Title 20 - CORRECTIONS, CRIMINAL JUSTICE, AND LAW ENFORCEMENT
Part 2535 - PERSONAL PROPERTY
Section 2535.100 - Procedure for Temporary Absence
Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024
If a temporary absence is expected to be one day or less, the committed youth's personal property need not be inventoried and packed, unless the committed youth so requests. The following procedures shall be implemented when the committed youth so requests, the absence is expected to exceed one day, or it becomes known that the absence will exceed one day.
a) Before a temporary absence of more than one day or when the committed youth requests, the committed youth shall, in the presence of an employee, inventory and pack personal property in the containers provided.
b) In an emergency or when it becomes known that an anticipated absence will exceed one day, it shall be the responsibility of the shift supervisor to ensure that, before the end of the shift, an accurate inventory, preferably with a witness, is made of the committed youth's personal property; that it is packed in an approved container and sealed with a copy of the inventory enclosed; and that it is stored in a designated secure area.
c) At the time of repossession, the sealed container must be opened in the presence of an employee, and the contents listed on the committed youth's inventory slip checked against the one sealed in the box. Any discrepancies shall be noted, and the employee and committed youth shall sign the inventory report. A copy of the inventory shall be maintained by the youth center in the personal property files and in the committed youth's master record file.
d) For purposes of this Section, personal property of a committed youth assigned to a single room may be locked in the room rather than placed in a container. All other provisions of this Section shall apply.
