Sentencing Reform Proposed some form of A measure to make fundamental changes to the federal criminal sentencing system has been intro- duced in the U.S. Senate and co). sponsored by Sen. Jake Gam The Sentencing Reform Act of 1983 contains provisions designed to minimize unwarranted disparity in federal criminal sentences hand- - ed down in the various federal courts throughout the nation. A seven-membsentencing commission is created by the measure which would be responsible er for developing guidelines for all Federal courts to use in determining an appropriate sentence in a particular case. "Sentences above or below the guidelines would be subject to appellate review, according to Gam. "And, determinate sentencing would apply to imprisonment so that those convicted would be required to serve the full term imposed by the court, except for a potential 10 deduction for satisfactory institutional behavior." "The purpose of the legislation is just plain common sense. We need , uniformity in our criminal justice system. In many cases there is no rationality in the sentencing of similar defendants by the same system of courts. In most cases the error is made in favor of the defendant at the expense of society, however, the opposite may also be true. As a result, I feel it is important that some equity and fairness in sentencing should be introduced. The seven member sentencing commission proposed by the legislation would be appointed by the President with advice and consent of the Senate with one member, the Attorney non-votin- g General. The commission is directed to draft guidelines for use by Federal judges in sentencing. Appropriate ranges of sentencing would be set for each federal offense. All guidelines proposed by the commission would be subject to congressional approval. The measure also calls for sentencing options. For example, probation, which is generally considered a deferred penalty, would become a penalty in itself. In the case of probation, restitution or community service would be imposed as a condition of the sentencing. "Fine levels under the bill would be greatly increased. Maximums for felonies could be as high as a quarter of a million dollars for individual defendants, and half a million dollars for organizational defendants, said the senator. "The most dramatic change imposed by this bill is the determining sentencing which flatly abolishes early releases on parole and provides that the sentence announced by the sentencing judge will be the sentence actually served by the defendants, with exception for the 10 'good percent credit for time. Plus, if the court is concerned about file adequacy of the sentence recommended by the commission, it may impose a period of super- vision after the sentence is When every minute counts, you get shopping convenience Your time is valuable and you want to waste it.
