Sec 13-914. Intensive probation; evaluation; sentence; criteria; limit; conditions

A. An adult probation officer shall prepare a presentence report for every offender who has either:

1. Been convicted of a felony and for whom the granting of probation is not prohibited by law.

2. Violated probation by commission of a technical violation that was not chargeable or indictable as a criminal offense.

B. The adult probation officer shall evaluate the needs of the offender and the offender's risk to the community, including the nature of the offense and criminal history of the offender. If the nature of the offense and the prior criminal history of the offender indicate that the offender should be included in an intensive probation program pursuant to supreme court guidelines for intensive probation, the adult probation officer may recommend to the court that the offender be granted intensive probation.

C. The court may suspend the imposition or execution of the sentence and grant the offender a period of intensive probation in accordance with this chapter. Except for sentences that are imposed pursuant to section 13-3601, the sentence is tentative to the extent that it may be altered or revoked pursuant to this chapter, but for all other purposes it is a final judgment of conviction. This subsection does not preclude the court from imposing a term of intensive probation pursuant to section 13-3601.

D. When granting intensive probation the court shall set forth on the record the factual and legal reasons in support of the sentence.

E. Intensive probation shall be conditioned on the offender:

1. Maintaining employment or maintaining full-time student status at a school subject to title 15 or title 32, chapter 30 and making progress deemed satisfactory to the probation officer, or both, or being involved in supervised job searches and community restitution work at least six days a week throughout the offender's term of intensive probation.

2. Paying restitution and probation fees of not less than seventy-five dollars unless, after determining the inability of the offender to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee. Probation fees shall be deposited in the adult probation services fund established by section 12-267. Any amount assessed pursuant to this paragraph shall be used to supplement monies used for the salaries of adult probation and surveillance officers and for support of programs and services of the superior court adult probation departments.

3. Establishing a residence at a place approved by the intensive probation team and not changing the offender's residence without the team's prior approval.

4. Remaining at the offender's place of residence at all times except to go to work, to attend school, to perform community restitution and as specifically allowed in each instance by the adult probation officer.

5. Allowing administration of drug and alcohol tests if requested by a member of the intensive probation team.

6. Performing not less than forty hours of community restitution each month. Full-time students may be exempted or required to perform fewer hours of community restitution. For good cause, the court may reduce the number of community restitution hours performed to not less than twenty hours each month.

7. Meeting any other conditions imposed by the court to meet the needs of the offender and limit the risks to the community, including participation in a program of community punishment authorized in title 12, chapter 2, article 11.
