Summary

Staff proposed expanding robbery guideline recommendation ranges to match recent statutory changes; the Commission debated whether relabeling is policy or technical and moved to include the adjusted table in the annual report for General Assembly review.

Staff explained the proposed change to robbery recommendation ranges and why the table had to be modified to reflect statutory recodification. "So we had to modify the recommendation table because remember we eliminated section b," said the staff member presenting the report (S4).

A member moved to include the adjusted robbery table in the draft annual report and the Commission discussed phrasing and the potential fiscal or policy implications if the General Assembly took action. The staff said the revised recommendation will be included in the draft and formatted for publication; members then took a motion and vote to include it in the report that will be circulated to legislators.
