This bill revises laws related to probation conditions in Montana, specifically allowing probation and parole officers to remove conditions of supervision without requiring objections from the sentencing court, probationer, or county attorney, provided that the victim is notified of the change. The bill amends Section 46-18-203 to include provisions for the removal of conditions of supervision, stipulating that if no objections are raised within 14 days of notification, the condition is removed. Additionally, if the removed condition affects restitution or contact with the victim, the county attorney must make reasonable efforts to notify the victim.

The bill also outlines the process for modifying or adding conditions of probation, requiring the probation officer to report to the county attorney and allowing the court to grant modifications if there are no objections. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of victim notification throughout the process, ensuring that victims are informed of any changes that may impact them. Overall, the legislation aims to streamline the probation process while maintaining the rights and interests of victims.
