Section 10A:71-6.10 - Transfer of parole supervision to out-of-State jurisdiction

(a) The appropriate Board panel may permit a parolee to reside outside the State pursuant to the provisions of the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision, N.J.S.A. 2A:168-26et seq. (Interstate Compact), if the Board panel is satisfied that such change will not result in a substantial likelihood that the parolee will commit an offense, which would be a crime under the laws of this State.

(b) If an inmate has been granted parole and seeks to reside in another jurisdiction, the inmate shall notify institutional parole staff and complete the documents required by statutory provisions and the Interstate Compact. Institutional parole staff shall forward the documents required by statutory provisions and the Interstate Compact to the Office of Interstate Services.

(c) If a parolee seeks to transfer formal supervision of his or her case to another jurisdiction, the parolee shall notify his or her parole officer and complete the documents required by statutory or regulatory provisions and the Interstate Compact. The District Parole Office shall forward the documents required by statutory and regulatory provisions and the Interstate Compact to the Office of Interstate Services.

(d) Upon receipt of the material submitted pursuant to (b) and (c) above, the Office of Interstate Services shall review the inmate's or parolee's case and determine whether the inmate or parolee is a suitable candidate for the transfer of parole supervision to the designated out-of-State jurisdiction.

(e) If the Office of Interstate Services determines that the request for transfer of the supervision of the inmate's or parolee's case to an out-of-State jurisdiction complies with statutory and regulatory provisions and the Interstate Compact, the Office of Interstate Services shall forward the request for transfer of parole supervision to the designated out-of-State jurisdiction for investigation.

(f) Upon receipt of the completed community investigation by the out-of-State jurisdiction, the Office of Interstate Services shall notify institutional parole staff or the District Parole Office, as applicable, of the out-of-State jurisdiction's decision.

1. In the case of an inmate, the institutional parole staff shall notify the inmate of the out-of-State jurisdiction's decision. If the out-of-State jurisdiction has determined not to accept supervision of the parolee, the institutional parole staff shall interview the offender for an alternate plan.

2. In the case of a parolee, the assigned parole officer shall notify the parolee of the out-of-State jurisdiction's decision.

(g) If the out-of-State jurisdiction accepted supervision of the inmate or parolee, the Office of Interstate Services and/or the District Parole Office shall issue the necessary travel documents.
