Statute overview

About this statute

This Law enters into force on the date it is published. The judge may be asked to place a prisoner in a differentiated disciplinary regime, and must decide on the request promptly, with a final decision due within 15 days after the Public Prosecutor and defense respond. This article says the law amends two existing laws to allow inclusion in maximum-security federal prisons and to address the differentiated disciplinary regime. The provision adds rules for federal prison placement, videoconference hearings, and a judge’s request for a bed reservation in a federal prison in the stated case.
