62050.9 BPT Transfer Requests

  • Inmate Diagnosis and Treatment

    • The BPT may request that the Director transfer an inmate when its review of a case determines the transfer is advisable for further diagnosis or treatment. The Department shall comply with the request where diagnostic facilities are, or become, available unless such a transfer violates the Department’s policy or would threaten institutional security.

    • The BPT shall be advised of any determination that precludes such a transfer at the earliest reasonable time. It is the responsibility of the C&PRClassification & Parole Representative to advise the BPT if the request cannot be fulfilled.

  • CSRClassification Staff Representative/DRBDepartmental Review Board Review

    • If a CSRClassification Staff Representative determines that the BPT request would violate departmental policy or present a security risk, they shall indicate this determination on the CDC Form 128-G, General Chrono, and request that the institution refer the case to the DRBDepartmental Review Board. The C&PRClassification & Parole Representative shall advise the BPT if the request would violate departmental policy or present a security risk. If the BPT reaffirms its decision, a DRBDepartmental Review Board referral shall be processed.

    • If the DRBDepartmental Review Board determines the request is appropriate, a copy of its decision shall be sent to the referring institution. If the request is determined to be inappropriate, then that decision, including rationale, shall be noted on a CDC Form 128-G, and a copy shall be sent to the referring institution and BPT Chairman.
