Section DOC 327.05 - Procedure for application and approval of classification
(1) An inmate may apply for minimum security/community residential confinement classification to his or her institution social worker or to a staff member designated for this purpose.
(2) The application shall include evidence that the inmate satisfies the eligibility requirements under s. DOC 327.04.
(3) The social worker or designated staff member shall review the inmate's application and shall report on the inmate's eligibility and the feasibility of the inmate's plan to the PRC of the state correctional institution where the inmate is assigned.
(4) The reclassification procedure shall be the procedure for changing a custody classification under s. DOC 302.17 and this chapter.
(5) The PRC's recommendation for minimum security/community residential confinement classification shall be by unanimous vote. If a vote is not unanimous, the case shall be treated in accordance with s. DOC 302.17(5).
(6) Reasons for the PRC's recommendation as to change in the inmate's security classification shall be given to the inmate in writing.
(7) If referred under sub. (5) or s. DOC 302.17(5), the classification chief shall approve or deny minimum security/community residential confinement classification.
(8) The inmate's eligibility under s. DOC 327.04, the criteria under s. DOC 302.02 and any other factors which relate to whether the inmate will be able to maintain himself or herself in a community residential confinement placement without engaging in criminal or disciplinary activity may be considered in making the decision under this section.
(9) The inmate shall be recommended for minimum security/community residential confinement classification by the PRC and approved for that classification by the classification chief before any further placement efforts are undertaken.
(10) An inmate may appeal a PRC denial of minimum security/community residential confinement classification to the classification chief within 10 days after receipt of notice of the denial.
(11) If the classification chief approves the minimum security/community residential confinement classification, the inmate shall be classified as minimum security/community residential confinement. An inmate with that classification has the appropriate status for CRC placement but is not assigned to a CRC placement unless he or she is approved for placement under s. DOC 327.06. Prior to approval for CRC placement, an inmate with a security classification of minimum security/community residential confinement may be assigned to any correctional institution.
