Revises provisions relating to offenders. (BDR 16-296)

Existing law requires the Department of Corrections to provide a woman who is incarcerated access to certain necessary medical and behavioral health care services, including an annual pelvic examination and mammography. (NRS 209.3817) Section 1 of this bill narrows the applicability of this requirement by requiring the Department to provide a woman who is incarcerated access to an annual pelvic examination and mammography only if: (1) the woman is over a certain age; or (2) a provider of health care recommends that the woman receive such services based solely on the personal or family medical history of the woman or certain other risk factors. Existing law contains the Uniform Law on Notarial Acts, which provides the manner in which notarial acts must be performed, including that a notarial officer determine, from personal knowledge or satisfactory evidence, that a person is the person whose signature is on a document. (NRS 240.161-240.169, 240.1655) Section 5 of this bill provides that a notarial officer has satisfactory evidence that a person who is incarcerated in the state prison is the person whose signature is on a document if the person is identified upon the basis of: (1) an inmate identification card that is issued by the Department in accordance with regulations adopted by the Department and includes the name and a picture of the person; or (2) a declaration signed by the person under penalty of perjury attesting to his or her identity. Existing law: (1) requires the Director of the Department to establish and administer a program of regimental discipline to be used as an alternative to incarceration; and (2) authorizes a court to order certain defendants to undergo the program as an alternative to incarceration. (NRS 176A.630, 176A.770, 176A.780, 209.356) Sections 4 and 6 of this bill repeal this requirement and authorization. Sections 2 and 3 of this bill make conforming changes by removing references to a provision repealed by section 6.
