
 collection  of  restitution  and  mandatory surcharge as provided for in
 section 60.35 of the penal law and section eighteen hundred nine of  the
 vehicle and traffic law.
   (d)  If  a finding of probable cause is made pursuant to this subdivi-
 sion either by determination at a preliminary hearing or by  the  waiver
 thereof,  or  if  the  releasee  has been convicted of a new crime while
 under his present parole or conditional release supervision, the board's
 rules shall provide for (i) declaring such person to  be  delinquent  as
 soon  as practicable and shall require reasonable and appropriate action
 to make a final determination with respect to the alleged  violation  or
 (ii)  ordering  such  person  to be restored to parole supervision under
 such circumstances as it may deem appropriate or (iii) when a parolee or
 conditional releasee has been convicted of a new felony committed  while
 under his OR HER present parole or conditional release supervision and a
 new  indeterminate  sentence  has  been imposed, the board's rules shall
 provide for a final declaration of delinquency. The [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL shall then be notified in writing that his OR HER  release

 S. 3332                            10
 
 has  been  revoked  on the basis of the new conviction and a copy of the
 commitment shall accompany said notification. The [inmate's] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL'S next appearance before the board shall  be  governed  by
 the  legal  requirements  of  said  new indeterminate sentence, or shall
 occur as soon after a final reversal of the conviction as  is  practica-
 ble.
   §  12. Subdivision 3 of section 259-k of the executive law, as amended
 by section 38-i of subpart A of part C of chapter  62  of  the  laws  of
 2011, is amended to read as follows:
   3.  Members  of the board and officers and employees of the department
 providing community supervision services and designated by  the  commis-
 sioner  shall have free access to all [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS
 confined in institutions under the jurisdiction of the  department,  the
 office  of  children  and  family  services and the department of mental
 hygiene in order to enable them to perform  their  functions,  provided,
 however,  that the department of mental hygiene may temporarily restrict
 such access where it determines, for significant clinical reasons,  that
 such  access would interfere with its care and treatment of the mentally
 ill [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.  If under the provisions  of  this
 subdivision  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is not accessible for
 release consideration by the board, that [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVID-
 UAL  shall be scheduled to see the board in the month immediately subse-
 quent to the month within which he OR SHE was not available.
   § 13. Subdivision 1 of section 259-l of the executive law, as  amended
 by chapter 26 of the laws of 2018, is amended to read as follows:
   1.  It shall be the duty of the commissioner of corrections and commu-
 nity supervision to ensure  that  all  officers  and  employees  of  the
 department  shall  at  all  times cooperate with the board of parole and
 shall furnish to such members of the board and employees  of  the  board
 such  information  as may be appropriate to enable them to perform their
 independent decision making functions. It is also his  or  her  duty  to
 ensure that the functions of the board of parole are not hampered in any
 way,  including but not limited to: a restriction of resources including
 staff assistance; limited access to vital information; and  presentation
 of  [inmate]  AN  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S information in a manner that
 may inappropriately influence the board in its decision making. Where an
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL has appeared before the board prior  to
 having  completed  any  program  assigned  by  the  department, and such
 program remains incomplete by no  fault  of  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL,  and  where  the board has denied such [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL release pursuant to  paragraph  (a)  of  subdivision  two  of
 section  two  hundred fifty-nine-i of this article, the department shall
 prioritize such [inmate's] AN INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S  placement  into
 the assigned program.
   §  14.  The  section  heading,  subdivisions 1 and 2, paragraph (b) of
 subdivision 4 and subdivisions 5, 9, 10 and 11 of section 259-r  of  the
 executive  law, the section heading, subdivisions 1 and 2, paragraph (b)
 of subdivision 4, and subdivisions 5 and 9 as amended by section 38-l of
 subpart A of part C of chapter 62 of the laws of 2011  and  subdivisions
 10  and  11 as added by section 1 of part A of chapter 55 of the laws of
 2015, are amended to read as follows:
   Release on medical parole for terminally  ill  [inmates]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS. 1. (a) The board shall have the power to release on medical
 parole  any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serving an indeterminate or
 determinate sentence of imprisonment who, pursuant to subdivision two of
 this section, has been certified to be suffering from a terminal  condi-

 S. 3332                            11
 
 tion,  disease  or syndrome and to be so debilitated or incapacitated as
 to create a reasonable probability that  he  or  she  is  physically  or
 cognitively  incapable  of  presenting  any danger to society, provided,
 however,  that  no  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serving a sentence
 imposed upon a conviction for murder in the first degree or  an  attempt
 or conspiracy to commit murder in the first degree shall be eligible for
 such  release,  and provided further that no [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL serving a sentence imposed upon  a  conviction  for  any  of  the
 following offenses shall be eligible for such release unless in the case
 of  an  indeterminate sentence he or she has served at least one-half of
 the minimum period of the sentence and in  the  case  of  a  determinate
 sentence  he  or  she has served at least one-half of the term of his or
 her determinate sentence:  murder in the second degree, manslaughter  in
 the  first  degree, any offense defined in article one hundred thirty of
 the penal law or an attempt to commit any of these offenses. Solely  for
 the  purpose  of determining medical parole eligibility pursuant to this
 section, such one-half  of  the  minimum  period  of  the  indeterminate
 sentence  and one-half of the term of the determinate sentence shall not
 be credited with any time served under the jurisdiction of  the  depart-
 ment  prior to the commencement of such sentence pursuant to the opening
 paragraph of subdivision one of section 70.30 of the penal law or subdi-
 vision two-a of section 70.30 of the penal law,  except  to  the  extent
 authorized by subdivision three of section 70.30 of the penal law.
   (b)  Such  release  shall  be  granted  only after the board considers
 whether, in light of the [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  medical
 condition, there is a reasonable probability that the [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUAL,  if  released, will live and remain at liberty without
 violating the law, and that such release is not  incompatible  with  the
 welfare  of  society  and  will  not so deprecate the seriousness of the
 crime as to undermine respect for the law, and shall be subject  to  the
 limits  and  conditions  specified  in subdivision four of this section.
 Except as set forth in paragraph (a) of this subdivision,  such  release
 may be granted at any time during the term of an [inmate's] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL'S sentence, notwithstanding any other provision of law.
   (c)  The  board  shall  afford  notice  to  the  sentencing court, the
 district attorney and the attorney for the [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL that the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is being considered for
 release  pursuant to this section and the parties receiving notice shall
 have fifteen days to comment on the release of the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL. Release on medical parole shall not  be  granted  until  the
 expiration of the comment period provided for in this paragraph.
   2.  (a)  The  commissioner, on the commissioner's own initiative or at
 the request of an [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL,  or  an  [inmate's]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  spouse,  relative  or  attorney, may, in the
 exercise of the commissioner's discretion, direct that an  investigation
 be  undertaken  to  determine  whether  a diagnosis should be made of an
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who appears  to  be  suffering  from  a
 terminal  condition,  disease  or  syndrome.  Any such medical diagnosis
 shall be made by a physician licensed to practice medicine in this state
 pursuant to section sixty-five hundred twenty-four of the education law.
 Such physician shall either be employed by the department, shall  render
 professional  services  at  the  request  of the department, or shall be
 employed by a hospital or medical facility used by  the  department  for
 the medical treatment of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS. The diagno-
 sis  shall  be  reported to the commissioner and shall include but shall
 not be limited to a description of the terminal  condition,  disease  or

 S. 3332                            12

 syndrome  suffered  by the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, a prognosis
 concerning the likelihood that the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL will
 not recover  from  such  terminal  condition,  disease  or  syndrome,  a
 description  of  the  [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S physical or
 cognitive incapacity which shall include  a  prediction  respecting  the
 likely  duration  of the incapacity, and a statement by the physician of
 whether the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is so debilitated or  inca-
 pacitated as to be severely restricted in his or her ability to self-am-
 bulate or to perform significant normal activities of daily living. This
 report  also  shall  include  a  recommendation of the type and level of
 services  and  treatment  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  would
 require  if granted medical parole and a recommendation for the types of
 settings in which the services and treatment should be given.
   (b) The commissioner, or the commissioner's designee, shall review the
 diagnosis and may certify that the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is
 suffering from such terminal condition, disease or syndrome and that the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL is so debilitated or incapacitated as
 to create a reasonable probability that  he  or  she  is  physically  or
 cognitively  incapable  of  presenting  any  danger  to  society. If the
 commissioner does not so certify then the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL shall not be referred to the board for consideration for release  on
 medical  parole.  If  the commissioner does so certify, then the commis-
 sioner shall, within seven working days of receipt  of  such  diagnosis,
 refer  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to the board for consider-
 ation for release on medical parole. However, no  such  referral  of  an
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL to the board shall be made unless the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL has been examined by  a  physician  and
 diagnosed  as having a terminal condition, disease or syndrome as previ-
 ously described herein at some time subsequent to such [inmate's] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL'S admission to a facility operated by the  department
 of correctional services.
   (c)  When  the commissioner refers an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 to the board, the commissioner  shall  provide  an  appropriate  medical
 discharge  plan established by the department. The department is author-
 ized to request assistance from the department of health  and  from  the
 county in which the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL resided and commit-
 ted his or her crime, which shall provide assistance with respect to the
 development  and implementation of a discharge plan, including potential
 placements of a releasee. The department and the  department  of  health
 shall  jointly develop standards for the medical discharge plan that are
 appropriately adapted to the criminal justice setting, based  on  stand-
 ards  established  by  the  department  of  health  for hospital medical
 discharge  planning.  The  board  may  postpone  its  decision   pending
 completion  of  an adequate discharge plan, or may deny release based on
 inadequacy of the discharge plan.
   (b) The board shall require as  a  condition  of  release  on  medical
 parole  that  the releasee agree to remain under the care of a physician
 while on medical parole and in a hospital established pursuant to  arti-
 cle  twenty-eight of the public health law, a hospice established pursu-
 ant to article forty of the public health law  or  any  other  placement
 that  can  provide  appropriate medical care as specified in the medical
 discharge plan required by subdivision two of this section. The  medical
 discharge  plan  shall  state that the availability of the placement has
 been confirmed, and by whom. Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
 when an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who qualifies for release under
 this section is cognitively incapable of signing the requisite  documen-

 S. 3332                            13
 
 tation  to  effectuate  the medical discharge plan and, after a diligent
 search no person has been identified who could otherwise be appointed as
 the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S guardian by a court  of  compe-
 tent  jurisdiction,  then,  solely  for  the purpose of implementing the
 medical discharge plan, the facility health  services  director  at  the
 facility  where the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is currently incar-
 cerated shall be lawfully empowered to act as the [inmate's] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL'S guardian for the purpose  of  effectuating  the  medical
 discharge.
   5.  A  denial  of  release  on medical parole or expiration of medical
 parole in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (f) of subdivision
 four of this section shall not preclude the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL  from  reapplying  for  medical  parole  or  otherwise  affect an
 [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S eligibility for any other  form  of
 release provided for by law.
   9.  The  chairman shall report annually to the governor, the temporary
 president of the senate and the speaker  of  the  assembly,  the  chair-
 persons  of the assembly and senate codes committees, the chairperson of
 the senate crime and corrections committee, and the chairperson  of  the
 assembly  corrections  committee  the  number  of [inmates] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS who have applied for medical parole;  the  number  who  have
 been  granted  medical  parole;  the nature of the illness of the appli-
 cants, the counties to which they have been released and the  nature  of
 the  placement pursuant to the medical discharge plan; the categories of
 reasons for denial for those who have been denied; the number of releas-
 ees who have been granted an additional period  or  periods  of  medical
 parole and the number of such grants; the number of releasees on medical
 parole  who  have  been  returned  to imprisonment in the custody of the
 department and the reasons for return.
   10. Notwithstanding any other provision of law,  in  the  case  of  an
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  whose terminal condition, disease or
 syndrome meets the criteria for medical parole as set forth in paragraph
 (a) of subdivision one of  this  section,  and  who  is  not  serving  a
 sentence for one or more offenses set forth in paragraph (i) of subdivi-
 sion  one of section eight hundred six of the correction law which would
 render such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL ineligible for  presumptive
 release,  the  granting  of  medical  parole  shall be determined by the
 commissioner provided that a release of such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL shall be in accordance with subdivision eleven of  this  section.
 In  such  case, the provisions that would have applied to and the proce-
 dures that would have been followed by the board of parole  pursuant  to
 this section shall apply to and be followed by the commissioner.
   11.  (a)  After  the  commissioner  has  made a determination to grant
 medical parole pursuant to subdivision ten of this section, the  commis-
 sioner  shall  notify  the  chairperson of the board of parole, or their
 designee who shall be a member of the board of parole, and  provide  him
 or  her with all relevant records, files, information and documentation,
 which includes but is not limited to the criminal history, medical diag-
 nosis and treatment pertaining to the terminally ill [inmate]  INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUAL  no  more  than five days from the date of the determi-
 nation. (b) The chairperson or his or her designee shall  either  accept
 the  commissioner's  grant of medical parole, in which case the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL may be released by the commissioner, or  conduct
 further  review.  This decision or review shall be made within five days
 of the receipt of the relevant records, files, information and  documen-
 tation  from  the  commissioner.  The  chairperson's  further review may

 S. 3332                            14
 
 include, but not be limited to, an  appearance  by  the  terminally  ill
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  before the chairperson or his or her
 designee. (c) After this further review, the  chairperson  shall  either
 accept  the  commissioner's  grant  of medical parole, in which case the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL may be released by the commissioner, or
 the chairperson shall schedule an  appearance  for  the  terminally  ill
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL before the board of parole.
   In  the  event  the terminally ill [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is
 scheduled to make an appearance before the board of parole  pursuant  to
 this  subdivision,  the  matter  shall be heard by a panel that does not
 include the chairperson or any member of the board  of  parole  who  was
 involved in the review of the commissioner's determination.
   §  14-a. Paragraph (a) of subdivision 1 of section 259-r of the execu-
 tive law, as amended by section 38-l-1 of subpart A of part C of chapter
 62 of the laws of 2011, is amended to read as follows:
   (a) The board shall have the power to release on  medical  parole  any
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serving an indeterminate or determinate
 sentence  of  imprisonment  who,  pursuant  to  subdivision  two of this
 section, has been certified to be suffering from a  terminal  condition,
 disease  or  syndrome  and  to  be so debilitated or incapacitated as to
 create a reasonable probability that he or she is physically  or  cogni-
 tively incapable of presenting any danger to society, provided, however,
 that no [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serving a sentence imposed upon
 a  conviction for murder in the first degree or an attempt or conspiracy
 to commit murder in the first degree shall be eligible for such release,
 and provided further that no [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serving  a
 sentence  imposed  upon  a  conviction for any of the following offenses
 shall be eligible for such release unless in the case of  an  indetermi-
 nate  sentence  he  or  she  has served at least one-half of the minimum
 period of the sentence and in the case of a determinate sentence  he  or
 she  has  served at least one-half of the term of his or her determinate
 sentence:   murder in the  second  degree,  manslaughter  in  the  first
 degree,  any  offense defined in article one hundred thirty of the penal
 law or an attempt to commit  any  of  these  offenses.  Solely  for  the
 purpose  of  determining  medical  parole  eligibility  pursuant to this
 section, such one-half  of  the  minimum  period  of  the  indeterminate
 sentence  and one-half of the term of the determinate sentence shall not
 be credited with any time served under the jurisdiction of  the  depart-
 ment  prior to the commencement of such sentence pursuant to the opening
 paragraph of subdivision one of section 70.30 of the penal law or subdi-
 vision two-a of section 70.30 of the penal law,  except  to  the  extent
 authorized by subdivision three of section 70.30 of the penal law.
   §  15.  Section 259-s of the executive law, as amended by section 38-m
 of subpart A of part C of chapter 62 of the laws of 2011, is amended  to
 read as follows:
   § 259-s. Release on medical parole for [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UALS  suffering  significant  debilitating  illnesses.  1. (a) The board
 shall have the power to release on medical parole any [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL serving an  indeterminate  or  determinate  sentence  of
 imprisonment  who, pursuant to subdivision two of this section, has been
 certified to be suffering from a significant and permanent  non-terminal
 condition,  disease or syndrome that has rendered the [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL so physically or cognitively  debilitated  or  incapaci-
 tated  as  to  create  a  reasonable probability that he or she does not
 present any danger to  society,  provided,  however,  that  no  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL serving a sentence imposed upon a conviction for

 S. 3332                            15
 
 murder  in the first degree or an attempt or conspiracy to commit murder
 in the first degree shall be eligible for  such  release,  and  provided
 further  that  no  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL serving a sentence
 imposed  upon  a  conviction  for any of the following offenses shall be
 eligible for such  release  unless  in  the  case  of  an  indeterminate
 sentence he or she has served at least one-half of the minimum period of
 the  sentence  and  in  the case of a determinate sentence he or she has
 served at least one-half of the term of his or her determinate sentence:
 murder in the second degree,  manslaughter  in  the  first  degree,  any
 offense  defined  in  article  one hundred thirty of the penal law or an
 attempt to commit any of these  offenses.  Solely  for  the  purpose  of
 determining  medical  parole  eligibility pursuant to this section, such
 one-half of the minimum period of the indeterminate  sentence  and  one-
 half  of the term of the determinate sentence shall not be credited with
 any time served under the jurisdiction of the department  prior  to  the
 commencement  of  such  sentence  pursuant  to  the opening paragraph of
 subdivision one of section 70.30 of the penal law or  subdivision  two-a
 of  section  70.30  of the penal law, except to the extent authorized by
 subdivision three of section 70.30 of the penal law.
   (b) Such release shall be  granted  only  after  the  board  considers
 whether,  in  light  of the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S medical
 condition, there is a reasonable probability that the [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL, if released, will live and remain  at  liberty  without
 violating  the  law,  and that such release is not incompatible with the
 welfare of society and will not so  deprecate  the  seriousness  of  the
 crime  as  to undermine respect for the law, and shall be subject to the
 limits and conditions specified in subdivision four of this section.  In
 making  this determination, the board shall consider: (i) the nature and
 seriousness of the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S crime; (ii)  the
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  prior criminal record; (iii) the
 [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S disciplinary, behavioral and  reha-
 bilitative  record during the term of his or her incarceration; (iv) the
 amount of time the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  must  serve  before
 becoming  eligible  for  release  pursuant to section two hundred fifty-
 nine-i of this article; (v) the current age of the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL and his or her age at the time of the crime; (vi) the  recom-
 mendations of the sentencing court, the district attorney and the victim
 or  the  victim's  representative;  (vii)  the  nature of the [inmate's]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S medical condition, disease or syndrome and the
 extent of medical treatment or care that the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL will require as a result of that condition, disease or  syndrome;
 and  (viii)  any other relevant factor. Except as set forth in paragraph
 (a) of this subdivision, such release may be granted at any time  during
 the  term  of an [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S sentence, notwith-
 standing any other provision of law.
   (c) The board  shall  afford  notice  to  the  sentencing  court,  the
 district attorney, the attorney for the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 and,  where necessary pursuant to subdivision two of section two hundred
 fifty-nine-i of this article, the crime victim, that the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL is being considered  for  release  pursuant  to  this
 section  and  the  parties  receiving  notice  shall have thirty days to
 comment on the release of the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.  Release
 on  medical  parole  shall  not  be  granted until the expiration of the
 comment period provided for in this paragraph.
   2. (a) The commissioner, on the commissioner's own  initiative  or  at
 the  request  of  an  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, or an [inmate's]

 S. 3332                            16
 
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S spouse, relative  or  attorney,  may,  in  the
 exercise  of the commissioner's discretion, direct that an investigation
 be undertaken to determine whether a diagnosis  should  be  made  of  an
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who  appears  to be suffering from a
 significant and permanent  non-terminal  and  incapacitating  condition,
 disease  or  syndrome.  Any  such  medical  diagnosis shall be made by a
 physician licensed to  practice  medicine  in  this  state  pursuant  to
 section sixty-five hundred twenty-four of the education law. Such physi-
 cian  shall  either  be employed by the department, shall render profes-
 sional services at the request of the department, or shall  be  employed
 by a hospital or medical facility used by the department for the medical
 treatment  of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS. The diagnosis shall be
 reported to the commissioner and shall include but shall not be  limited
 to  a  description of the condition, disease or syndrome suffered by the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, a prognosis concerning the  likelihood
 that  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL will not recover from such
 condition, disease or syndrome, a description of the  [inmate's]  INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  physical  or  cognitive  incapacity  which  shall
 include a prediction respecting the likely duration of  the  incapacity,
 and  a  statement  by the physician of whether the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  is  so  debilitated  or  incapacitated  as  to  be  severely
 restricted  in his or her ability to self-ambulate or to perform signif-
 icant normal activities of daily living. This report also shall  include
 a  recommendation  of  the  type and level of services and treatment the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL would require if granted medical parole
 and a recommendation for the types of settings in which the services and
 treatment should be given.
   (b) The commissioner, or the commissioner's designee, shall review the
 diagnosis and may certify that the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is
 suffering from such condition, disease or syndrome and that the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL is so debilitated or incapacitated as to create
 a reasonable probability that he or she  is  physically  or  cognitively
 incapable of presenting any danger to society.  If the commissioner does
 not  so  certify  then the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall not be
 referred to the board for consideration for release on  medical  parole.
 If the commissioner does so certify, then the commissioner shall, within
 seven  working  days  of  receipt  of such diagnosis, refer the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to the board for consideration  for  release  on
 medical  parole.  However,  no such referral of an [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL to the board of parole shall  be  made  unless  the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  has been examined by a physician and diagnosed
 as having a condition, disease or syndrome as previously described here-
 in at some time subsequent to such [inmate's] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S
 admission to a facility operated by the department.
   (c)  When  the commissioner refers an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 to the board, the commissioner  shall  provide  an  appropriate  medical
 discharge  plan established by the department. The department is author-
 ized to request assistance from the department of health  and  from  the
 county in which the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL resided and commit-
 ted his or her crime, which shall provide assistance with respect to the
 development  and implementation of a discharge plan, including potential
 placements of a releasee. The department and the  department  of  health
 shall  jointly develop standards for the medical discharge plan that are
 appropriately adapted to the criminal justice setting, based  on  stand-
 ards  established  by  the  department  of  health  for hospital medical
 discharge  planning.  The  board  may  postpone  its  decision   pending

 S. 3332                            17
 
 completion  of  an adequate discharge plan, or may deny release based on
 inadequacy of the discharge plan.
   3.  Any certification by the commissioner or the commissioner's desig-
 nee pursuant to this section shall be deemed  a  judicial  function  and
 shall not be reviewable if done in accordance with law.
   4.  (a) Medical parole granted pursuant to this section shall be for a
 period of six months.
   (b) The board shall require as  a  condition  of  release  on  medical
 parole  that  the releasee agree to remain under the care of a physician
 while on medical parole and in a hospital established pursuant to  arti-
 cle  twenty-eight of the public health law, a hospice established pursu-
 ant to article forty of the public health law or  any  other  placement,
 including  a residence with family or others, that can provide appropri-
 ate medical care as specified in the medical discharge plan required  by
 subdivision  two of this section. The medical discharge plan shall state
 that the availability of the placement has been confirmed, and by  whom.
 Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when an [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL who qualifies for release under this section is cognitive-
 ly  incapable  of  signing the requisite documentation to effectuate the
 medical discharge plan and, after a diligent search no person  has  been
 identified  who could otherwise be appointed as the [inmate's] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL'S guardian by a court of competent  jurisdiction,  then,
 solely  for  the purpose of implementing the medical discharge plan, the
 facility health services director at the  facility  where  the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  currently  incarcerated  shall be lawfully
 empowered to act as the [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  guardian
 for the purpose of effectuating the medical discharge.
   (c)  Where  appropriate,  the  board  shall  require as a condition of
 release that medical parolees be supervised on  intensive  caseloads  at
 reduced supervision ratios.
   (d)  The  board  shall  require  as  a condition of release on medical
 parole that the releasee undergo periodic  medical  examinations  and  a
 medical  examination  at  least one month prior to the expiration of the
 period of medical parole and, for the  purposes  of  making  a  decision
 pursuant to paragraph (e) of this subdivision, that the releasee provide
 the  board  with  a  report,  prepared by the treating physician, of the
 results of such examination. Such report shall specifically state wheth-
 er or not the parolee continues to suffer from a significant and  perma-
 nent  non-terminal and debilitating condition, disease, or syndrome, and
 to be so debilitated or incapacitated as to be  severely  restricted  in
 his  or  her  ability  to self-ambulate or to perform significant normal
 activities of daily living.
   (e) Prior to the expiration of the period of medical parole the  board
 shall review the medical examination report required by paragraph (d) of
 this  subdivision  and  may  again grant medical parole pursuant to this
 section; provided, however, that the  provisions  of  paragraph  (c)  of
 subdivision one and subdivision two of this section shall not apply.
   (f) If the updated medical report presented to the board states that a
 parolee released pursuant to this section is no longer so debilitated or
 incapacitated  as  to  create a reasonable probability that he or she is
 physically or cognitively incapable of presenting any danger to  society
 or  if  the releasee fails to submit the updated medical report then the
 board may not make a new grant of medical parole pursuant  to  paragraph
 (e)  of this subdivision. Where the board has not granted medical parole
 pursuant to such paragraph (e) the board shall promptly conduct  through
 one of its members, or cause to be conducted by a hearing officer desig-

 S. 3332                            18
 
 nated  by  the  board,  a  hearing  to determine whether the releasee is
 suffering from a significant and permanent non-terminal and incapacitat-
 ing condition, disease or syndrome and is so  debilitated  or  incapaci-
 tated as to create a reasonable probability that he or she is physically
 or  cognitively  incapable  of presenting any danger to society and does
 not present a danger to society. If the board makes such a determination
 then it may make a new grant of medical parole pursuant to the standards
 of paragraph (b) of subdivision one of this section. At the hearing, the
 releasee shall have the right to representation  by  counsel,  including
 the  right,  if the releasee is financially unable to retain counsel, to
 have the appropriate court assign counsel in accordance with the  county
 or  city plan for representation placed in operation pursuant to article
 eighteen-B of the county law.
   (g) The hearing and determination provided for  by  paragraph  (f)  of
 this  subdivision  shall  be  concluded  within  the six month period of
 medical parole. If the board does not renew the grant of medical parole,
 it shall order that the releasee be returned immediately to the  custody
 of the department of correctional services.
   (h)  In  addition to the procedures set forth in paragraph (f) of this
 subdivision, medical parole may be revoked at any time upon any  of  the
 grounds  specified  in paragraph (a) of subdivision three of section two
 hundred fifty-nine-i of this article, and in accordance with the  proce-
 dures specified in subdivision three of section two hundred fifty-nine-i
 of this article.
   (i)  A  releasee who is on medical parole and who becomes eligible for
 parole pursuant to the provisions of  subdivision  two  of  section  two
 hundred  fifty-nine-i  of  this  article  shall  be  eligible for parole
 consideration pursuant to such subdivision.
   5. A denial of release on medical  parole  or  expiration  of  medical
 parole in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (f) of subdivision
 four  of this section shall not preclude the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL from  reapplying  for  medical  parole  or  otherwise  affect  an
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S eligibility for any other form of
 release provided for by law.
   6. To the extent that any provision of this section  requires  disclo-
 sure of medical information for the purpose of processing an application
 or  making a decision, regarding release on medical parole or renewal of
 medical parole, or for the purpose of appropriately supervising a person
 released on medical parole, and that such disclosure would otherwise  be
 prohibited  by  article  twenty-seven-F  of  the  public health law, the
 provisions of this section shall be controlling.
   7. The commissioner and the chair of the board shall be authorized  to
 promulgate rules and regulations for their respective agencies to imple-
 ment the provisions of this section.
   8.  Any  decision  made  by  the board pursuant to this section may be
 appealed  pursuant  to  subdivision  four   of   section   two   hundred
 fifty-nine-i of this article.
   9.  The  chair of the board shall report annually to the governor, the
 temporary president of the senate and the speaker of the  assembly,  the
 chairpersons  of  the  assembly  and senate codes committees, the chair-
 person of the senate crime and corrections  committee,  and  the  chair-
 person  of  the  assembly  corrections committee the number of [inmates]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS who have applied for medical parole under  this
 section;  the number who have been granted medical parole; the nature of
 the illness of the applicants, the counties  to  which  they  have  been

 discharge plan; the categories of reasons for denial for those who  have
 been denied; the number of releasees who have been granted an additional
 period  or  periods of medical parole and the number of such grants; the
 number  of  releasees on medical parole who have been returned to impri-
 sonment in the custody of the department and the reasons for return.
   § 16. Paragraph b of subdivision 2 of section  265  of  the  executive
 law,  as  amended  by  section 31 of part A of chapter 56 of the laws of

 paragraph  and  added  these  words or by the first day of April of each
 subsequent year and shall be either approved or denied by the office  no
 later  than sixty days following such submission. Any part of the moneys
 so made available and not apportioned pursuant to a  plan  approved  and
 contract  entered  into  with the office within the time limits required
 shall be apportioned by the office in its discretion to such a  city  or
 counties on a need basis, taking into consideration [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL population or prior commitment by a county in the develop-
 ment of alternatives to detention or incarceration programs.
   § 17. Subdivision 7 of section 508 of the executive law, as amended by
 section  4  of  part  G of chapter 55 of the laws of 2020, is amended to

   7. While in the custody of the office of children and family services,
 an offender shall be subject to the rules and regulations of the office,
 except that his or her parole, temporary release and discharge shall  be
 governed by the laws applicable to [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS of
 state correctional facilities and his or her transfer to state hospitals
 in the office of mental health shall be governed by section five hundred
 nine  of  this  [article]  TITLE;  provided,  however, that an otherwise
 eligible offender may receive the six-month limited credit  time  allow-
 ance  for  successful participation in one or more programs developed by
 the office of children and family services that are  comparable  to  the
 programs  set  forth  in section eight hundred three-b of the correction
 law, taking into consideration the age of offenders. The commissioner of
 the office of children and family services shall, however, establish and
 operate temporary release programs at  office  of  children  and  family
 services  facilities  for  eligible  juvenile  offenders  and adolescent
 offenders and contract with the department of corrections and  community
 supervision  for the provision of parole supervision services for tempo-
 rary releasees. The rules and regulations for these programs  shall  not
 be  inconsistent  with  the  laws  for  temporary  release applicable to
 [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS of state correctional facilities. For
 the purposes of temporary release programs for  juvenile  offenders  and

 one hundred sixteen of the correction law  or  deposits  in  a  prisoner
 account to the credit of the prisoner pursuant to section five hundred-c
 of the correction law; or

 pursuant to section five hundred-c of the correction law.  In  addition,
 where  the  civil  action  involves funds of a convicted person and such

 obtained in a civil action, a judgment obtained pursuant to this section
 may not be subject to execution or enforcement against a portion thereof
 in  accordance with subdivision (k) of section fifty-two hundred five of
 the civil practice law and rules. If an action is filed pursuant to this
 subdivision after the expiration of all  other  applicable  statutes  of

 prevention of the transmission of HIV and HCV and the treatment of AIDS,
 HIV and HCV among [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS.  Such review shall

 policy or  practice  is  consistent  with  current,  generally  accepted
 medical standards and procedures used to prevent the transmission of HIV
 and  HCV  and  to  treat  AIDS, HIV and HCV among the general public. In
 performing such reviews, in order to determine the quality and  adequacy

 cates, of the scheduled review and invite them to  provide  the  commis-
 sioner  with  relevant  information. Upon the completion of such review,
 the department shall, in writing, approve such  policy  or  practice  as
 instituted  in  facilities operated by the department of corrections and

 conditions as the commissioner shall prescribe,  as  public  information
 available for public inspection.

 interest.
   7. The county or city maintaining the institution from which [inmates]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS are removed pursuant to subdivision one of this

 corrections and community supervision; and
   (b) The cost of maintaining any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in  a

 S. 3332                            78
 
 government that maintains such institution. Such cost shall be the actu-
 al per capita daily cost, as certified  to  the  state  commissioner  of

   §  145.  Section 94 of the correction law, as amended by section 13 of
 subpart B of part C of chapter 62 of the laws of  2011,  is  amended  to
 read as follows:
   §  94.  Use of local government institutions for residential treatment
 of persons under the custody of the state department of corrections  and
 community  supervision.    1.  The state commissioner of corrections and
 community supervision is hereby  authorized  to  transfer  any  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL under the care or custody of the department who
 is eligible to be transferred to a residential treatment facility  under
 section  seventy-three  of this chapter to any county jail, workhouse or
 penitentiary for the purpose of having such [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL  engage  in  a  residential treatment facility program; provided,
 however, that:
   (a) Such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL has resided or was  employed
 or  has  dependents  or parents who reside in the county, or in a county
 that is contiguous to the county, in which the institution to  which  he
 OR SHE would be transferred is located;
   (b)  Arrangements  have been made for the education, on-the-job train-
 ing, employment or for  some  other  rehabilitative  treatment  of  such
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL in the county, or in a county that is
 contiguous to the county, in which the institution to which  he  OR  SHE
 would be transferred is located; and
   (c)   The  sheriff,  warden,  superintendent,  local  commissioner  of
 correction or other person in charge of the  institution  to  which  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL would be transferred consents to such
 transfer.
   2. An [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL so transferred  shall  continue
 to be in the custody of the state department of corrections and communi-
 ty  supervision but shall, during the period of such transfer, be in the
 care of the head of the institution to which he or she  is  transferred.
 The  provisions  of section seventy-three of this chapter shall apply in
 the case of any such transfer as fully and completely as if the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL were  transferred  to  a  residential  treatment
 facility,  and  the head of the institution to which the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL is transferred and the officers and employees thereof
 shall have and may exercise all of the powers of the superintendent of a
 residential treatment facility with respect to the care  or  custody  of
 such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.
   In  any  case  where  an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is employed,
 however, the provisions of subdivision nine  of  such  section  seventy-
 three shall not apply and the wages or salary of such [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL shall be dealt with under the provisions applicable to a
 work  release  program  in the type of institution to which he OR SHE is
 transferred as provided in [sections] SECTION one hundred  fifty-four[,]
 OR  eight  hundred  seventy-two  [or eight hundred ninety-three] OF THIS
 CHAPTER as the case may be; and in the event such [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  is  returned  to  a state correctional facility, any balance
 remaining in the trust fund account shall be paid  over  to  the  super-
 intendent  of  such  facility  and  shall  be deposited by him or her as
 [inmates'] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS'  funds  pursuant  to  section  one
 hundred sixteen of this chapter.
   3. If at any time the head of a local institution to which an [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  transferred  under  this section is of the

 S. 3332                            79
 
 opinion that continued care of such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  in
 such  institution  is  inconsistent  with  the  welfare or safety of the
 community or of the institution or its [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVID-
 UALS,  he  or  she  may  request  the  state commissioner to return such
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to a state correctional  facility  and,
 upon  the receipt of any such request, the commissioner shall cause such
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to be so returned promptly and  at  the
 expense  of  the  state  department  of corrections and community super-
 vision.
   4. The expenses of any such  transfer  shall  be  paid  by  the  state
 department of corrections and community supervision and the commissioner
 is hereby authorized to reimburse the local institution for a sum deter-
 mined  by  the  head of such institution and agreed to in advance by the
 commissioner to be the cost of food, lodging  and  clothing  within  the
 institution,  and  the  actual  and  necessary  food,  travel  and other
 expenses required for a program outside  the  institution,  incurred  or
 advanced by the institution; provided, however, that:
   (a)  In any case where the commissioner has a pending agreement with a
 locality under section ninety-one  of  this  article,  the  commissioner
 shall  not  reimburse  the  local  institution for any cost incurred for
 food, lodging and clothing within the institution; and
   (b) The wages or salary, if any, of such [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL  shall  be  used  for  such reimbursement and shall be applied to
 defray any costs authorized to be paid under  this  section  before  any
 amount  shall  be paid by the commissioner hereunder, and any such wages
 or salary may be so applied irrespective of the provisions of  paragraph
 (a) of this subdivision.
   §  146.  Subdivisions  2, 3 and 5 of section 95 of the correction law,

   2.  Any such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be deemed to be in
 the custody of and subject to the jurisdiction  of  the  department  but
 shall,  during  the period of his or her local confinement, be under the
 care of the head of the local correctional facility in which he  or  she
 resides.
   3.  If  at  any time the head of the local correctional facility is of
 the opinion that the continued care of such [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL  in  the  local  correctional  facility  is inconsistent with the
 welfare or safety of the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, the  communi-
 ty,  the facility or other [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS, he OR SHE
 may demand that such [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  be  transferred
 forthwith  to  the custody of the department. Thereafter, the department
 shall be obligated to receive into its custody such [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL in the manner  prescribed  for  the  acceptance  of  newly
 sentenced  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS required by section 430.20
 of the criminal procedure law unless the contract specifies an  alterna-
 tive  method  of  transfer.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any case
 where the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in  the  care  of  the  local
 correctional  facility  pursuant  to  a contract as provided for in this
 section is convicted of a class A-1 felony offense or a class B  violent
 felony  offense  or  a  class  C violent felony offense, the head of the
 local correctional facility may demand that such  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  be  transferred  forthwith to the custody of the department.
 Thereafter, the department shall be obligated to receive into its custo-

 S. 3332                            80
 
 dy such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  within  forty-eight  hours  of
 receipt of such demand from the head of the local correctional facility.
   5.  No  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  shall be housed in a local
 correctional facility or series of local correctional facilities  pursu-
 ant  to  a  contract  under subdivision one of this section for a period
 exceeding six months.
   § 147. Subdivisions (c), (d) and (e) of section 102 of the  correction

 ated within receiving states. Any such contract shall provide for:
   1. Its duration.
   2. Payments to be made to the receiving state by the sending state for
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL maintenance, extraordinary medical  and
 dental expenses, and any participation in or receipt by [inmates] INCAR-

 ties, programs or treatment not reasonably included as  part  of  normal
 maintenance.
   3.  Participation  in  programs  of  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 employment, if  any;  the  disposition  or  crediting  of  any  payments

   4. Delivery and retaking of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS.
   5.  Such  other matters as may be necessary and appropriate to fix the

   §  149.  Section 104 of the correction law, as added by chapter 400 of
 the laws of 1984, is amended to read as follows:
   § 104. Procedures  and  rights.  (a)  Whenever  the  duly  constituted
 authorities in a state party to this compact, and which has entered into
 a  contract pursuant to section one hundred three of this article, shall
 decide that confinement in, or  transfer  of  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  to,  an  institution  within  the territory of another party
 state is necessary or desirable in order to  provide  adequate  quarters
 and  care or an appropriate program of rehabilitation or treatment, said
 officials may direct that the confinement be within an institution with-
 in the territory of said other party state, the receiving state  to  act
 in that regard solely as agent for the sending state.
   (b) The appropriate officials of any state party to this compact shall
 have access, at all reasonable times, to any institution in which it has
 a  contractual  right  to confine [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS for

 S. 3332                            81
 
 the purpose of inspecting the facilities thereof and  visiting  such  of
 its  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS as may be confined in the insti-
 tution.
   (c)  [Inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  confined  in an institution
 pursuant to the terms of this compact shall at all times be  subject  to
 the  jurisdiction  of  the  sending state and may at any time be removed
 therefrom for transfer to a prison or other institution within the send-
 ing state, for transfer to another  institution  in  which  the  sending
 state  may have a contractual or other right to confine [inmates] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUALS, for release on probation or parole, for  discharge,
 or  for  any  other  purpose permitted by the laws of the sending state;
 provide that the sending state shall continue to be  obligated  to  such
 payments  as  may  be  required  pursuant  to  the terms of any contract
 entered into under the terms contained in section one hundred  three  of
 this article.
   (d) Each receiving state shall provide regular reports to each sending
 state on the [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS of that sending state in
 institutions pursuant to this compact including a conduct record of each
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and certify said record to the official
 designated by the sending state, in order that each [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL may have official review of his or her record in determin-
 ing  and altering the disposition of said [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL in accordance with the law which may obtain in the sending state and
 in order that the same may be a source of information  for  the  sending
 state.
   (e)  All  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS who may be confined in an
 institution pursuant to the provisions of this compact shall be  treated
 in a reasonable and humane manner and shall be treated equally with such
 similar [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS of the receiving state as may
 be  confined  in  the  same  institution.  The  fact of confinement in a
 receiving state shall not deprive any [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 so  confined  of any legal rights which said [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL would have had if confined in an appropriate institution  of  the
 sending state.
   (f) Any hearing or hearings to which an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL confined pursuant to this compact may be entitled by the laws of the
 sending state may be had before the appropriate authorities of the send-
 ing state, or of the receiving state if authorized by the sending state.
 The  receiving state shall provide adequate facilities for such hearings
 as may be conducted by the appropriate officials of a sending state.  In
 the  event  such  hearing  or  hearings  are had before officials of the
 receiving state, the governing law shall be that of  the  sending  state
 and  a  record  of  the hearing or hearings as prescribed by the sending
 state shall be made. Said record together with  any  recommendations  of
 the  hearing officials shall be transmitted forthwith to the official or
 officials before whom the hearing would have been had if  it  had  taken
 place  in  the sending state. In any and all proceedings had pursuant to
 the provisions of this subdivision, the officials of the receiving state
 shall act solely as agents of the sending state and  no  final  determi-
 nation  shall  be made in any matter except by the appropriate officials
 of the sending state.
   (g) Any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  confined  pursuant  to  this
 compact  shall  be  released  within  the territory of the sending state
 unless the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, and the sending and receiv-
 ing states, shall agree upon release in some other  place.  The  sending
 state shall bear the cost of such return to its territory.

 S. 3332                            82
 
   (h)  Any  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  confined pursuant to the
 terms of this compact shall have any and all rights  to  participate  in
 and  derive  any  benefits or incur or be relieved of any obligations or
 have such obligations modified or his OR HER status changed  on  account
 of  any  action or proceeding in which he OR SHE could have participated
 if confined in any appropriate institution of the sending state  located
 within such state.
   (i) The parent, guardian, trustee, or other person or persons entitled
 under  the  laws  of  the sending state to act for, advise, or otherwise
 function with respect to any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall  not
 be  deprived  of  or  restricted  in his OR HER exercise of any power in
 respect to any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL confined pursuant to the
 terms of this compact.
   § 150. Section 105 of the correction law, as added by chapter  400  of
 the laws of 1984, is amended to read as follows:
   §  105.  Acts  not reviewable in receiving state; extradition. (a) Any
 decision of the sending state in respect to any  matter  over  which  it
 retains  jurisdiction  pursuant to this compact shall be conclusive upon
 and not reviewable within the receiving state, but if at  the  time  the
 sending  state  seeks to remove an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL from
 an institution in the receiving  state  there  is  pending  against  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL within such state any criminal charge
 or if the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is formally accused of having
 committed within such state a criminal offense, the [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL shall not be returned without the consent of the receiving
 state until discharged from prosecution or  other  form  of  proceeding,
 imprisonment or detention for such offense. The duly accredited officers
 of the sending state shall be permitted to transport [inmates] INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUALS  pursuant  to  this compact through any and all states
 party to this compact without interference.
   (b) Any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who escapes from an  institu-
 tion  in  which  he OR SHE is confined pursuant to this compact shall be
 deemed a fugitive from the sending state and from the state in which the
 institution is situated. In the case of any  escape  to  a  jurisdiction
 other than the sending or receiving state, the responsibility for insti-
 tution  of  extradition  or  rendition  proceedings shall be that of the
 sending state, but  nothing  contained  herein  shall  be  construed  to
 prevent  or affect the activities of officers and agencies of any juris-
 diction directed toward the apprehension and return of the escapee.

   § 106. Federal aid. Any state party to this compact may accept federal
 aid  for  use  in connection with any institution or program, the use of
 which is or may be affected by this compact  or  any  contract  pursuant
 hereto  and  any  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in a receiving state
 pursuant to this compact may participate in  any  such  federally  aided
 program or activity for which the sending and receiving states have made
 contractual  provision, provided that if such program or activity is not
 part of the customary correctional regimen, the express consent  of  the
 appropriate official of the sending state shall be required therefor.
   §  152.  Section 108 of the correction law, as added by chapter 400 of
 the laws of 1984, is amended to read as follows:
   § 108. Withdrawal and termination.  This  compact  shall  continue  in
 force  and remain binding upon a party state until it shall have enacted
 a statute repealing the same and providing for  the  sending  of  formal
 written  notice  of withdrawal from the compact to the appropriate offi-

 S. 3332                            83
 
 cials of all other party states.  An actual withdrawal  shall  not  take
 effect  until  one  year after the notices provided in said statute have
 been sent. Such withdrawal shall not relieve the withdrawing state  from
 its  obligations  assumed hereunder prior to the effective date of with-
 drawal. Before the effective date of  withdrawal,  a  withdrawing  state
 shall remove to its territory, at its own expense, such [inmates] INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUALS  as it may have confined pursuant to the provisions
 of this compact.
   § 153. Subdivision (a) of section 109 of the correction law, as  added

 have with a nonparty state for the confinement, rehabilitation or treat-
 ment  of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS nor to repeal any other laws
 of a party state authorizing the  making  of  cooperative  institutional
 arrangements.

 law, subdivisions 1 and 2 as amended  and  subdivision  4  as  added  by

   1. The commissioner of corrections  and  community  supervision  shall
 have  the  superintendence,  management  and control of the correctional

 matters  connected  with  said  correctional facilities. He or she shall
 make such rules and regulations, not in conflict with  the  statutes  of
 this  state,  for  the government of the officers and other employees of
 the department assigned to said facilities, and in regard to the  duties
 to  be  performed by them, and for the government and discipline of each
 correctional facility, as he or she may deem  proper,  and  shall  cause
 such  rules  and regulations to be recorded by the superintendent of the
 facility, and a copy thereof to be furnished to each  employee  assigned
 to the facility. He or she shall also prescribe a system of accounts and
 records  to be kept at each correctional facility, which system shall be
 uniform at all of said facilities, and he or she shall also  make  rules
 and regulations for a record of photographs and other means of identify-
 ing each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL received into said facilities.

 persons'  effective reentry into the community, as well as all contracts
 and fiscal concerns thereof. The commissioner shall have the  power  and

 said community supervision. The commissioner shall make such  rules  and
 regulations,  not  in  conflict with the statutes of this state, for the
 governance of  the  officers  and  other  employees  of  the  department
 assigned  to  said community supervision, and in regard to the duties to
 be performed by them, as he or she deems proper  and  shall  cause  such
 rules  and  regulations  to  be  furnished  to each employee assigned to
 perform community supervision. The commissioner shall also  prescribe  a
 system  of  accounts and records to be kept, which shall be uniform. The

 S. 3332                            84
 
 commissioner shall also make rules  and  regulations  for  a  record  of

 needs assessment instrument or instruments, which shall  be  empirically
 validated, that would be administered to [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UALS  upon  reception into a correctional facility, and throughout their
 incarceration and release to community supervision, to facilitate appro-
 priate programming both during an [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S
 incarceration  and community supervision, and designed to facilitate the
 successful integration of [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  into  the
 community.
   5. (a) The commissioner shall not make or promulgate any policy and/or
 regulation  requiring  an  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to waive any
 religious right, including, but not limited to, daily prayer as a condi-
 tion for participation in any [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  program
 including  any  such  program  developed  and/or implemented pursuant to

 shock program and the industrial training program.
   (b)  Upon request, [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS shall be granted
 exemptions for  activities,  including  jobs,  that  coincide  with  the
 Sabbath  and  other work proscription days, including those set forth in
 the religious calendar.
   § 155. Section 113 of the correction law, as amended by section 20  of
 subpart  A  of  part  C of chapter 62 of the laws of 2011, is amended to

 and  regulations  as  the  commissioner  shall prescribe, respecting the
 granting of such permission, duration of absence from  the  institution,
 custody,   transportation   and   care   of  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL, and guarding against escape. Any expense incurred under  the
 provisions  of  this  section, with respect to any [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL permitted to attend a funeral or visit a relative during last
 illness, shall be deemed an expense of maintenance  of  the  institution
 and  be  paid from moneys available therefor; but the superintendent, if

 confined,  within  the  appropriations  made therefor, including but not
 limited to vocational,  academic  and  industrial  programs,  which  are

 S. 3332                            85
 
 comparable to the programs provided to male [inmates] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUALS during the course of their incarceration.
   §  157. Section 116 of the correction law, as amended by section 14 of
 subpart B of part C of chapter 62 of the laws of  2011,  is  amended  to

 intendent, in such bank or banks as  may  be  designated  by  the  comp-
 troller, all the moneys received by him or her as such warden, or super-
 intendent,  as  [inmates']  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS' funds, and send to
 the comptroller and also to the commissioner monthly, a statement  show-
 ing  the  amount  so  received and deposited. Such statement of deposits

 receiving  any  such  deposits,  file a bond with the comptroller of the
 state, subject to his or her approval, for such sum as he or  she  shall
 deem  necessary.   Upon a certificate of approval issued by the director
 of the budget, pursuant to the provisions of section fifty-three of  the
 state  finance  law,  the amount of interest, if any, heretofore accrued
 and hereafter to accrue on moneys so deposited, heretofore and hereafter
 credited to the warden, or superintendent, by  the  bank  from  time  to
 time,  shall  be available for expenditure by the warden, or superinten-
 dent, subject to the direction of the  commissioner,  for  welfare  work
 among  the [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in his OR HER custody. The
 withdrawal of moneys so deposited by such warden, or superintendent,  as
 [inmates']  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS'  funds, including any interest so
 credited, shall be subject to his or her check. Each warden,  or  super-
 intendent, shall each month provide the comptroller and also the commis-
 sioner  with  a  record  of all withdrawals from [inmates'] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS' funds. As used in this section, the term "[inmates'] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUALS' funds" means the funds in  the  possession  of  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  at  the time of his or her admission
 into the institution, funds earned by him or her as provided in  section
 one hundred eighty-seven of this chapter and any other funds received by
 him  or  her  or  on his or her behalf and deposited with such warden or
 superintendent in accordance with  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the
 commissioner.    Whenever  the  total  unencumbered value of funds in an
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  account  exceeds  ten   thousand
 dollars,  the  superintendent shall give written notice to the office of
 victim services.

   § 136. Correctional education. 1. The objective of correctional educa-
 tion  in its broadest sense should be the socialization of the [inmates]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS through varied  impressional  and  expressional
 activities, with emphasis on individual [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 needs.  The  objective  of  this  program  shall  be the return of these
 [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS to  society  with  a  more  wholesome
 attitude  toward  living,  with  a  desire to conduct themselves as good
 citizens, and with the skill  and  knowledge  which  will  give  them  a
 reasonable  chance  to  maintain themselves and their dependents through
 honest labor. To this end each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be
 given a program of education which, on  the  basis  of  available  data,
 seems  most likely to further the process of socialization and rehabili-
 tation. Provided  that,  the  commissioner,  in  consultation  with  the
 commissioner  of  education,  shall  develop a curricula for and require
 provision of an education program to all [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL, on a periodic basis, on the consequences and prevention  of  shaken
 baby  syndrome  which  may  include  the viewing of a video presentation
 thereon. The time daily devoted to such education shall be  such  as  is
 required  for  meeting  the above objectives. The director of education,
 subject to the direction of the commissioner and after consultation with
 the commissioner of education,  shall  develop  the  curricula  and  the
 education  programs  that are required to meet the special needs of each
 correctional facility in the department. The commissioner of  education,
 in  cooperation  with  the  commissioner  and the director of education,
 shall set up the  educational  requirements  for  the  certification  of
 teachers  in all such correctional facilities. Such educational require-
 ments shall be sufficiently broad and comprehensive to include  training
 in  penology, sociology, psychology, philosophy, in the special subjects
 to be taught, and in any other professional courses  as  may  be  deemed
 necessary by the responsible officers, and shall include training relat-
 ing to the consequences and prevention of shaken baby syndrome which may
 include the viewing of a video presentation thereon. No certificates for
 teaching  service  in  the  state  institutions shall be issued unless a
 minimum of four years of  training  beyond  the  high  school  has  been
 secured,  or  an  acceptable  equivalent.  Existing requirements for the
 certification of teachers in the institutions shall  continue  in  force
 until changed pursuant to the provisions of this section.
   2.  All  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS admitted to the department
 serving a determinate term of imprisonment, or an indeterminate sentence
 of imprisonment other than  a  sentence  of  life  imprisonment  without
 parole,  who  have been evaluated upon admission pursuant to subdivision
 one of section one hundred thirty-seven of this article and  are  deter-
 mined  to be capable of successfully completing the academic course work
 required for the test assessing secondary completion, shall be  provided
 with  the  opportunity  to complete such course work at least two months
 prior to the date on which such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL may  be
 paroled,  conditionally  released,  released to post-release supervision
 pursuant to section 70.40 of the penal law, or  presumptively  released,
 pursuant  to section eight hundred three of this chapter. Upon admission
 to the department,  such  [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  will  be
 provided   with   written  notice  that  the  test  assessing  secondary
 completion programs are available for all [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUALS who so apply.
   3.  The department shall ensure that academic education programs which
 provide the appropriate curriculum and certified academic staff for  the
 test  assessing  secondary  completion  instruction are available at all

 S. 3332                            89
 
 correctional facilities housing [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  who
 are  eligible  as  specified  in  subdivision  two  of this section. The
 department shall provide academic staff who  are  qualified  to  provide
 such  instruction  and  who  are members of the competitive class of the
 civil service of New York state. The department shall develop a plan for
 implementation of the test assessing  secondary  completion  requirement
 which   shall  be  presented  to  the  assembly  standing  committee  on
 correction and the senate standing committee on crime victims, crime and
 correction on or before April first, two thousand nineteen.
   § 166. Section 137 of the correction law, as added by section  476  of
 the laws of 1970, subdivision 1 as amended by chapter 476 of the laws of
 2017,  subdivision  6 as amended by chapter 490 of the laws of 1974, the
 opening paragraph and paragraph (f) of  subdivision  6  as  amended  and
 paragraphs  (d)  and  (e)  of subdivision b of subdivision 6 as added by
 chapter 1 of the laws of 2008, paragraph (g) of subdivision 6  as  added
 by chapter 261 of the  laws of 2019, is amended to read as follows:
   §  137.  Program  of  treatment,  control,  discipline at correctional
 facilities. 1. The commissioner shall establish program and  classifica-
 tion  procedures designed to assure the complete study of the background
 and condition of each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in  the  care  or
 custody  of the department and the assignment of such [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL to a program that is most likely to be useful in assist-
 ing him OR HER to refrain from future violations of the law. Such proce-
 dures shall be incorporated  into  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the
 department  and  shall require among other things:  consideration of the
 physical, mental and emotional condition of  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL;  consideration  of  his  OR  HER  educational and vocational
 needs; enrollment of each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  in  assigned
 programs  as  soon as practicable; consideration of the danger he OR SHE
 presents  to  the  community  or   to   other   [inmates]   INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS;  the  recording  of  continuous  case  histories  including
 notations as to apparent success or failure of treatment  employed;  and
 periodic review of case histories and treatment methods used.
   2.  The  commissioner shall provide for such measures as he OR SHE may
 deem necessary or appropriate for the safety, security  and  control  of
 correctional facilities and the maintenance of order therein.
   3. Each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be entitled to clothing
 suited to the season and weather conditions and to a sufficient quantity
 of  wholesome and nutritious food. To the extent practicable, the cloth-
 ing and bedding of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS shall be  manufac-
 tured and laundered in institutions in the department.
   4.  Whenever there shall be a sufficient number of cells or rooms in a
 correctional facility, each [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  shall  be
 given  sleeping  accommodations  in  a  separate cell or room, provided,
 however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed so as to limit
 the right of the department  to  utilize  dormitory-type  accommodations
 where necessary or where appropriate to a program of treatment.
   5.  No  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in the care or custody of the
 department shall be subjected to degrading treatment, and no officer  or
 other  employee  of the department shall inflict any blows whatever upon
 any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, unless  in  self  defense,  or  to
 suppress  a revolt or insurrection. When any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL, or group of  [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS,  shall  offer
 violence  to  any person, or do or attempt to do any injury to property,
 or attempt to escape, or resist or disobey  any  lawful  direction,  the
 officers  and  employees  shall  use  all suitable means to defend them-

 S. 3332                            90
 
 selves, to maintain order, to  enforce  observation  of  discipline,  to
 secure  the  persons of the offenders and to prevent any such attempt or
 escape.
   6.   Except as provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) of this subdivision,
 the superintendent of a correctional  facility  may  keep  any  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  confined  in  a  cell  or room, apart from the
 accommodations provided for [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS  who  are
 participating  in  programs  of  the facility, for such period as may be
 necessary for maintenance of order or discipline, but in any  such  case
 the following conditions shall be observed:
   (a)  The  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  shall be supplied with a
 sufficient quantity of wholesome and nutritious food, provided, however,
 that such food need not be the same as the food  supplied  to  [inmates]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS who are participating in programs of the facil-
 ity;
   (b)  Adequate sanitary and other conditions required for the health of
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be maintained;
   (c) Where such confinement is for a period in  excess  of  twenty-four
 hours, the superintendent shall arrange for the facility health services
 director, or a registered nurse or physician's associate approved by the
 facility  health  services  director to visit such [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL at the expiration of twenty-four hours and at least  once  in
 every  twenty-four  hour  period  thereafter,  during the period of such
 confinement, to examine into the state of health of the [inmate]  INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL, and the superintendent shall give full consideration
 to  any  recommendation that may be made by the facility health services
 director for measures with respect to dietary  needs  or  conditions  of
 confinement  of  such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL required to main-
 tain the health of such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL; and
   (d) (i) Except as set forth in clause (E) of subparagraph (ii) of this
 paragraph, the department, in consultation  with  mental  health  clini-
 cians,  shall  divert  or remove [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS with
 serious mental illness, as defined in paragraph (e) of this subdivision,
 from segregated confinement, where such confinement could potentially be
 for a period in excess of thirty days, to a  residential  mental  health
 treatment  unit.    Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent
 the disciplinary process from proceeding in accordance  with  department
 rules and regulations for disciplinary hearings.
   (ii)  (A)  Upon  placement of an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL into
 segregated confinement at a level one or level two facility,  a  suicide
 prevention  screening instrument shall be administered by staff from the
 department or the office of mental health who has been trained for  that
 purpose. If such a screening instrument reveals that the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  at  risk  of suicide, a mental health clinician
 shall be consulted and appropriate safety precautions  shall  be  taken.
 Additionally,  within  one  business  day  of  the  placement of such an
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL into segregated confinement at a  level
 one or level two facility, the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be
 assessed by a mental health clinician.
   (B)  Upon placement of an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL into segre-
 gated confinement at a level three or level  four  facility,  a  suicide
 prevention  screening instrument shall be administered by staff from the
 department or the office of mental health who has been trained for  that
 purpose. If such a screening instrument reveals that the [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  at  risk  of suicide, a mental health clinician
 shall be consulted and appropriate safety precautions  shall  be  taken.

 S. 3332                            91
 
 All  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS placed in segregated confinement
 at a level three or level four facility shall be assessed  by  a  mental
 health clinician, within fourteen days of such placement into segregated
 confinement.
   (C)  At  the  initial assessment, if the mental health clinician finds
 that an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL suffers from a  serious  mental
 illness,  a  recommendation  shall  be  made whether exceptional circum-
 stances, as described in clause (E) of this subparagraph,  exist.  In  a
 facility  with  a  joint  case management committee, such recommendation
 shall be made by such committee. In a  facility  without  a  joint  case
 management  committee,  the  recommendation  shall  be made jointly by a
 committee consisting of the facility's  highest  ranking  mental  health
 clinician, the deputy superintendent for security, and the deputy super-
 intendent for program services, or their equivalents. Any such recommen-
 dation  shall  be reviewed by the joint central office review committee.
 The administrative process described in this clause shall  be  completed
 within  fourteen  days  of  the initial assessment, and if the result of
 such process is that the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  should  be
 removed from segregated confinement, such removal shall occur as soon as
 practicable,  but  in  no  event  more  than  seventy-two hours from the
 completion of the administrative process.
   (D) If an [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  with  a  serious  mental
 illness is not diverted or removed to a residential mental health treat-
 ment  unit, such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be reassessed by
 a mental health clinician within fourteen days of the initial assessment
 and at least once every fourteen days thereafter.  After each such addi-
 tional assessment, a recommendation as to whether such  [inmate]  INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUAL  should be removed from segregated confinement shall
 be made and reviewed according to the process set forth in clause (C) of
 this subparagraph.
   (E) A recommendation or determination whether to  remove  an  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  from  segregated  confinement  shall take into
 account the assessing mental  health  clinicians'  opinions  as  to  the
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  mental  condition  and treatment
 needs, and shall also take into account any safety and security concerns
 that would be posed by the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S removal,
 even if additional restrictions were placed on the [inmate's]  INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUAL'S access to treatment, property, services or privileges
 in a residential mental  health  treatment  unit.  A  recommendation  or
 determination  shall  direct  the  [inmate's]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S
 removal from segregated confinement except in the following  exceptional
 circumstances:  (1)  when  the  reviewer finds that removal would pose a
 substantial risk to the safety of the [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 or other persons, or a substantial threat to the security of the facili-
 ty, even if additional restrictions were placed on the [inmate's] INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  access to treatment, property, services or privi-
 leges in a residential mental health treatment unit;  or  (2)  when  the
 assessing  mental  health clinician determines that such placement is in
 the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S best interests based on his  or
 her  mental condition and that removing such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL to a residential mental health treatment  unit  would  be  detri-
 mental  to  his or her mental condition. Any determination not to remove
 an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL with  serious  mental  illness  from
 segregated  confinement  shall  be documented in writing and include the
 reasons for the determination.

 S. 3332                            92
 
   (iii) [Inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS with serious  mental  illness
 who  are  not  diverted  or removed from segregated confinement shall be
 offered a heightened level of care, involving a  minimum  of  two  hours
 each  day,  five  days  a week, of out-of-cell therapeutic treatment and
 programming.  This heightened level of care shall not be offered only in
 the following circumstances:
   (A) The heightened level of care shall  not  apply  when  an  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  with  serious  mental illness does not, in the
 reasonable judgment of a mental health clinician, require the heightened
 level of care. Such determination shall be  documented  with  a  written
 statement  of  the  basis of such determination and shall be reviewed by
 the Central New York Psychiatric Center clinical director or his or  her
 designee.   Such  a  determination  is  subject  to  change  should  the
 [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S clinical status change. Such deter-
 mination shall be reviewed and documented by a mental  health  clinician
 every thirty days, and in consultation with the Central New York Psychi-
 atric  Center  clinical  director  or  his or her designee not less than
 every ninety days.
   (B) The heightened level  of  care  shall  not  apply  in  exceptional
 circumstances when providing such care would create an unacceptable risk
 to  the  safety  and  security  of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS or
 staff. Such determination shall  be  documented  by  security  personnel
 together  with  the basis of such determination and shall be reviewed by
 the facility superintendent, in consultation with a mental health clini-
 cian, not less than every seven days for as long as the [inmate]  INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL remains in segregated confinement. The facility shall
 attempt to resolve such exceptional circumstances so that the heightened
 level  of care may be provided. If such exceptional circumstances remain
 unresolved for thirty days, the matter shall be referred  to  the  joint
 central office review committee for review.
   (iv)  [Inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS with serious mental illness
 who are not diverted or removed from segregated confinement shall not be
 placed on a restricted diet, unless there has been  a  written  determi-
 nation  that  the restricted diet is necessary for reasons of safety and
 security. If a restricted diet is imposed, it shall be limited to  seven
 days,  except  in  the  exceptional  circumstances  where the joint case
 management committee determines that limiting  the  restricted  diet  to
 seven days would pose an unacceptable risk to the safety and security of
 [inmates]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS or staff. In such case, the need for
 a restricted diet shall be  reassessed  by  the  joint  case  management
 committee every seven days.
   (v)  All  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in segregated confinement
 in a level one or level two facility who are not assessed with a serious
 mental illness at the initial assessment shall be offered at  least  one
 interview  with  a mental health clinician within fourteen days of their
 initial mental health assessment, and  additional  interviews  at  least
 every  thirty days thereafter, unless the mental health clinician at the
 most recent interview recommends an earlier interview or assessment. All
 [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in segregated confinement in a  level
 three  or level four facility who are not assessed with a serious mental
 illness at the initial assessment shall be offered at least  one  inter-
 view  with a mental health clinician within thirty days of their initial
 mental health assessment, and additional interviews at least every nine-
 ty days thereafter, unless the  mental  health  clinician  at  the  most
 recent interview recommends an earlier interview or assessment.

 S. 3332                            93
 
   (e)  An  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL has a serious mental illness
 when he or she has been determined by a mental health clinician to  meet
 at least one of the following criteria:

 S. 3332                            101
 
 fications according to the value of work performed by each. Such  sched-
 ules  need  not be uniform in all institutions. The rules of the depart-
 ment shall also provide for the establishment of  a  credit  system  for
 each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and the manner in which such earn-
 ings shall be paid to the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL or his or her
 dependents or held in trust for him or her until his or her release.
   4.  Any compensation paid to an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL under
 this article shall be based on  the  work  performed  by  such  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.  Compensation may be paid from moneys appropri-
 ated  to  the  department  and  available  to facilities for nonpersonal
 service.

 ty, establish for the [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in one or  more
 state  correctional  institutions  a  system  of educational, career and
 industrial training programs, and of incentive allowances for each  such
 program.
   3. For each institution wherein such system is established the commis-
 sioner  shall  prepare, and may at times revise, graded incentive allow-
 ance schedules for the [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  within  each
 such  program based upon the levels of performance and achievement by an
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in a program to which  he  OR  SHE  has
 been  assigned.  Upon  the  approval  of the director of the budget such
 schedules or revisions thereof may be promulgated.
   4. The commissioner shall also provide  for  the  establishment  of  a
 credit  system  for each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and the manner
 in which incentive allowances shall be paid to the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL or his OR HER dependents or held in  trust  for  him  OR  HER

 hundred eighty-four.
   3. To facilitate the supervision of all [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUALS  released  to  community  supervision,  the  commissioner  shall
 consider the implementation of a program of graduated sanctions, includ-
 ing but not limited to the utilization of a risk  and  needs  assessment
 instrument  that  would  be  administered  to all [inmates] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS eligible for community supervision.  Such  a  program  would
 include  various components including approaches that concentrate super-
 vision on new releases,  alternatives  to  incarceration  for  technical
 parole violators and the use of enhanced technologies.

 tion  act, to provide notification to the local social services district
 in the county in which the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  expects  to
 reside,  when  information available or any other pre-release procedures
 indicates that such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is likely  to  seek
 to  access  local  social  services for homeless persons. The department
 shall provide such notice, when practicable, thirty days or more  before
 such  [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S release, but in any event, in
 advance of such [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  arrival  in  the
 jurisdiction of such local social services district.
   §  188.  Section  207 of the correction law, as added by section 32 of

 perform their independent decision making functions. It is also  his  or
 her  duty  to  ensure  that the functions of the board of parole are not
 hampered in any way, including but not  limited  to:  a  restriction  of
 resources  including  staff assistance; limited access to vital informa-
 tion; and presentation of [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  information
 in a manner that may inappropriately influence the board in its decision
 making.
   § 189. Subdivision 2 of section 272 of the correction law, as added by
 section  1  of  part SS of chapter 56 of the laws of 2009, is amended to

 UAL applies for conditional release, the need for supplemental  investi-
 gation  of  the  background of such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and
 cause such investigation as may be necessary to be made as soon as prac-
 ticable. The  commission  may  require  that  the  probation  department
 located  in the jurisdiction of the commission conduct such supplemental
 investigation. The results of such investigation together with all other
 information compiled by the local correctional facility and the complete
 criminal record and family court record of  such  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  shall  be  readily available when the conditional release of
 such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is being considered. Such informa-
 tion shall include a complete statement  of  the  crime  for  which  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL has been sentenced, the circumstances

   Any  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who is eligible for conditional
 release by a commission pursuant to subdivision two of section 70.40  of
 the  penal  law  and  who has served a minimum period of sixty days in a
 local correctional facility may apply for conditional release. Eligibil-
 ity criteria shall be limited to [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS:
   (a) who have not been  previously  convicted  and  who  do  not  stand
 convicted of any crime which would make such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL  ineligible  for  the  receipt  of merit time pursuant to section
 eight hundred three of this chapter, any crime pursuant to  article  two
 hundred thirty-five of the penal law when the victim of such offense was

 the commission determines constituted a crime of domestic violence;
   2. The commission shall review and make a determination on each appli-
 cation  within  thirty  days of receipt of such application. No determi-
 nation granting or denying such application shall be valid  unless  made
 by  a  majority  vote  of  at least three commission members present. No
 release shall be granted unless there is a reasonable probability  that,
 if  such  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is released, he or she shall
 live and remain at liberty without violating the law, and  that  his  or
 her  release  is  not incompatible with the welfare of society and shall
 not so deprecate the seriousness of his or her  crime  as  to  undermine
 respect for law.
   6.  If conditional release is not granted, the commission shall inform
 the person in writing of the factors and  reasons  for  such  denial  of
 conditional  release  within  fifteen days of the decision. Such reasons
 shall be given in detail and not in conclusory terms.  [Inmates]  INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUALS  denied conditional release are eligible to reapply

   §  193.  Section 401 of the correction law, as amended by chapter 1 of
 the laws of 2008, subdivision 6 as amended by chapter 20 of the laws  of
 2016, is amended to read as follows:
   §  401.  Establishment  of programs inside correctional facilities. 1.
 The commissioner, in cooperation with the commissioner of mental health,
 shall establish programs,  including  but  not  limited  to  residential
 mental  health treatment units, in such correctional facilities as he or
 she may deem appropriate for the treatment  of  mentally  ill  [inmates]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  confined in state correctional facilities who
 are in need of psychiatric services but who do not require  hospitaliza-
 tion  for  the treatment of mental illness. [Inmates] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUALS with serious mental illness shall receive therapy  and  program-
 ming  in  settings  that  are  appropriate to their clinical needs while
 maintaining the safety and security of the facility. The  administration
 and  operation of programs established pursuant to this section shall be
 the joint responsibility of the commissioner of mental  health  and  the
 commissioner.  The  professional mental health care personnel, and their
 administrative and support staff, for such programs shall  be  employees
 of  the  office of mental health. All other personnel shall be employees
 of the department.
   2. (a) (i) In exceptional circumstances, a mental health clinician, or
 the highest ranking facility security supervisor in consultation with  a
 mental  health  clinician  who has interviewed the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL, may determine that an [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S
 access  to  out-of-cell  therapeutic  programming  and/or  mental health
 treatment in a residential mental  health  treatment  unit  presents  an
 unacceptable risk to the safety of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS or
 staff. Such determination shall be documented in writing and alternative
 mental  health treatment and/or other therapeutic programming, as deter-
 mined by a mental health clinician, shall be provided.
   (ii) Any determination to restrict out-of-cell therapeutic programming
 and/or mental health treatment shall be reviewed at least every fourteen
 days by the joint case management committee or, if no such committee  is
 available, by the treatment team assigned to the [inmate's] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL'S residential mental health treatment unit.
   (iii)  The  determination  whether to restrict out-of-cell therapeutic
 programming and/or mental health treatment shall take into  account  the
 [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S mental condition and any safety and
 security  concerns  that  would  be posed by the [inmate's] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL'S access to such  out-of-cell  therapeutic  programming.  The
 joint  case  management committee or treatment team shall recommend that
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall have  access  to  out-of-cell
 therapeutic  programming and/or mental health treatment unless in excep-
 tional circumstances such access would pose an unacceptable risk to  the
 safety  of  the  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL or other persons. Such
 recommendation shall be reviewed by the facility superintendent, and  if
 the  superintendent makes a determination not to accept such recommenda-
 tion, the matter shall be referred to the joint  central  office  review
 committee  for resolution.   Such resolution shall be made no later than
 twenty-one days after the imposition of the restriction.
   (b) [Inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in a residential mental  health
 treatment  unit  shall receive property, services and privileges similar

 S. 3332                            106
 
 to [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS confined  in  the  general  prison
 population,  provided however, the department may impose general limita-
 tions on the quantity and type of property  all  [inmates]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS  on  the  unit  are  permitted  to  have  in their cells and
 [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  access  to  programs  that  are  more
 restrictive  than for general population [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UALS in order to maintain security and order on the  unit.  Further,  in
 consultation  with a mental health clinician, the department may make an
 individual determination to impose restrictions on property, services or
 privileges for an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL on the unit for ther-
 apeutic and/or security reasons which  are  not  inconsistent  with  the
 [inmate's]INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  mental  health  needs. If any such
 restrictions on property,  services  or  privileges  are  imposed  on  a
 particular [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, they shall be documented in
 writing and shall be reviewed by the joint case management committee not
 less  than every thirty days. A disciplinary sanction of restricted diet
 shall not be imposed on any  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who  is
 housed in a residential mental health treatment unit.
   3.  Misbehavior  reports  will not be issued to [inmates] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS with serious mental illness for refusing treatment or  medi-
 cation,  however,  an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL may be subject to
 the disciplinary process for refusing to go to the location where treat-
 ment is provided or medication is dispensed. In addition, there will  be
 a presumption against imposition and pursuit of disciplinary charges for
 self-harming  behavior  and  threats of self-harming behavior, including
 related charges for the same behaviors, such  as  destruction  of  state
 property, except in exceptional circumstances.
   4.  A  disciplinary sanction imposed on an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL requiring confinement to a cell or room  shall  continue  to  run
 while  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is placed in residential
 mental health treatment in a residential mental health unit model  or  a
 behavioral  health  unit  model.  Such  disciplinary  sanction  shall be
 reviewed by the joint case management committee or, if no such committee
 is available, by the treatment team assigned to the [inmate's] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL'S residential mental health treatment unit at least once
 every three months to determine whether based upon the [inmate's] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL'S  mental  health  status  and  safety  and  security
 concerns, the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S disciplinary sanction
 should  be reduced and/or the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL should be
 transferred to a less restrictive setting. Nothing in  this  subdivision
 shall  be  deemed to preclude the department from granting reductions of
 disciplinary sanctions to [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  in  other
 residential mental health treatment unit models.
   5.  (a)  An  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in a residential mental
 health treatment unit shall not be sanctioned with  segregated  confine-
 ment  for misconduct on the unit, or removed from the unit and placed in
 segregated confinement, except in exceptional circumstances  where  such
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  conduct  poses a significant and
 unreasonable risk to the safety of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS or
 staff, or to the security of the facility. Further, in  the  event  that
 such  a  sanction  is imposed, an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall
 not be required  to  begin  serving  such  sanction  until  the  reviews
 required  by  paragraph  (b)  of  this  subdivision have been completed;
 provided,  however  that  in  extraordinary   circumstances   where   an
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  conduct poses an immediate unac-
 ceptable threat to the safety of [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  or

 S. 3332                            107

 staff, or to the security of the facility an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL may be immediately moved to segregated confinement.  The determi-
 nation that an immediate transfer to segregated confinement is necessary
 shall  be  made  by  the highest ranking facility security supervisor in
 consultation with a mental health clinician.
   (b) The joint case management committee shall review any  disciplinary
 disposition  imposing  a  sanction of segregated confinement at its next
 scheduled meeting. Such review shall take into  account  the  [inmate's]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  mental  condition  and  safety  and security
 concerns. The joint case management committee may only thereafter recom-
 mend the removal of the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in  exceptional
 circumstances where the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL poses a signif-
 icant  and  unreasonable  risk  to  the safety of [inmates] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS or staff or to the security of the facility.  In  the  event
 that  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  was  immediately moved to
 segregated confinement, the joint case management committee  may  recom-
 mend  that  the  [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL continue to serve such
 sanction only in exceptional circumstances where the [inmate]  INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUAL poses a significant and unreasonable risk to the safety
 of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS or staff or to the security of the
 facility. If a determination is  made  that  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  shall not be required to serve all or any part of the segre-
 gated confinement sanction, the  joint  case  management  committee  may
 instead  recommend  that  a less restrictive sanction should be imposed.
 The recommendations made by the joint case  management  committee  under
 this paragraph shall be documented in writing and referred to the super-
 intendent  for  review  and  if the superintendent disagrees, the matter
 shall be referred to the joint central office  review  committee  for  a
 final  determination. The administrative process described in this para-
 graph shall be completed within fourteen days. If  the  result  of  such
 process  is that an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who was immediately
 transferred to segregated confinement should be removed from  segregated
 confinement,  such removal shall occur as soon as practicable, and in no
 event longer than seventy-two hours from the completion of the  adminis-
 trative process.
   6.  The department shall ensure that the curriculum for new correction
 officers, and other new department staff  who  will  regularly  work  in
 programs  providing  mental  health treatment for [inmates] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS, shall include at least eight hours of  training  about  the
 types  and  symptoms  of  mental  illnesses,  the goals of mental health
 treatment, the prevention of suicide and training in how to  effectively
 and   safely  manage  [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  with  mental
 illness. Such training may be provided by the office of mental health or
 the justice center for the protection of people with special needs.  All
 department  staff  who are transferring into a residential mental health
 treatment unit shall receive a minimum of eight additional hours of such
 training, and eight hours of annual training as long  as  they  work  in
 such  a  unit. All security, program services, mental health and medical
 staff with direct [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL contact shall receive
 training each year regarding identification of, and care for,  [inmates]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  with  mental  illnesses. The department shall
 provide additional training on these topics on an ongoing  basis  as  it
 deems appropriate.
   § 194. Section 401-a of the correction law, as amended by section 6 of
 part  A  of chapter 501 of the laws of 2012 and subdivision 1 as amended
 by chapter 126 of the laws of 2014, is amended to read as follows:

 S. 3332                            108
 
   § 401-a. Oversight responsibilities of  the  justice  center  for  the
 protection  of  people with special needs. 1. The justice center for the
 protection of people with special needs shall be responsible  for  moni-
 toring the quality of mental health care provided to [inmates] INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUALS  pursuant  to article twenty of the executive law. The
 justice center shall have direct and immediate access to all areas where
 state prisoners are housed,  and  to  clinical  and  department  records
 relating  to  [inmates']  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS' clinical conditions.
 The justice center shall maintain the confidentiality  of  all  patient-
 specific information.
   2. The justice center shall monitor the quality of care in residential
 mental  health treatment programs and shall ensure compliance with para-
 graphs (d) and (e) of subdivision six of section one hundred thirty-sev-
 en of this chapter and section four hundred one  of  this  article.  The
 justice  center may recommend to the department and the office of mental
 health that [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in segregated confinement
 pursuant to subdivision six of section one hundred thirty-seven of  this
 chapter be evaluated for placement in a residential mental health treat-
 ment  unit.  It may also recommend ways to further the goal of diverting
 and removing [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  with  serious  mental
 illness  from segregated confinement to residential mental health treat-
 ment units. The justice center shall include in its annual report to the
 governor and the legislature pursuant to section five hundred  sixty  of
 the  executive  law,  a description of the state's progress in complying

   3. The justice center shall appoint an advisory committee on psychiat-
 ric correctional care ("committee"), which shall be  composed  of  inde-
 pendent  mental  health  experts  and  mental  health advocates, and may
 include family members of former [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS with
 serious mental illness. Such committee shall advise the  justice  center
 on  its oversight responsibilities pursuant to this section. The commit-
 tee may also  make  recommendations  to  the  justice  center  regarding
 improvements  to prison-based mental health care. Nothing in this subdi-

 access  to a correctional or mental hygiene facility or any part of such
 a facility.  Provided, however, newly appointed members of the  advisory
 committee shall be provided with a tour of a segregated confinement unit
 and  a  residential  mental  health  treatment  unit, as selected by the

   § 195. The section heading and subdivisions 1,  2,  3,  9  and  13  of
 section  402 of the correction law, the section heading and subdivisions
 1 and 2 as added by chapter 766 of the laws of 1976,  subdivision  3  as
 amended  by chapter 789 of the laws of 1985, subdivision 9 as amended by
 chapter 164 of the laws of 1986, and subdivision 13 as added by  chapter
 7 of the laws of 2007, are amended to read as follows:
   Commitment  of  Mentally  ill [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS.   1.
 Whenever the physician of any correctional facility, any county peniten-
 tiary, county jail or workhouse, any reformatory for women,  or  of  any
 other  correctional  institution,  shall report in writing to the super-
 intendent that any person undergoing a sentence of imprisonment or adju-
 dicated to be a youthful offender or juvenile delinquent confined there-
 in is, in his OR HER opinion, mentally ill,  such  superintendent  shall
 apply  to a judge of the county court or justice of the supreme court in
 the county to cause an examination to be made  of  such  person  by  two

 S. 3332                            109
 
 examining  physicians.  Such physicians shall be designated by the judge
 to whom the application is made.  Each  such  physician,  if  satisfied,
 after a personal examination, that such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 is  mentally ill and in need of care and treatment, shall make a certif-
 icate to such effect. Before making such certificate, however, he OR SHE
 shall consider alternative forms of care and treatment available  during
 confinement  in such correctional facility, penitentiary, jail, reforma-
 tory or correctional institution that might be adequate to  provide  for
 such [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S needs without requiring hospi-
 talization.  If  the examining physician knows that the person he OR SHE
 is examining has been under prior treatment, he OR SHE shall, insofar as
 possible, consult with the physician  or  psychologist  furnishing  such
 prior treatment prior to making his OR HER certificate.
   2.  In  the  city  of  New York, if the physician of a workhouse, city
 prison, jail, penitentiary or reformatory  reports  in  writing  to  the
 superintendent  of  such  institution  that a prisoner confined therein,
 serving a sentence of imprisonment, is in his OR  HER  opinion  mentally
 ill,  the  superintendent of said institution shall either transfer said
 prisoner to Bellevue or Kings county hospital for observation as to  his
 OR  HER mental condition by two examining physicians or shall secure two
 examining physicians to make such examination in his  institution.  Each
 such  physician,  if satisfied after a personal examination and observa-
 tion that the prisoner is mentally ill and in need of  care  and  treat-
 ment,  shall  make  a  certificate  to  such  effect. Before making such
 certificate, however, he OR SHE shall consider alternative forms of care
 and treatment available during confinement in such correctional  facili-
 ty,  penitentiary,  jail,  reformatory  or correctional institution that
 might be adequate to provide for such [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVID-
 UAL'S  needs  without requiring hospitalization. If the examining physi-
 cian knows that the person he OR SHE is examining has been  under  prior
 treatment, he OR SHE shall, insofar as possible, consult with the physi-
 cian or psychologist furnishing such prior treatment prior to making his
 OR HER certificate.
   3.  Upon  such certificates of the examining physicians being so made,
 it shall be delivered to the superintendent who shall thereupon apply by
 petition forthwith to a judge of the county  court  or  justice  of  the
 supreme  court  in  the  county, annexing such certificate to his OR HER
 petition, for an order committing such [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 to  a  hospital  for the mentally ill.   Upon every such application for
 such an order of commitment, notice thereof in writing, of at least five
 days, together with a copy of the petition, shall be  served  personally
 upon  the  alleged  mentally  ill  person,  and in addition thereto such
 notice and a copy of the petition shall be served upon either the  wife,
 the  husband,  the  father  or  mother or other nearest relative of such
 alleged mentally ill person, if there be any such known relative  within
 the state; and if not, such notice shall be served upon any known friend
 of  such  alleged  mentally  ill person within the state. If there be no
 such known relative or friend within  the  state,  the  giving  of  such
 notice  shall  be  dispensed with, but in such case the petition for the
 commitment shall recite the reasons why service  of  such  notice  on  a
 relative or friend of the alleged mentally ill person was dispensed with
 and,  in such case, the order for commitment shall recite why service of
 such a notice on a relative or friend of the alleged mentally ill person
 was dispensed with. Copies of the notice, the petition and  the  certif-
 icates  of  the  examining  physicians  shall  also  be given the mental
 hygiene legal service. The mental hygiene legal service shall inform the

 S. 3332                            110

 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and, in proper cases, others interested
 in the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S welfare, of  the  procedures
 for  placement in a hospital and of the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL'S right to have a hearing, to have judicial review with a right to a
 jury  trial,  to  be  represented  by counsel and to seek an independent
 medical opinion. The mental hygiene legal service  shall  have  personal
 access to such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL for such purposes.
   9. Except as provided in subdivision two OF THIS SECTION pertaining to
 prisoners  confined  in  the  city of New York, an [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL of a correctional facility or a county jail may  be  admitted
 on  an  emergency  basis to the Central New York Psychiatric Center upon
 the certification by  two  examining  physicians,  including  physicians
 employed  by the office of mental health and associated with the correc-
 tional facility  in  which  such  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is
 confined,  that  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  suffers from a
 mental illness which is likely to result in  serious  harm  to  himself,
 HERSELF  or  others as defined in subdivision (a) of section 9.39 of the
 mental hygiene law. Any person so committed shall be  delivered  by  the
 superintendent  within a twenty-four hour period, to the director of the
 appropriate hospital as designated in the rules and regulations  of  the
 office  of  mental  health.  Upon  delivery of such person to a hospital
 operated by the office of mental health, a proceeding under this section
 shall immediately be commenced.
   13. Notwithstanding any provision of law  to  the  contrary,  when  an
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is being examined in anticipation of
 his or her conditional release, release to parole supervision,  or  when
 his or her sentence to a term of imprisonment expires, the provisions of
 subdivision  one  of  section four hundred four of this article shall be
 applicable and such commitment shall be effectuated in  accordance  with
 the  provisions  of  article  nine  or ten of the mental hygiene law, as
 appropriate.
   § 196. Section 403 of the correction law, as added by chapter  766  of
 the laws of 1976, is amended to read as follows:
   §  403.  Department  or superintendent to provide certain records. The
 department or superintendent shall furnish to the department  of  mental
 hygiene  a  copy  of  the  health and psychiatric records and a sentence
 calculation for each [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL placed in a hospi-
 tal. The sentence calculation shall include the maximum expiration  date
 and  tentative  conditional  release  date and the parole eligibility or
 release consideration hearing date. Such records shall be  furnished  to
 the  director of the hospital upon delivery of the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL.
   § 197. Section 404 of the correction law, as added by chapter  766  of
 the  laws  of 1976, subdivision 1 as amended by chapter 7 of the laws of

 subdivision 4 as added by chapter 548 of the laws of 2014, is amended to
 read as follows:
   §  404. Disposition of mentally ill [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS
 upon release to parole, conditional release, or expiration of  sentence.
 1.  Whenever an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL committed to a hospital
 in the department of mental hygiene or whenever an [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL is  examined  in  anticipation  of  his  or  her  conditional
 release, release to parole supervision, or when his or her sentence to a
 term  of  imprisonment expires and such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 shall continue to be mentally ill and in need of care and  treatment  at
 the  time  of  his  or her conditional release, release to parole super-

 S. 3332                            111

 vision, or when his or her sentence to a term of  imprisonment  expires,
 the  director  of  the  hospital or the superintendent of a correctional
 facility may apply for the person's admission to a hospital for the care
 and  treatment  of  the mentally ill in the department of mental hygiene
 pursuant to article nine of the mental hygiene  law,  or  alternatively,
 the commissioner may apply for the person's admission to a secure treat-
 ment facility pursuant to article ten of the mental hygiene law.
   2.  The director may discharge any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL at
 the expiration of the term for which he OR  SHE  was  sentenced  who  is
 still  mentally ill, but who, in the opinion of the director, is reason-
 ably safe to be at large. Such discharged [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL shall be entitled to suitable clothing  adapted  to  the  season  in
 which  he  OR SHE is discharged, and if it cannot be otherwise obtained,
 the business officer, or other officer having like  duties  shall,  upon
 the  order of the director, or of the commissioner of mental hygiene, as
 the case may be, furnish the same, and money in an amount to be fixed by
 such commissioner with the approval of the director of  the  budget,  to
 defray  his  OR  HER expenses until he OR SHE can reach his OR HER rela-
 tives or friends, or find employment to earn a subsistence.
   3. Within a reasonable period prior to discharge of an [inmate] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUAL committed from a state correctional facility  from  a
 hospital  in  the  department  of  mental  hygiene to the community, the
 director shall ensure that a clinical assessment has been  completed  to
 determine  whether the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL meets the crite-
 ria for assisted outpatient treatment pursuant  to  subdivision  (c)  of
 section  9.60 of the mental hygiene law. If, as a result of such assess-
 ment, the director determines that the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 meets  such  criteria,  prior  to discharge the director of the hospital
 shall either petition for a court order pursuant to section 9.60 of  the
 mental  hygiene  law,  or report in writing to the director of community
 services of the local governmental unit in which the [inmate]  INCARCER-
 ATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  expected to reside so that an investigation may be
 conducted pursuant to section 9.47 of the mental hygiene law.
   4. Every [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who  has  received  mental
 health  treatment  pursuant to this article within three years of his or
 her anticipated release date from a state correctional facility shall be
 provided with mental health discharge planning and, when  necessary,  an
 appointment  with  a mental health professional in the community who can
 prescribe medications following discharge and sufficient  mental  health
 medications and prescriptions to bridge the period between discharge and
 such  time  as  such  mental  health professional may assume care of the
 patient. [Inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  who  have  refused  mental
 health  treatment  may also be provided mental health discharge planning
 and any necessary appointment with a mental health professional.

 S. 3332                            112
 
   Consistent with the commission's rules and regulations  regarding  the
 assignment  of  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS to housing units, the
 chief administrative officer shall exercise good judgment and discretion
 and shall take all reasonable steps to ensure  that  the  assignment  of
 persons to facility housing units:
   (4)  prior  history  of  a  hostile relationship with another [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL;
   (8) any other information concerning the  safety  or  welfare  of  the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.
   (2) determinations made upon an interview with an [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL at the time of classification;
   where  it  is  determined  that  the  county does not have an approved
 service plan in effect pursuant to article thirteen-A of  the  executive
 law  or  is  found  to  be  in  non-compliance therewith, as provided in
 section two hundred sixty-three of  such  law,  it  shall  prohibit  the
 commingling of any of the following categories of [inmates] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS:
   Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of this subdivision to the contrary,
 classification as authorized pursuant to this section may occur  without
 compliance  with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this subdivision for a period
 not to exceed six months immediately following the submission of a  plan
 to  the division pursuant to section two hundred sixty-two of the execu-
 tive law. During such six month period the commission shall undertake to
 review, observe and assess the classification of [inmates]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS  in  local  correctional facilities as authorized under this
 section to thereby ascertain safeguards which should be incorporated  in
 its  rules  and  regulations.  Further,  during such six month period in
 which such classification shall be permitted pursuant to  this  subdivi-
 sion, the commission shall evaluate whether a local correctional facili-
 ty  is in substantial noncompliance with rules and regulations regarding
 the requirements specified in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this subdi-
 vision and shall determine at the end of such six month  period  whether
 substantial  noncompliance  exists.  At  the expiration of the six month
 period if the commission finds a local facility in  substantial  noncom-
 pliance,  the  commission  shall order that the prohibition set forth in
 this subdivision immediately take effect. The commissioner shall  advise
 the chief administrative officer of such facility of the specific nature
 of the noncompliance and the specific measures which should be undertak-
 en  to  remedy  the  noncompliance.  When such measures have been imple-
 mented, the chief administrative  officer  shall  certify  same  to  the
 commissioner  and  upon  the  verification  thereof by the commissioner,
 shall permit the chief  administrative  officer  to  classify  [inmates]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  as  provided under this section. In the event
 substantial noncompliance is not found at  the  expiration  of  the  six
 month period, then the local correctional facility may continue to clas-
 sify [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS as authorized in this section.
   The  chief  administrative  officer  shall forward to the commission a
 quarterly report relative to the housing of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUALS. The report shall include, but not be limited to:
   13. Where in the opinion of the chief administrative officer an  emer-
 gency  overcrowding  condition  exists  in a local correctional facility
 caused in part by the prohibition against  the  commingling  of  persons
 under  eighteen years of age with persons eighteen years of age or older
 or the commingling of persons  eighteen  years  of  age  or  older  with
 persons  under  eighteen  years of age, the chief administrative officer
 may apply to the commission for permission to  commingle  the  aforemen-

 S. 3332                            113
 
 tioned categories of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS for a period not
 to  exceed thirty days as provided herein. The commission shall acknowl-
 edge to the chief administrative officer the receipt of such application
 upon its receipt. The chief administrative officer shall be permitted to
 commingle such [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS upon acknowledgment of
 receipt  of  the  application  by  the  commission. The commission shall
 assess the application within seven  days  of  receipt.  The  commission
 shall deny any such application and shall prohibit the continued commin-
 gling of such [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS where it has found that
 the  local correctional facility does not meet the criteria set forth in
 this subdivision and further is in substantial noncompliance with  mini-
 mum  staffing  requirements  as  provided  in commission rules and regu-
 lations. In addition, the commission shall determine whether the commin-
 gling of such [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS presents  a  danger  to
 the health, safety or welfare of any such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL.  If  no  such  danger  exists  the chief administrative officer may
 continue the commingling until  the  expiration  of  the  aforementioned
 thirty  day  period  or until such time as he OR SHE determines that the
 overcrowding which necessitated the commingling no longer exists, which-
 ever occurs first. In the event  the  commission  determines  that  such
 danger  exists,  it  shall  immediately  notify the chief administrative
 officer, and the commingling of such [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS
 shall  cease.  Such  notification  shall include specific measures which
 should be undertaken by the chief  administrative  officer,  to  correct
 such  dangers. The chief administrative officer may correct such dangers
 and reapply to the commission for permission to commingle;  however,  no
 commingling  may  take place until such time as the commission certifies
 that the facility is now in compliance with the measures  set  forth  in
 the  notification  under  this  subdivision. When such certification has
 been received by the chief administrative officer, the  commingling  may
 continue  for thirty days, less any time during which the chief adminis-
 trative  officer  commingled  such  [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS
 following  his  OR HER application to the commission, or until such time
 as he determines that the overcrowding which  necessitated  the  commin-
 gling no longer exists, whichever occurs first. The chief administrative
 officer may apply for permission to commingle such [inmates] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUALS for up to two additional thirty day periods, in conformi-
 ty  with  the  provisions and the requirements of this subdivision, in a
 given calendar year. For the period ending December thirtieth,  nineteen
 hundred  eighty-four,  a locality may not apply for more than one thirty
 day commingling period.

 (iii)  any  other  funds  received  by  or on behalf of the prisoner and
 deposited with such sheriff or municipal official in accordance with the
 written procedures established by the  commission.  Whenever  the  total

 S. 3332                            114
 
 value of unencumbered funds in a prisoner's account exceeds ten thousand
 dollars,  such  sheriff  or  official  shall  give written notice to the
 office of victim services.
   8.  A  sheriff,  the  New York city commissioner of correction, or the
 Westchester county commissioner of correction, as the case may be, shall
 provide written notice to all [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS serving
 a definite sentence for a specified crime defined in  paragraph  (e)  of
 subdivision one of section six hundred thirty-two-a of the executive law
 who  may be subject to any requirement to report to the office of victim
 services any funds of a convicted  person  as  defined  in  section  six
 hundred  thirty-two-a  of  the  executive  law,  the procedures for such
 reporting and any potential penalty for a failure to comply.
   § 200. Subdivision 3 of  section  500-d  of  the  correction  law,  as
 amended  by  chapter  256  of  the  laws  of 2010, is amended to read as
 follows:
   (3) Such keeper may, with the consent of the board of  supervisors  of
 the  county,  or  the county judge, from time to time, cause such of the
 convicts under his OR HER charge as are capable of  hard  labor,  to  be
 employed  outside  of  the  jail in the same, or in an adjoining county,
 upon such terms as may be agreed upon between the keepers and the  offi-
 cers,  or  persons, under whose direction such convicts shall be placed,
 subject to such regulations as the board or judge may prescribe; and the
 board of supervisors of the several counties are  authorized  to  employ
 convicts  under sentence to confinement in the county jails, in building
 and repairing penal institutions of  the  county  and  in  building  and
 repairing  the highways in their respective counties or in preparing the
 materials for such highways for sale to and for the use  of  the  state,
 counties,  towns, villages or cities, and in cutting wood and performing
 other work which is commonly carried on at a prison camp,  and  to  make
 rules and regulations for their employment; and the said board of super-
 visors are hereby authorized to cause money to be raised by taxation for
 the  purpose  of  furnishing  materials and carrying this provision into
 effect; and the courts of this state are hereby authorized  to  sentence
 convicts  committed  to detention in the county jails to such hard labor
 as may be provided for them by the boards of supervisors.  This  section
 as  amended  shall  not  affect  a county wholly included within a city.
 Notwithstanding any other provision of  law,  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  may  be  permitted  to  leave the institution under guard to
 voluntarily perform work for a nonprofit organization pursuant  to  this
 subdivision.  As used in this section, the term "nonprofit organization"
 means an organization operated exclusively for religious, charitable, or

 this section from any third party coverage or indemnification carried by
 an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL.    Such  third party coverage or
 indemnification shall first be applied against the  total  cost  to  the
 hospital  or  other  provider  as  established  in  accordance  with the

 ATED INDIVIDUALS committed to the custody of a local correctional facil-
 ity  pursuant  to  paragraph  (e)  OF  SUBDIVISION  ONE  of section five
 hundred-a of this article. All rules and regulations promulgated by  the

 if  a  pestilential disease breaks out in the jail or in the vicinity of
 the jail and the physician to the jail certifies that it  is  likely  to
 endanger the health of any or all of the [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UALS  in the jail, the state commission of correction, upon application,
 must, by an instrument in writing, filed with the clerk of  the  county,
 designate  another  suitable place within the county, or the jail of any
 other county, for the confinement of some or all of the [inmates] INCAR-
 CERATED INDIVIDUALS, as the case requires. The place so designated ther-
 eupon  becomes,  to  all  intents  and  purposes,  except  as  otherwise
 prescribed in this article, the jail of the county for which it has been
 so  designated, and the purposes expressed in the instrument designating
 the same. The designation may be amended, modified  or  revoked  by  the
 state  commission  of  correction  by a subsequent instrument in writing
 filed with the clerk of the county.
   (b) If transfer to the jail of  another  county  would  allow  for  an
 [inmate's]   INCARCERATED   INDIVIDUAL'S   participation  in  beneficial
 programming, the state commission of correction,  upon  application  and
 the  consent  of  such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and any involved
 sheriff, may, by an instrument in writing, filed with the clerk  of  the
 county,  designate the jail of such other county, for the confinement of
 such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, as the case requires. The jail so
 designated thereupon becomes, to all intents  and  purposes,  except  as
 otherwise  prescribed  in this article, the jail of the county for which
 it has been so designated, and the purposes expressed in the  instrument
 designating  the  same.  The  designation  may  be  amended, modified or
 revoked by the state commission of correction by a subsequent instrument
 in writing filed with the clerk of the county.
   2. Where the jail in a county becomes unfit or unsafe for the confine-
 ment of some or all of the [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS due to  an
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  disturbance  or  other extraordinary
 circumstances, including but not limited to a natural disaster, unantic-
 ipated deficiencies in the structural integrity of  a  facility  or  the
 inability to provide one or more [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS with
 essential services such as medical care, upon the request of the munici-
 pal  official  as  defined  in subdivision four of section forty of this
 chapter and no other suitable place within the county nor  the  jail  of
 any  other  county  is immediately available to house some or all of the
 [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS, the commissioner of corrections  and
 community  supervision  may,  in his or her sole discretion, make avail-
 able, upon such terms and conditions as he or she may deem  appropriate,
 all  or any part of a state correctional institution for the confinement
 of some or all of such [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS as an  adjunct
 to  the  county jail for a period not to exceed thirty days. However, if
 the county jail remains unfit or unsafe for the confinement of  some  or
 all  of  such [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS beyond thirty days, the
 state commission of correction, with the consent of the commissioner  of
 corrections  and community supervision, may extend the availability of a
 state correctional institution for one or  more  additional  thirty  day
 periods.  The  state commission of correction shall promulgate rules and
 regulations governing the temporary transfer of  [inmates]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS  to  state  correctional  institutions  from  county  jails,
 including  but  not  limited  to  provisions  for  confinement  of  such
 [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in the nearest correctional facility,
 to the maximum extent practicable, taking into account necessary securi-
 ty.  The  commissioner  of corrections and community supervision may, in

 S. 3332                            117

 his or her sole  discretion,  based  on  standards  promulgated  by  the
 department, determine whether a county shall reimburse the state for any
 or all of the actual costs of confinement as approved by the director of
 the  division of the budget.  On or before the expiration of each thirty
 day period, the state commission of correction must make an  appropriate
 designation  pursuant  to  subdivision one OF THIS SECTION if the county
 jail remains unfit or unsafe for the confinement of some or all  of  the
 [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS and consent to the continued avail-
 ability of a state correctional institution as required for herein.  The
 superintendence, management and control of a state correctional institu-
 tion or part thereof made available pursuant hereto  and  the  [inmates]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  housed  therein  shall  be as directed by the
 commissioner of corrections and community supervision.
   § 206. Subdivisions 1, 3 and 4 of section 505 of the  correction  law,
 as  added  by  chapter  437  of the laws of 2013, are amended to read as
 follows:
   1. Where an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who is not  yet  eighteen
 years  of  age has been committed to the custody of the sheriff or other
 person in charge of a local correctional facility and no medical consent
 has been obtained prior to commitment, the  commitment  order  shall  be
 deemed to grant to the minor the capacity to consent to routine medical,
 dental and mental health services and treatment to himself or herself.
   3.  (a)  At any time prior to the date the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL becomes eighteen years of age, the [inmate's] INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL'S parent or legal guardian may institute legal proceedings pursu-
 ant  to  section  70.20  of  the penal law objecting to the provision of
 routine medical, dental or mental health services  and  treatment  being
 provided to the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.
   (b)  A  notice  of motion shall be served on the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL and the sheriff or  other  person  in  charge  of  the  local
 correctional  facility not less than seven days prior to the return date
 of the motion. The person on whom the notice of motion is  served  shall
 answer  the  motion  not  less  than two days before the return date. On
 examining the motion and answer and, in its  discretion,  after  hearing
 argument,  the  court  shall  enter  an  order,  granting or denying the
 motion.
   4. Nothing in this section shall  preclude  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  from  consenting  on  his  or her own behalf to any medical,
 dental or mental health services and treatment where  otherwise  author-
 ized by law to do so.
   §  207.  Subdivision 1 and paragraph a of subdivision 2 of section 508
 of the correction law, as amended by chapter 196 of the  laws  of  2017,
 are amended to read as follows:
   1.  A  sheriff,  in his or her discretion, may by written order permit
 [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS  confined  in  a  local  correctional
 facility  to  receive  medical diagnosis and treatment in outside hospi-
 tals, upon the determination that such outside treatment  and  diagnosis
 is necessary by reason of inadequate facilities within the local correc-
 tional  facility.  Such  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS shall remain
 under the jurisdiction and in the custody of said  sheriff  while  in  a
 hospital, other than a secure facility, as such term is defined in para-
 graph  b  of  subdivision  two  of  this section, and said sheriff shall
 enforce proper measures in each case to safely maintain  such  jurisdic-
 tion and custody.
   a. If a physician to a jail or in case of a vacancy a physician acting
 as  such  and  the  warden  or jailer certify in writing that a prisoner

 S. 3332                            118
 
 confined in a jail, either in a civil cause or upon a  criminal  charge,
 is  in such a state of mental health that he or she is in need of invol-
 untary care and treatment and in their opinion should be  removed  to  a
 psychiatric  hospital  for  treatment,  the warden or jailer shall imme-
 diately notify the  director  who  shall  have  the  responsibility  for
 providing  treatment  for such prisoner. If such director after examina-
 tion of the prisoner by an examining physician designated by him or  her
 shall  determine  that  such prisoner is in need of involuntary care and
 treatment, the director shall file an application  for  the  involuntary
 hospitalization  of such prisoner pursuant to article nine of the mental
 hygiene law in a hospital or secure facility, as defined in paragraph  b
 of  this  subdivision, operated by the office of mental health or in the
 case of a prisoner confined in a jail in a city or  county  which  main-
 tains  or  operates  a  general hospital containing a psychiatric prison
 ward approved by the office of mental health to  such  prison  ward  for
 care  and  treatment or to any other psychiatric hospital if such prison
 ward is filled to capacity. Such application shall be supported  by  the
 certificate  of  two  physicians  in accordance with the requirements of
 section 9.27 of the mental hygiene law and thereupon such prisoner shall
 be admitted forthwith to the hospital or secure facility in  which  such
 application  is  filed,  and  the  procedures  of the mental hygiene law
 governing the hospitalization of such prisoner.  The  jailer  or  warden
 having  custody of the prisoner shall deliver the prisoner to the hospi-
 tal or secure facility with which the director has  filed  the  applica-
 tion.  If  such  jailer or warden shall certify that such prisoner has a
 mental illness which is likely to result in  serious  harm  to  himself,
 HERSELF or others and for which care in a psychiatric hospital is appro-
 priate such jailer or warden shall effect the admission of such prisoner
 to  a  hospital  or  secure  facility  forthwith  in accordance with the
 provisions of section 9.37 or 9.39 of the mental  hygiene  law  and  the
 hospital  shall  admit  such  prisoner.  Upon admission of the prisoner,
 pursuant to section 9.37 or 9.39 of the mental hygiene law,  the  jailer
 or warden shall notify the director, the prisoner's attorney, and his or
 her  family,  where information about the family is available. While the
 prisoner is in the hospital, other than a secure  facility,  he  or  she
 shall  remain  in  the  custody  under sufficient guard of the jailer or
 warden in charge of the jail from which he or she came. When the prison-
 er is in a secure facility, the jailer or warden may transfer custody of
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  to  the  commissioner  of  mental
 health,  pursuant to an agreement between such jailer or warden and such
 commissioner. A prisoner admitted to a psychiatric hospital pursuant  to
 section  9.27, 9.37 or 9.39 of the mental hygiene law may be retained at
 the hospital or secure facility pursuant to the provisions of the mental
 hygiene law until he or she has improved  sufficiently  in  his  or  her
 mental  illness  so that hospitalization is no longer necessary or until
 ordered by the court to be returned to the jail  whichever  comes  first
 and  in  either event, the prisoner shall thereupon be returned to jail.
 The cost of the care and treatment of such prisoners in the hospital  or
 secure  facility  shall be defrayed in accordance with the provisions of
 the mental hygiene law in such cases provided.
   From the time of admission of a prisoner  to  a  hospital  under  this
 section  the  retention of such prisoner for care and treatment shall be
 subject to the provisions  for  notice,  hearing,  review  and  judicial
 approval  of  continued  retention  or  transfer and continued retention
 provided by article nine of the mental hygiene law for the admission and
 retention of involuntary patients.

 gious  belief,  and  to  worship  God according to the dictates of their

 VIDUALS  in  such  manner  as  may best carry into effect the spirit and

   § 214. The section heading, paragraph (c) of subdivision 1 and  subdi-
 vision  2  of section 611 of the correction law, the section heading and
 subdivision 2 as amended by chapter 242 of the laws of 1930,  and  para-
 graph (c) of subdivision 1 as amended by chapter 17 of the laws of 2016,
 are amended to read as follows:
   Births  to  [inmates]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS of correctional insti-
 tutions and care of children of [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  of
 correctional institutions.
   (c)  No  restraints  of  any  kind shall be used when such woman is in
 labor, admitted to a hospital, institution or clinic  for  delivery,  or
 recovering after giving birth. Any such personnel as may be necessary to
 supervise  the woman during transport to and from and during her stay at
 the hospital, institution or clinic shall be provided to ensure adequate
 care, custody and control of the  woman,  except  that  no  correctional
 staff  shall  be present in the delivery room during the birth of a baby
 unless requested by the medical staff supervising such  delivery  or  by
 the  woman  giving  birth.  The  superintendent or sheriff or his or her
 designee shall cause such woman to be subject to return to such institu-
 tion or local correctional facility as soon after the birth of her child
 as the state of her health will permit  as  determined  by  the  medical
 professional  responsible  for  the care of such woman. If such woman is
 confined in a local correctional facility, the expense of such  accommo-
 dation,  maintenance and medical care shall be paid by such woman or her
 relatives or from any available funds of the local correctional facility
 and if not available from such sources, shall be a charge upon the coun-
 ty, city or town in which is located the court from which such  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL was committed to such local correctional facili-
 ty.  If  such  woman is confined in any institution under the control of
 the department, the  expense  of  such  accommodation,  maintenance  and
 medical  care  shall  be  paid by such woman or her relatives and if not
 available from such sources, such maintenance and medical care shall  be
 paid by the state.  In cases where payment of such accommodations, main-
 tenance  and  medical  care  is assumed by the county, city or town from
 which such [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  was  committed  the  payor
 shall  make payment by issuing payment instrument in favor of the agency
 or individual that provided  such  accommodations  and  services,  after
 certification  has been made by the head of the institution to which the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL was legally confined, that the  charges
 for such accommodations, maintenance and medical care were necessary and
 are  just,  and  that  the  institution  has no available funds for such
 purpose.
   2. A child so born may be returned with its mother to the correctional
 institution in which the mother is confined  unless  the  chief  medical
 officer of the correctional institution shall certify that the mother is

 S. 3332                            123
 
 physically  unfit  to care for the child, in which case the statement of
 the said medical officer shall be final.  A  child  may  remain  in  the
 correctional institution with its mother for such period as seems desir-
 able for the welfare of such child, but not after it is one year of age,
 provided,  however, if the mother is in a state reformatory and is to be
 paroled shortly after the child becomes one year of age, such child  may
 remain  at  the state reformatory until its mother is paroled, but in no
 case after the child is eighteen months old. The officer  in  charge  of
 such  institution may cause a child cared for therein with its mother to
 be removed from the institution at any time before the child is one year
 of age. He shall make provision for a child removed from the institution
 without its mother or a child born  to  a  woman  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  who  is  not  returned to the institution with its mother as
 hereinafter provided.  He may, upon proof being furnished by the  father
 or  other  relatives  of their ability to properly care for and maintain
 such child, give the child into the care and custody of such  father  or
 other  relatives,  who  shall  thereafter maintain the same at their own
 expense. If it shall appear that such  father  or  other  relatives  are
 unable  to properly care for and maintain such child, such officer shall
 place the child in the care of the commissioner  of  public  welfare  or
 other officer or board exercising in relation to children the power of a
 commissioner  of  public  welfare of the county from which such [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL was committed as a charge upon such county.  The
 officer  in  charge  of  the correctional institution shall send to such
 commissioner, officer or board a report of all information available  in
 regard  to the mother and the child. Such commissioner of public welfare
 or other officer or board shall care for or  place  out  such  child  as
 provided by law in the case of a child becoming dependent upon the coun-
 ty.
   §  215.  Subdivisions  1  and  2 of section 618 of the correction law,
 subdivision 1 as amended by chapter 413 of the laws of 1993 and subdivi-
 sion 2 as amended by chapter 654 of the laws of  1974,  are  amended  to

 pursuant  to subdivision seven of section three hundred eighty-four-b of

   § 217. Section 622 of the correction law, as added by chapter 7 of the
 laws of 2007, subdivision 6 as amended by chapter 672  of  the  laws  of

   §  622.  Sex  offender treatment program. 1. The department shall make
 available a sex offender treatment program for those [inmates] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUALS who are serving sentences for felony sex  offenses,  or
 for  other  offenses  defined in subdivision (p) of section 10.03 of the
 mental hygiene law, and are identified as having a need for such program
 in accordance with sections eight hundred three and eight  hundred  five
 of  this  chapter.  In  developing the treatment program, the department
 shall give due regard to  standards,  guidelines,  best  practices,  and
 qualifications recommended by the office of sex offender management. The
 department  shall make such treatment programs available sufficiently in
 advance of the time of the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S  consid-
 eration by the case review team, pursuant to section 10.05 of the mental
 hygiene  law,  so  as  to  allow the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to
 complete the treatment program prior to that time.
   2. The primary purpose of the program shall be to reduce  the  likeli-
 hood  of  reoffending by assisting such offenders to control their chain
 of behaviors that lead to sexual offending. The length of  participation
 for   each   [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  to  achieve  successful
 completion shall  be  dependent  upon  the  initial  assessment  of  the
 [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  specific needs and the degree of
 progress made by the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL as  a  participant
 but shall not be less than six months.
   3. The department's sex offender treatment program shall include resi-
 dential programs, which shall require that at each correctional facility
 where  the  residential program is provided, [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL participants shall be housed within  the  same  housing  area  in
 order to provide clinically appropriate treatment, and to provide a more
 structured and controlled setting.
   4.  Each residential program shall be staffed with a licensed psychol-
 ogist who shall provide clinical supervision  to  the  treatment  staff,
 review, approve and modify treatment plans as appropriate for individual
 [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS,  provide  clinical assessments for
 participating [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS,  observe  and  partic-
 ipate  in  group sessions and make treatment recommendations. Each resi-
 dential program shall also be staffed with a  licensed  clinical  social
 worker  or  other  mental health professional who shall be knowledgeable
 about the administration of testing instruments  that  are  designed  to
 measure  the  degree  of  a  sex  offender's  psychopathy and his or her

 S. 3332                            125
 
 program needs. The assigned licensed psychologist shall  also  be  know-
 ledgeable about the application of such testing instruments.
   5.  Any  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL committed to the custody of
 the department on or after the effective date  of  this  section  for  a
 felony  sex offense, or for any of the other offenses listed in subdivi-
 sion (p) of section 10.03 of the mental hygiene law, shall, as  soon  as
 practicable,  be  initially  assessed  by  staff of the office of mental
 health who shall be knowledgeable regarding  the  diagnosis,  treatment,
 assessment or evaluation of sex offenders. The assessment shall include,
 but  not  be  limited  to,  the determination of the degree to which the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL presents a risk of violent sexual reci-
 divism and his or her need for sex offender treatment while in prison.
   6. Staff of the office of mental health and the office for people with
 developmental disabilities may be consulted about the [inmate's]  INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  treatment  needs  and may assist in providing any
 additional treatment services determined to be clinically appropriate to
 address  the  [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  underlying  mental
 abnormality or disorder. Such treatment services shall be provided using
 professionally accepted treatment protocols.
   §  218.  Section 623 of the correction law, as added by chapter 240 of
 the laws of 2007, is amended to read as follows:
   § 623. [Inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL telephone services.  1.  Tele-
 phone services contracts for [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in state
 correctional  facilities  shall be subject to the procurement provisions
 as set forth in article eleven of the state finance law provided, howev-
 er, that when determining the best value of such telephone service,  the
 lowest possible cost to the telephone user shall be emphasized.
   2.  The department shall make available either a "prepaid" or "collect
 call" system, or a combination thereof, for telephone service. Under the
 "prepaid" system, funds may be deposited into an account in order to pay
 for station-to-station calls, provided that nothing in this  subdivision
 shall  require the department to provide or administer a prepaid system.
 Under a "collect call" system, call recipients are billed for  the  cost
 of  an  accepted  telephone  call  initiated by an [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL. Under such "collect call" system, the provider  of  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  telephone  service,  as an additional means of
 payment, must permit the recipient of [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 calls  to  establish  an  account with such provider in order to deposit
 funds to pay for such collect calls in advance.
   3. The department shall not accept or receive revenue in excess of its
 reasonable operating cost for establishing and administering such  tele-
 phone  system  services  as provided in subdivisions one and two of this
 section.
   4. The department shall establish rules  and  regulations  or  depart-
 mental  procedures  to  ensure that any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 phone call system established by this section provides reasonable  secu-
 rity  measures  to preserve the safety and security of each correctional
 facility, all staff and all persons outside a facility who  may  receive
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL phone calls.

 ATED  INDIVIDUAL  whose  death  takes place during custody regarding the
 circumstances surrounding the death of such [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDI-

 provisions  of  his OR HER furlough program may be taken into custody by

 ity, shall be granted parole release at the expiration  of  his  OR  HER

 welfare  of  society.  Any  action  by the commissioner pursuant to this
 section shall be deemed a judicial function and shall not be  reviewable

 ened use of a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument shall not be  eligi-

 S. 3332                            133
 
 ble to participate in a work release program until he or she is eligible
 for  release  on parole or who will be eligible for release on parole or
 conditional release within eighteen months. Provided, further,  however,
 that  a  person  under  a  determinate  sentence as a second felony drug
 offender for a class B felony offense defined  in  article  two  hundred
 twenty  of the penal law, who was sentenced pursuant to section 70.70 of
 such law, shall not be eligible to participate in  a  temporary  release
 program until the time served under imprisonment for his or her determi-
 nate  sentence,  including  any  jail  time  credited  pursuant  to  the

 teen  months.  In the case of a person serving an indeterminate sentence
 of imprisonment imposed pursuant  to  the  penal  law  in  effect  after
 September  one,  nineteen  hundred sixty-seven, for the purposes of this
 article parole eligibility shall be upon the expiration of  the  minimum
 period  of  imprisonment  fixed  by the court or where the court has not
 fixed any period, after service of the minimum period fixed by the state
 board of parole.  If  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is  denied
 release  on  parole,  such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall not be
 deemed an eligible [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL until he or  she  is
 within  two  years  of  his  or her next scheduled appearance before the
 state parole board. In any case where an [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVID-
 UAL  is  denied  release  on  parole  while participating in a temporary
 release program, the department shall review the status of the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  to  determine  if  continued  placement in the
 program is appropriate. No person convicted of any escape or  absconding
 offense  defined  in  article two hundred five of the penal law shall be
 eligible for temporary release. Further, no person  under  sentence  for
 aggravated  harassment  of an employee by an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL as defined in section 240.32 of the penal law for,  any  homicide
 offense defined in article one hundred twenty-five of the penal law, for
 any  sex offense defined in article one hundred thirty of the penal law,
 or for an offense defined in section 255.25, 255.26  or  255.27  of  the
 penal  law shall be eligible to participate in a work release program as
 defined in subdivision three of this section. Nor shall any person under
 sentence for any sex offense defined in article one  hundred  thirty  of
 the penal law be eligible to participate in a community services program
 as  defined  in  subdivision  five  of this section. Notwithstanding the
 foregoing, no person who is an otherwise eligible [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  who  is under sentence for a crime involving: (a) infliction
 of serious physical injury upon another as defined in the penal  law  or
 (b)  any  other  offense involving the use or threatened use of a deadly
 weapon may participate in a temporary release program without the  writ-
 ten  approval  of  the  commissioner.  The commissioner shall promulgate
 regulations giving direction to the temporary release committee at  each
 institution  in  order  to  aid  such  committees  in  carrying out this
 mandate.
   The governor, by executive order, may exclude  or  limit  the  partic-
 ipation  of any class of otherwise eligible [inmates] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUALS from participation in a temporary release  program.  Nothing  in
 this  paragraph  shall be construed to affect either the validity of any
 executive order previously issued limiting the participation  of  other-
 wise  eligible [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS in such program or the
 authority of the commissioner to impose appropriate regulations limiting
 such participation.

 person shall be released into a work release  program  unless  prior  to
 release such person has a reasonable assurance of a job training program
 or  employment.  If  after release, such person ceases to be employed or

 the laws of 1977, subdivision 6 as amended by section 47 of subpart B of
 part C of chapter 62 of the laws of 2011, is amended to read as follows:
   § 855. Procedure for temporary release of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUALS.  1.  A  person  confined  in  an institution designated for the
 conduct of work release programs who is an eligible [inmate] INCARCERAT-
 ED INDIVIDUAL, may make application to the temporary  release  committee
 of  the  institution  for  permission  to  participate in a work release
 program.
   2. Any eligible [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL may make  application
 to  the  temporary  release  committee  for  participation in a furlough
 program or community services program, or  for  an  industrial  training
 leave or educational leave.
   3.  Any  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL may make application to the
 temporary release committee for a leave of  absence  provided,  however,
 that  in  exigent circumstances such application may be made directly to
 the superintendent of the institution and the superintendent  may  exer-
 cise  all  of  the  powers  of  the temporary release committee subject,
 however, to any limitation or requirement set forth  in  the  rules  and
 regulations  of  the department and subject further to the discretion of
 the commissioner. All leave of  absences  provided  in  exigent  circum-
 stances  shall  state  the  reasons  for  approval or disapproval of the
 application and shall be included in the [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDI-
 VIDUAL'S institutional parole file.
   4.  If  the  temporary  release  committee determines that a temporary
 release program for the applicant is consistent with the safety  of  the
 community and the welfare of the applicant, and is consistent with rules
 and regulations of the department, the committee, with the assistance of
 the  employees or unit designated by the commissioner pursuant to subdi-
 vision four of section eight hundred fifty-two of  this  article,  shall
 develop  a  suitable  program  of  temporary  release for the applicant.
 Consistent with these provisions, any educational  leave  program  shall
 consider the scheduling of classes to insure a reduction of release time
 not spent in educational pursuits.
   5.  The  committee  shall  then prepare a memorandum setting forth the
 details of the temporary release program including the  extended  bounds
 of  confinement and any other matter required by rules or regulations of
 the department. Such memorandum shall be transmitted to the  superinten-
 dent  who  may approve or reject the program, subject to rules and regu-
 lations promulgated by the commissioner. If the superintendent  approves
 the  program, he OR SHE shall indicate such approval in writing by sign-
 ing the memorandum. If the superintendent rejects the program, he OR SHE
 shall state his OR HER reasons in writing and  a  copy  of  his  OR  HER
 statement  shall be given to the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL and to
 the commissioner and such decision shall be reviewed by the  commission-
 er.  If  the commissioner rejects the program, he OR SHE shall state his
 OR HER reasons in writing. A copy of such statement shall  be  filed  in
 the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S institutional file.
   6. In order for an applicant to accept a program of temporary release,
 such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall agree to be bound by all the
 terms  and conditions thereof and shall indicate such agreement by sign-
 ing the memorandum of the program immediately below a statement  reading
 as follows: "I accept the foregoing program and agree to be bound by the
 terms  and  conditions  thereof.  I  understand that I will be under the
 supervision of the state department of corrections and community  super-
 vision  while I am away from the premises of the institution and I agree

 S. 3332                            140

 to comply with the instructions of any parole officer or other  employee
 of the department assigned to supervise me. I understand that my partic-
 ipation  in the program is a privilege which may be revoked at any time,
 and  that  if I violate any provision of the program I may be taken into
 custody by any peace officer or police officer and I will be subject  to
 disciplinary  procedures.  I  further understand that if I intentionally
 fail to return to the institution at or before the time specified in the
 memorandum I may be found guilty of a felony." Such agreement  shall  be
 placed  on  file at the institution from which such temporary release is
 granted.
   7. After approving the program of temporary release,  the  superinten-
 dent  may  then  permit  an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who has
 accepted such program to go outside  the  premises  of  the  institution
 within the limits of the extended bounds of confinement described in the
 memorandum;  provided,  however,  that  no  such permission shall become
 effective in the case of a work release or furlough program prior to the
 time at which the person to be released  becomes  an  eligible  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL.
   8. At least three days before releasing an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL  on  a temporary release program, the superintendent shall notify
 in writing the sheriff or chief of police of the  community  into  which
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is to be released.
   9.  Participation in a temporary release program shall be a privilege.
 Nothing contained in this article may be construed to  confer  upon  any
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL the right to participate, or to contin-
 ue to participate, in a temporary release program. The superintendent of
 the  institution  may at any time, and upon recommendation of the tempo-
 rary release committee or of the commissioner or of the chairman of  the
 state  board  of  parole  or  his  OR  HER  designee  shall,  revoke any
 [inmate's] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  privilege  to  participate  in  a
 program  of temporary release in accordance with regulations promulgated
 by the commissioner.
   § 231-a. The section heading, subdivisions 1, 5 and 6 of  section  853
 of  the correction law, as added by chapter 472 of the laws of 1969, are

   Procedure for release of eligible [inmates] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS.
 1.  A  person  confined  in an institution designated for the conduct of
 work release programs who is, or who within ninety days will become,  an
 eligible  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, may make application to the
 work release committee of the institution for permission to  participate
 in a work release program.
   5.  After  approving  the program of work release, the warden may then
 permit an eligible [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who  has  accepted
 such  program  to  go outside the premises of the institution within the
 limits of the extended bounds of confinement described in  the  memoran-
 dum.
   6. Participation in a work release program shall be a privilege. Noth-
 ing  contained  in  this  article  may  be  construed to confer upon any
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL the right to participate, or to contin-
 ue to participate, in a work release program. The warden of the institu-
 tion may at any time,  and  upon  recommendation  of  the  work  release
 committee  or of the chairman of the state board of parole or his OR HER
 designee shall, revoke any [inmate's] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S  privi-
 lege to participate in a program of work release.

   § 232. Section 856 of the correction law, as amended by chapter 691 of
 the  laws of 1977, subdivisions 1 and 4 as amended by chapter 843 of the
 laws of 1980, is amended to read as follows:
   §  856. Conduct of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS participating in
 a temporary release program. 1. An [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  who
 is permitted to leave the premises of an institution to participate in a
 temporary release program shall have on his or her person a card identi-
 fying  him  or  her  as  a participant in a temporary release program as
 signed by the superintendent of  the  institution  at  all  times  while
 outside  the  premises of the institution and shall exhibit such card to
 any peace officer or police officer upon request of  such  officer.  The
 commissioner  may,  by  regulation,  require such information, including
 effective dates, to be included in such card as he  OR  SHE  shall  deem
 necessary and proper.
   2.  If  the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL violates any provision of
 the program, or any rule or regulation promulgated by  the  commissioner
 for  conduct  of  [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  participating in
 temporary release programs, such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  shall
 be  subject  to disciplinary measures to the same extent as if he or she
 violated a rule  or  regulation  of  the  commissioner  for  conduct  of
 [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS within the premises of the institu-
 tion. The failure of an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to  voluntarily
 return  to the institution of his OR HER confinement more than ten hours
 after his OR HER prescribed time of return  shall  create  a  rebuttable
 presumption  that  the  failure  to return was intentional. Any [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who is found to  have  intentionally  failed  to
 return  pursuant  to this subdivision shall be an absconder in violation
 of his OR HER temporary release program and  will  not  be  an  eligible
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  as  defined  in  subdivision  two of
 section eight hundred fifty-one of this chapter. The  creation  of  such
 rebuttable  presumption  shall  not be admissible in any court of law as
 evidence of the commission of any crime defined in the penal law. A full
 report of any such violation, a summary of the facts and findings of the
 disciplinary hearing and disciplinary  measures  taken,  shall  be  made
 available to the board for the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S next
 scheduled  appearance  before  the  state  board of parole including any
 defense or explanation offered by the [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL
 in response at such hearing.
   3. The provisions of this chapter relating to good behavior allowances
 shall  apply  to  behavior  of  [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS while
 participating in temporary release  programs  outside  the  premises  of
 institutions, and such allowances may be granted, withheld, forfeited or
 cancelled  in  whole  or in part for behavior outside the premises of an
 institution to the same extent and in the same manner as is provided for
 behavior of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS within  the  premises  of
 institutions.
   4.  An  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who is in violation of the
 provisions of his or her temporary release program  may  be  taken  into
 custody  by  any peace officer or police officer and, in such event, the
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall be returned forthwith  to  either
 the  institution  that  released  him  or  her, or to the nearest secure
 facility where greater security is indicated.  In  any  case  where  the
 institution  is  in  a  county  other than the one in which the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is apprehended,  the  officer  may  deliver  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  to  the nearest institution, jail or
 lockup and it shall be the duty of the person in charge of said facility

 S. 3332                            142

 to hold such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL securely until  such  time
 as he or she is delivered into the custody of an officer of the institu-
 tion  from  which  he  or she was released. Upon delivering the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  to  an institution, jail or lockup, other than
 the one from which the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  was  released,
 the  officer  who apprehended the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall
 forthwith notify the superintendent of the institution  from  which  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL was released and it shall be the duty
 of the superintendent to effect the expeditious return of  the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to the institution.
   5.  Upon the conclusion or termination of a temporary release program,
 a full report of the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S performance in
 such program shall be prepared in accordance  with  regulations  of  the
 commissioner.  Such  report shall include but not be limited to: adjust-
 ment to release, supervision contacts, statement of  any  violations  of
 the  terms  and  conditions  of  release and of any disciplinary actions
 taken, and an assessment of  the  [inmate's]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL'S
 suitability for parole. Such report shall be made available to the state
 board of parole for the [inmate's] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S next sched-
 uled appearance before such board.
   § 232-a. Section 854 of the correction law, as added by chapter 472 of
 the laws of 1969, subdivision 2 as amended by section 46 of subpart B of

 all times while outside the premises of the institution and shall exhib-
 it such copy to any peace officer upon request of the officer.
   2.  If  the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL violates any provision of
 the program, or any rule or regulation promulgated by  the  commissioner
 of corrections and community supervision for conduct of [inmates] INCAR-
 CERATED  INDIVIDUALS  participating  in work release programs, he or she
 shall be subject to disciplinary measures to the same extent as if he or
 she violated a rule or regulation of the  commissioner  for  conduct  of
 [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS within the premises of the institu-
 tion.
   3. The provisions of this chapter relating to good behavior allowances
 shall apply to behavior  of  [inmates]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUALS  while
 participating  in  work  release programs outside the premises of insti-
 tutions, and such allowances may  be  granted,  withheld,  forfeited  or
 cancelled  in  whole  or in part for behavior outside the premises of an
 institution to the same extent and in the same manner as is provided for
 behavior of [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS within  the  premises  of
 institutions.
   4.  An  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who is in violation of the
 provisions of his OR HER work release program may be taken into  custody
 by any peace officer and, in such event, the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL  shall be returned forthwith to the institution that released him
 OR HER.  In any case where the institution is in a county other than the
 one in which the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL  is  apprehended,  the
 officer  may deliver the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to the nearest
 institution, jail or lockup and it shall be the duty of  the  person  in
 charge  of  said  facility to hold such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 securely until such time as he OR SHE is delivered into  custody  of  an

 S. 3332                            143
 
 officer  of  the  institution  from  which  he OR SHE was released. Upon
 delivering the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL to an institution,  jail
 or  lockup,  other  than  the one from which he OR SHE was released, the
 peace officer who apprehended the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall
 forthwith  notify  the warden of the institution from which the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL was released and it shall be  the  duty  of  the
 warden  to  effect  the  expeditious return of the [inmate] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL to the institution.

 to the warden who shall deposit such receipts as [inmates'] INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUALS' funds pursuant to section one hundred sixteen of this chap-
 ter. Such receipts shall not be subject to attachment or garnishment  in
 the  hands  of  the warden. The commissioner of correction may authorize
 the warden to make disbursements of such receipts, and such receipts may

 the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  has  a medical or mental health
 condition that will render the [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  unable
 to successfully complete the shock incarceration program, and the facil-
 ity  in  which  the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL will participate in

 sentence."

 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL sentenced to a determinate sentence  of
 imprisonment  who  has  successfully  completed  a  shock  incarceration
 program shall be eligible to receive such a certificate of earned eligi-
 bility and shall be immediately eligible to be conditionally released.

 lege.  Nothing contained in this article may be construed to confer upon
 any [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL the right to participate or contin-
 ue to participate therein.

   § 249. Subdivision (f) of section 1101 of the civil practice  law  and

 1999, subparagraph (i) of paragraph 1 and  paragraph  3  as  amended  by
 section  51 of subpart B of part C of chapter 62 of the laws of 2011, is
 amended to read as follows:
   (f) Fees for [inmates] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS.   1.  Notwithstanding
 any  other  provision  of law to the contrary, a federal, state or local
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL under  sentence  for  conviction  of  a
 crime  may  seek to commence his or her action or proceeding by paying a
 reduced filing fee as provided in paragraph  two  of  this  subdivision.
 Such  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  shall  file the form affidavit
 referred to in subdivision (d) of this section along  with  the  summons
 and  complaint  or  summons  with  notice  or  third-party  summons  and
 complaint or petition or notice of petition or order to show  cause.  As
 part  of  such  application,  the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL shall
 indicate the name and mailing address of the facility at which he or she
 is confined along with the name and mailing address of any other  feder-
 al,  state  or local facility at which he or she was confined during the
 preceding six month period. The case will be given an  index  number  if
 applicable,  or,  in courts other than the supreme or county courts, any
 necessary filing number and the application will be submitted to a judge
 of the court. Upon receipt of the application, the  court  shall  obtain
 from  the  appropriate  official  of  the facility at which the [inmate]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is confined a certified copy of  the  [inmate's]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S trust fund account statement (or institutional
 equivalent)  for the six month period preceding filing of the [inmate's]
 INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL'S  application.  If  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL  has been confined for less than six months at such facility,
 the court shall obtain additional information as follows:

 S. 3332                            149
 
   (i) in the case of a state [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  who  has
 been  transferred  from  another  state correctional facility, the court
 shall obtain a trust fund account statement for  the  six  month  period
 from  the  central office of the department of corrections and community
 supervision in Albany; or
   (ii)  in  the  case of a state [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL who is
 newly transferred from a federal or  local  correctional  facility,  the
 court  shall obtain any trust fund account statement currently available
 from such facility. The court  may,  in  its  discretion,  seek  further
 information from the prior or current facility.
   2.  If  the court determines that the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 has insufficient means to pay the full filing fee, the court may  permit
 the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL to pay a reduced filing fee, the
 minimum of which shall not be less than fifteen dollars and the  maximum
 of  which  shall not be more than fifty dollars. The court shall require
 an initial payment of such portion of the  reduced  filing  fee  as  the
 [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL can reasonably afford or shall author-
 ize no initial payment of the fee if  exceptional  circumstances  render
 the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  unable to pay any fee; provided
 however, that the difference between the amount of  the  reduced  filing
 fee  and  the amount paid by the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL in the
 initial partial payment shall be assessed against the [inmate] INCARCER-
 ATED INDIVIDUAL as an outstanding obligation to be collected  either  by
 the  superintendent  or  the municipal official of the facility at which
 the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is confined, as the case may be, in
 the same manner that mandatory surcharges are collected as provided  for
 in  subdivision  five of section 60.35 of the penal law. The court shall
 notify the superintendent or the  municipal  official  of  the  facility
 where  the  [inmate]  INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL is housed of the amount of
 the reduced filing fee that was not directed to be paid by the  [inmate]
 INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL.  Thereafter, the superintendent or the munici-
 pal official shall forward to the court any fee  obligations  that  have
 been collected, provided however, that:
   (i)  in  no  event shall the filing fee collected exceed the amount of
 fees required for the commencement of an action or proceeding; and
   (ii) in no event shall an [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL be  prohib-
 ited from proceeding for the reason that the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL  has  no  assets and no means by which to pay the initial partial
 filing fee.
   3. The institution at which an  [inmate]  INCARCERATED  INDIVIDUAL  is
 confined,  or  the  central office for the department of corrections and
 community supervision, whichever is applicable, shall  promptly  provide
 the trust fund account statement to the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL
 as required by this subdivision.
   4. Whenever any federal, state or local [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL obtains a judgment in connection with any action or proceeding which
 exceeds  the  amount  of  the  filing  fee,  paid in accordance with the
 provisions of this subdivision for commencing such action or proceeding,
 the  court  shall  award  to  the   prevailing   [inmate]   INCARCERATED
 INDIVIDUAL, as a taxable disbursement, the actual amount of any fee paid
 to commence the action or proceeding.
   5.  The provisions of this subdivision shall not apply to a proceeding
 commenced pursuant  to  article  seventy-eight  of  this  chapter  which
 alleges  a failure to correctly award or certify jail time credit due an
 [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL, in violation of section six  hundred-a
 of the correction law and section 70.30 of the penal law.

 nation  of  the rights of the parties in an action or special proceeding
 and may be either interlocutory or final. A judgment shall refer to, and
 state the result of, the verdict or decision, or recite the default upon
 which it is based. A judgment may direct  that  property  be  paid  into
 court  when  the  party  would not have the benefit or use or control of
 such property or where special  circumstances  make  it  desirable  that
 payment  or  delivery to the party entitled to it should be withheld. In
 any case where damages are awarded to an [inmate] INCARCERATED  INDIVID-
 UAL  serving  a  sentence  of  imprisonment with the state department of
 corrections and community supervision or to a  prisoner  confined  at  a
 local  correctional facility, the court shall give prompt written notice

 no payment be made to such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVIDUAL or  prisoner
 for  a  period  of  thirty days following the date of entry of the order
 containing such direction.

 the county in which the charge for which the [inmate] INCARCERATED INDI-
 VIDUAL is being detained is pending. Such [inmate] INCARCERATED INDIVID-
 UAL may also petition for a  writ  to  the  appellate  division  in  the
 department  in  which  he  is  detained or to any justice of the supreme
 court provided that the writ shall be made returnable before  a  justice
 of  the  supreme  court held in the county in which the charge for which
