Review
(1) An offender may obtain administrative review of a
final Board action by sending a request for review to the Board within
forty-five (45) days after the mailing date on the Board’s final action on the
issue to be reviewed.
(2) The Board will reject an untimely request for
administrative review. Timeliness will be determined as follows for all Board
actions except Orders of Supervision:
(a) The request is physically received by the Board on
or before the 45th day after the mailing date on the Board’s final action on
the reviewed issue; or
(b) The request is delivered to the Board:
(A) by mail in an envelope bearing a United States
Postal Service (USPS) cancellation stamp, a USPS postage meter electronic
imprint, sticker, or stamp, a postage meter sticker or stamp from a “postage
evidencing system” that is regulated and approved for use by the United States
Postal Service pursuant to 39 CFRs. 501, et seq., that is dated on or
before the 45th day after the mailing date on the Board’s final action: a
postage evidencing system refers to postage by any method other than postage
stamps and includes (but is not limited to) postage meters; or
(B) by a parcel delivery service such as, or comparable
to, United Parcel Service, Federal Express, or Airborne Express, that indicates
the date on which the parcel delivery service received material for delivery to
the Board, which date is on or before the 45th day after the mailing date on
the Board’s final action.
(C) If the Board finds that the administrative review
request was not: (a) placed in the mail on the date indicated on the postage
meter sticker or stamp or (b) delivered to the parcel delivery service on the
date indicated on the parcel delivery service receipt, the delivery rules in
OAR 255-080-005(2)(b)(i) and (ii) shall not apply.
(c) In the case of an inmate, if there is no legible
USPS cancellation stamp or other postal mailing verification as defined in
paragraph (2)(b) above, the request will be treated as timely if the inmate
signed and dated the request and placed it in the institutional mailing system,
following all applicable Department of Corrections rules, on or before the 45th
day after the mailing date on the Board’s final action.
(3)(a) For Orders of Supervision (including Orders to
Continue/Amend Supervision), an offender must request administrative review
within forty-five (45) days after the date he or she received the order. The
Board will reject a request for administrative review of an Order of
Supervision as untimely unless:
(A) The request is physically received by the Board on
or before the 45th day after the date the offender received the order as
determined by offender’s signature on the order or other proof as stated in
paragraph (3)(b); or
(B) The request is delivered to the Board by mail in an
envelope bearing a United States Postal Service (USPS) cancellation stamp or
other postal mailing verification as defined in paragraph (2)(b) above, dated
on or before the 45th day after the date the offender received the order as
determined by offender’s signature on the order or other proof as stated in
paragraph (3)(b).
(b) The offender’s date of receipt may be established
by:
(A) The date the order was signed by the offender, or
(B) If the offender did not sign the order, the Board
will accept an electronic chronological entry or a note made by an employee of
the Department of Corrections or of the supervisory authority as evidence of
the date the offender received the Order of Supervision.
(4) If the Board or its designee finds that the request
is timely, and that it is consistent with the criteria as defined in rules
255-080-0010 and 255-080-0011, and meets the deadline requirements, the Board
will respond to the request using the procedures outlined in OAR 255-080-0012.
(5) When the Board or its designee grants review, the
Board shall send the offender a written response.
(a) If relief is denied, the response will explain the
reasons for the decision. When relief is denied, the prior decision stands.
(b) If relief is granted, the response will either
implement the relief, or specify the Board action to be taken implementing
relief.
(6) When the Board or its designee denies review, the
Board shall send the offender written notice of the specific reasons for
denial.
(a) When review is denied, the prior decision stands.
