Section 3583(i)
Definition
A federal statute enacted in 1994 providing that if a warrant or summons for a supervised release violation is issued before the supervised release term expires, the court retains jurisdiction to conduct a revocation hearing even after the term has ended. It serves as a safety valve for late-in-term violations.
Examples
- •Because a warrant issued during Rico's original supervised release term based on her absconding, the sentencing court retained jurisdiction under Section 3583(i) to hold a revocation hearing after the term expired.
