The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend current statutes regarding the transfer of probation supervision. Specifically, it would remove the requirement that a probationer must request a courtesy transfer to another county at the time of sentencing or disposition. This change allows probationers greater flexibility in making transfer requests, as they would no longer be bound by the timing of their sentencing.

Additionally, the bill includes technical changes to the language of the statute, ensuring clarity and consistency. The current provisions regarding the conditions under which a probationer can request a transfer, including the need to provide proof of family caregiver obligations, employment, or housing, remain unchanged. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the process for probationers seeking to transfer their supervision to another county in Arizona.
