Section 42-8-73. Placement of offender with appropriate agency; scheduling for employed offenders; supervision; evaluation  


Latest version.
  •    The community service officer shall place an offender sentenced to community service as a condition of probation with an appropriate agency. The agency and work schedule shall be approved by the court. If the offender is employed at the time of sentencing or if the offender becomes employed after sentencing, the community service officer shall consider the offender's work schedule and, to the extent practicable, shall schedule the community service so that it will not conflict with the offender's work schedule. This shall not be construed as requiring the community service officer to alter scheduled community service based on changes in an offender's work schedule. The community service officer shall supervise the offender for the duration of the community service sentence. Upon completion of the community service sentence, the community service officer shall prepare a written report evaluating the offender's performance which will be used to determine if the conditions of probation have been satisfied.
