Section 3324 - Conduct Reportable to the Releasing Authority

(a) Rules of the Board of Parole Hearings and those of the Narcotic Addict Evaluation Authority require that specific acts of incarcerated person conduct be reported to the appropriate releasing authority when the incarcerated person has an established or anticipated release date on an indeterminate term or period of confinement. The applicable Board of Parole Hearings and Narcotic Addict Evaluation Authority rules are set forth in Divisions 2 and 5 of Title 15, California Administrative Code, and are hereby incorporated by reference in the rules of the Secretary of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

(b) At the discretion of the appropriate releasing authority, a hearing for reconsideration of release may be held in conjunction with a disciplinary hearing for misconduct that is also reportable to the releasing authority.

(c) Releasing authority members and representatives may sit in the factfinding and disposition phase of a disciplinary hearing held in conjunction with a hearing by the releasing authority for release reconsideration. Releasing authority members and representatives will not act as factfinders or decision makers in the disposition of disciplinary charges against an incarcerated person. However, the members and representatives of the releasing authority may participate in the factfinding phase of the disciplinary hearing as deemed necessary to bring out information which will aid in determining appropriate action relative to the incarcerated person's scheduled or anticipated release.

(d) The scheduling of a combined departmental disciplinary hearing and a releasing authority hearing for reconsideration of an established or anticipated release date on an indeterminate term or period of confinement does not stay the time limits for a disciplinary hearing in which good time credit may be denied on a determinate term of imprisonment.
