Swift and Certain Sanctions Act

Summary

The bill orders the commissioner of corrections to design a graduated‑sanctions grid that guides how courts and supervision agencies respond to technical violations of probation, parole, or supervised release. The grid must use risk‑assessment scores, rank violations by severity, and favor non‑custodial penalties unless they are clearly insufficient. It aims to reduce unnecessary revocations and jail time while keeping public safety in focus.
