37 Pa. Code § 75.1 - Application of presumptive ranges to convicted parole violators
(a) Presumptive
ranges of parole backtime to be served will be utilized if a parolee is
convicted of a new criminal offense while on parole and the Board orders
recommitment as a convicted parole violator after the appropriate revocation
hearing.
(b) The presumptive ranges
of parole backtime are intended to structure the discretion of the Board while
allowing for individual circumstances in terms of mitigation and aggravation to
be considered in the final decision.
(c) The Board may deviate from the
presumptive range or determine that recommitment should not occur, provided
written justification is given.
(d)
The presumptive ranges are intended to directly relate to the severity of the
crime for which the parolee has been convicted.
(e) The severity ranking of crimes listed in
§
75.2 (relating to presumptive
ranges for convicted parole violations) is not intended to be exhaustive, and
the most closely related crime category in terms of severity and the
presumptive range will be followed if the specific crime which resulted in
conviction is not contained within the listing.
