Cal. Code Regs. tit. 9 § 31500

Current through Register 2025 Notice Reg. No. 2, January 10, 2025

Section 31500 - Definitions

For the purpose of the regulations contained in this chapter, the following words shall have the following meanings:

Incorrigible: "Incorrigible" means the person is impervious to change, or displays willfully unalterable, or not reformable behavior. Observed behavior must extend over a period of time and be reasonably frequent; a single incident is not sufficient in itself to establish incorrigibility. Rather, a pattern of unacceptable behavior is required.

Incapable of Reformation: "Incapable of reformation" means that a person lacks the necessary ability, competence or motivation to change from criminal to noncriminal behavior.
