REPRESENTATIVE FRANK DERMODY,
ChairCommentary on Annex A Reasons for Revisions to Sentencing Guidelines
Pennsylvania's initial sentencing guidelines became effective June 22, 1982, and were subsequently amended on eight occasions, most recently in 1997. The current sentencing guidelines (5th Edition) became effective June 13, 1997 and apply to offenses committed on or after that date. The Commission herein proposes revisions to the 5th Edition sentencing guidelines for several reasons. First, during the past seven years, the General Assembly has enacted, amended or repealed more than 120 statutes that impact on the sentencing guidelines. In addition, the Commission has received requests from practitioners to change the sentence recommendations for a number of offenses, including violations of the Uniform Firearms Act, crimes of violence, weapons of mass destruction, controlled substances, and driving under the influence of alcohol or controlled substance. As a result, the Commission undertook a comprehensive review of all Offense Gravity Score (OGS) and Prior Record Score (PRS) point assignments for offenses covered under the sentencing guidelines. A second and related reason for the proposed revisions is that the Commission has received feedback that the 'totally concurrent' Prior Record Score policy, adopted in 1997, has been difficult to implement due to the complexity of the policy and missing or incomplete prior conviction and sentencing information. A third reason for the revisions is that the Commission is required, pursuant to Act 2002-229, to provide a sentencing enhancement for the offense of homicide by vehicle when the violation occurs in an active work zone. A fourth and final reason for the proposed revisions is that the Commission seeks to clarify several issues raised by the appellate courts and relating to the sentencing guidelines, such as the definition of school zone for purposes of the Youth/School Enhancement and the use of a previous court-martial in the Prior Record Score calculation.
Revisions to Section 303.1--Sentencing guidelines standards
The standards contained in this section identify offenses for which courts must consider the sentencing guidelines, and offenses to which the guidelines do not apply; describe the application of the various editions of the guidelines; and describe the requirements for reporting sentences to the Commission.
The Commission included in previous Sentencing Guidelines Implementation Manuals commentary regarding the merger of sentences, advising courts that the guidelines do not apply to convictions for lesser offenses which merge for sentencing purposes into greater offenses. Consistent with this long-standing policy, and in light of the recent enactment of a merger statute, 42 Pa.C.S. § 9765, the Commission has proposed including a specific reference to merger of sentences in Section 303.1(a).
As required by statute, 42 Pa.C.S. § 9721(b), all courts must consider the guidelines when imposing sentences for felonies and misdemeanors. While this requirement to consider the guidelines has consistently been interpreted by the Commission to apply to the minor judiciary, the Commission has only required the completion and submission of guideline sentence forms, as required by 42 Pa.C.S. § 2153(a)(14), from courts of record. The Commission has proposed several changes to Section 303.1(c) to clarify this policy. Additionally, the current guidelines contain an inconsistency regarding the recording and reporting of reasons for aggravated or mitigated sentences. Section 303.13(c) requires the recording of such reasons, but Section 303.1(c) does not. This requirement has been added to Section 303.1(c). Finally, in January 2002 the Commission launched SGS Web, a JNET-based sentencing application that allows authorized users to prepare sentencing guidelines and submit completed forms electronically using the secure JNET infrastructure. The Commission notified all courts in February 2004 of a requirement that SGS Web be used to report all sentences beginning in January 2005. The Commission has proposed including language to this effect in Section 303.1(d) and (e).
Revisions to Section 303.2--Procedures for determining the guideline sentence
The standards contained in this section identify procedures for determining the guideline sentence. During the development of the 5th Edition guidelines in 1997, the Commission adopted the term 'judicial proceeding' to describe a hearing in which all offenses for which an offender has been convicted are pending before the court for sentencing at the same time. While this term was used in describing the procedure for completing a guideline sentence form, it was not defined in the text of the guidelines. The Commission has proposed including this definition in Section 303.2(b).
Revisions to Section 303.3--Offense Gravity Score
The standards contained in this section relate to the assignment of the Offense Gravity Score (OGS), which measures the seriousness of the current conviction offense. The OGS is the primary determinant of the sentencing guidelines recommendation. For controlled substances, the OGS assignment is generally based on the type and quantity or weight of the controlled substance. The 4th Edition (1994) sentencing guidelines introduced an exception for fraudulent prescriptions, in which the number of prescription pills rather than the weight of the pills would be used to determine the OGS assignment. The concern was that since only a small amount of the controlled substance was contained in each pill, the weight of the pills would over-estimate the seriousness of the offense. The Commission has proposed expanding this exception to two other sections of the Drug Act: Delivery by practitioner, 35 P. S. § 780-113(a)(14), and Possession with intent to deliver, 35 P. S. § 780-113(a)(30), but limiting the prescription pills exception in all three sections to narcotics.
Revisions to Sections 303.4 through 303.8--Prior Record Score
The standards contained in this section relate to Prior Record Score (PRS) policies, including the PRS categories, identification of previous adjudications and convictions included in the calculation of the PRS, and the relative weight of those previous adjudications and convictions in determining the PRS category. The PRS reflects both the number and severity of previous adjudications and convictions. The PRS is not a separate punishment, but rather a reflection of the seriousness of previous offenses.
In the 4th Edition (1994) sentencing guidelines, the Commission established REVOC (Repeat Violent Offender Category) as the highest PRS category, for offenders with two or more previous convictions or adjudications for crimes of violence and whose current conviction is for an offense with an OGS of 9 or greater. REVOC was viewed as the sentencing guidelines equivalent of the 'three strikes' mandatory sentencing provision, since REVOC provided a recommendation for the longest minimum sentence permitted by statute. Under the 4th Edition sentencing guidelines, most offenses with an OGS of 9 or greater were considered crimes of violence. As the current and proposed sentencing guidelines assign an OGS of 9 or greater to offenses not considered crimes of violence, there is concern that the original focus of REVOC is being lost. The Commission has proposed modifying the definition of REVOC in Section 303.4(a)(1) to limit its application to offenders with a current conviction and two or more previous convictions or adjudications for crimes of violence.
In the 5th Edition (1997) sentencing guidelines, the Commission moved from transaction-based sentencing guidelines to offense-based sentencing guidelines. Under transaction-based guidelines, only the most serious offense of a previous transaction was included in the calculation of the PRS, and the PRS was only used to determine the sentence recommendation for the most serious offense of the current transaction. Under the offense-based guidelines, the presumption is that all previous convictions are included in the calculation of the PRS, and that the PRS is used to determine the sentence recommendation for each current offense. The exception to this 'everything counts' policy is a totally concurrent sentence. A conviction is considered totally concurrent if the sentence imposed did not increase the term of probation, intermediate punishment, partial or total confinement of any sentence. The Commission has received numerous requests to simplify this policy, particularly since implementation is often hampered by missing or incomplete prior conviction and sentencing information, and further complicated by multi-jurisdiction sentencing and credit for time served. The Commission has proposed a streamlined policy in Section 303.5 that requires the most serious offense of each judicial proceeding to be included in the calculation of the PRS, and includes in the calculation any other offense from the judicial proceeding for which a consecutive sentence of confinement within the proceeding has been imposed. Consistent with the current policy, the PRS continues to be used to determine the sentence recommendation for each current offense. The Commission has also clarified the policy related to un-sentenced convictions, and specifically permits the court to consider at sentencing previous convictions or dispositions not counted in the calculation of the PRS.
In Section 303.7 the Commission has proposed several new PRS point assignments, based on expansion of the definition of crimes of violence, 42 Pa.C.S. § 9714(g), and the increase in the classification of certain offenses. Four point offenses are limited to: murder; attempt, solicitation or conspiracy to commit murder; completed crimes of violence, excluding inchoates; and ethnic intimidation to any Felony 1 offense. As a result of the comprehensive changes to the DUI statute, and the related re-classification of DUI offenses, the Commission has proposed assigning all but a first DUI one point in the PRS.
In Section 303.8 the Commission has proposed including in the text of the sentencing guidelines information previously contained in the Sentencing Guidelines Implementation Manual Commentary. This includes a clarification that a court-martial for a criminal offense is considered a federal conviction; and that contempt of court, violations of PFA orders, and nolle prossed or dismissed charges are excluded from the PRS.
Revisions to Sections 303.9 through 303.14--Guideline sentence recommendations
The standards contained in this section relate to guideline sentence recommendations, including general provisions, enhancements for possession or use of a deadly weapon, enhancements for distribution of a controlled substance to a minor or in a school zone, sentencing levels and programs, aggravated and mitigated circumstances, and economic sanctions.
In Section 303.10 the Commission has proposed a narrowing of the circumstances for which the deadly weapon/used enhancement would apply. The enhancement would continue to apply if an offender used a deadly weapon to threaten or injure another individual, but not if it was otherwise used in the furtherance of the crime. Neither deadly weapon enhancement would apply to a theft when the property stolen was a firearm. The Commission also has proposed a refinement of the definition of 'school' in the Youth/School Enhancement to reflect that the enhancement applies when the distribution occurs within 1000 feet of the real property on which the school is located. Both of these proposals are in response to recent decisions by the Pennsylvania Superior Court.
In Section 303.11 the Commission has proposed expansion of the definitions of sentencing levels 3 and 4 to include offenses for which a mandatory minimum sentence to a county facility apply and for which an intermediate punishment sentence is authorized. While some offenses, such as DUI, may be assigned to lower sentencing levels due to the grade of the offense and the OGS assignment, the mandatory sentencing provision and the intermediate punishment eligibility are consistent with the general description of levels 3 and 4: standard range requires incarceration or restrictive intermediate punishment but in all cases permits incarceration in a county facility.
In Section 303.12 the Commission has proposed language consistent with statute.
In Section 303.13 the Commission has proposed removal of an aggravated range for OGS 14, as the standard range includes the statutory limit.
In Section 303.14 the Commission has proposed expansion of the previous fines and restitution section in recognition of the increased attention in statute to a broad range of economic sanctions, including fines, costs, fees and restitution.
Revisions to Section 303.15--Offense listing
As noted previously, during the past seven years the General Assembly has enacted, amended or repealed more than 120 statutes that impact on the sentencing guidelines. In addition, the Commission has received requests from practitioners to change the sentence recommendations for a number of offenses. As a result, the Commission undertook a comprehensive review of all Offense Gravity Score (OGS) and Prior Record Score (PRS) point assignments for offenses covered under the sentencing guidelines. The proposed assignments are found in Section 303.15. Bold type is used to identify all proposed changes and additions; brackets are used to identify deletions.
Revisions to Sections 303.16 through 303.18--Matrices
The Basic and Deadly Weapon Enhancement matrices provide specific sentence recommendations based on a combination of OGS and PRS. The sentence recommendations, contained in the cells of the matrix, are presented as a range of months, and reflect the recommended minimum period of incarceration. In Pennsylvania, courts are required to impose a minimum and maximum term for an incarceration sentence; generally, the minimum term cannot exceed one-half of the maximum term. As a result, the longest minimum sentence (i.e., statutory limit or SL), and therefore the longest recommendation under the sentencing guidelines, is one-half the statutory maximum. For a Felony 1 offense with a statutory maximum of 20 years, the statutory limit and upper boundary of the sentencing guidelines is 10 years, or 120 months.
During the 1995 Special Session on Crime, the General Assembly increased the statutory maximum for certain Felony 1 offenses beyond the traditional 20 years up to 40 years. The 5th Edition sentencing guidelines responded by creating an OGS 14 with an upper limit of 240 months, reflecting a statutory limit of 20 years. Recently, the General Assembly has increased the statutory maximum for certain Felony 1 offenses to life imprisonment. In response, the Commission has proposed the assignment of an OGS 14 to each of these offenses. Further, the Commission has proposed increasing the upper limit for OGS 14 from 240 months to the statutory limit (SL) in recognition of the differing classifications of offenses assigned an OGS 14. Finally, as noted previously, the Commission has proposed removal of an aggravated range for OGS 14, as the standard range includes the statutory limit.
Annex A TITLE 204. JUDICIAL SYSTEM GENERAL PROVISIONS PART VIII. CRIMINAL SENTENCING CHAPTER 303. SENTENCING GUIDELINES § 303.1. Sentencing guidelines standards.
(a) The court shall consider the sentencing guidelines in determining the appropriate sentence for offenders convicted of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to, felonies and misdemeanors. Where crimes merge for sentencing purposes, the court shall consider the sentencing guidelines only on the higher graded offense.
(b) The sentencing guidelines do not apply to sentences imposed as a result of the following: accelerated rehabilitative disposition; disposition in lieu of trial; direct or indirect contempt of court; violations of protection from abuse orders; revocation of probation, intermediate punishment or parole.
(c) The sentencing guidelines shall apply to all offenses committed on or after the effective date of the guidelines. Amendments to the guidelines shall apply to all offenses committed on or after the date the amendment becomes part of the guidelines.
(1) When there are current multiple convictions for offenses that overlap two sets of guidelines, the former guidelines shall apply to offenses that occur prior to the effective date of the amendment and the later guidelines shall apply to offenses that occur on or after the effective date of the amendment. If the specific dates of the offenses cannot be determined, then the later guidelines shall apply to all offenses.
(2) The initial sentencing guidelines went into effect on July 22, 1982 and applied to all crimes committed on or after that date. Amendments to the guidelines went into effect in June 1983, January 1986 and June 1986. On October 7, 1987 the Pennsylvania Supreme Court invalidated the guidelines due to a procedural error that occurred in 1981 when the legislature rejected the first set of guidelines. New guidelines were drafted and became effective on April, 25, 1988. Amendments to the guidelines went into effect August 9, 1991 and December 20, 1991. [A revised] Revised sets of guidelines became effective August 12, 1994 and June 13, 1997.
(d) In every case in which [the] a court of record imposes a sentence for a felony or misdemeanor, the court shall make as a part of the record, and disclose in open court at the time of sentencing, a statement of the reason or reasons for the sentence imposed. In every case where [the] a court of record imposes an aggravated or mitigated sentence, or a sentence outside the sentencing guidelines, [the court shall provide a contemporaneous written statement of] the reason or reasons for the deviation from the standard range of the guidelines[. These reasons] shall be recorded on the Guideline Sentence Form, a copy of which [is forwarded] shall be electronically transmitted to the Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing in the manner described in § 303.1(e).
(e) [A Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing Guideline Sentence Form shall be completed at the court's direction and shall be made a part of the record no later than 30 days after the date of each sentencing and a copy shall be forwarded to the Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing.] Unless otherwise provided by the Commission, the JNET-based Sentencing Guidelines Software Web application (SGS Web) shall be used at the court's direction to prepare all guideline-required sentencing information. The completed Guideline Sentence Form shall be made a part of the record and the information electronically submitted to the Commission via SGS Web no later than 30 days after the date of sentencing.
§ 303.2. Procedure for determining the guideline sentence.
(a) For each conviction offense of a judicial proceeding, t[T]he procedure for determining the guideline sentence shall be as follows:
(1) Determine the Offense Gravity Score as described in § 303.3 and § 303.15.
(2) Determine the Prior Record Score as described in § 303.4--§ 303.8.
(3) Determine the guideline sentence recommendation as described in § 303.9--§ 303.14, including Deadly Weapon Enhancement and Youth/School Enhancement (§ 303.10), and aggravating or mitigating circumstances (§ 303.13).
(b) Judicial proceeding. A judicial proceeding is a proceeding in which all offenses for which the offender has been convicted are pending before the court for sentencing at the same time. A judicial proceeding may include multiple offenses and transactions.
§ 303.3. Offense Gravity Score--general.
(a) An Offense Gravity Score is given for each offense. The Offense Gravity Scores are located in § 303.15.
(b) Subcategorized offenses. Certain offenses are subcategorized and scored by the Commission according to the particular circumstances of the offense. The court determines which Offense Gravity Score, located in § 303.15, applies. These offenses are designated by an asterisk [*].
(c) Inchoate offenses. Inchoate offenses are scored as follows:
(1) Convictions for attempt, solicitation, or conspiracy to commit a Felony 1 offense receive an Offense Gravity Score of one point less than the offense attempted, solicited, or which was the object of the conspiracy.
(2) Convictions for attempt, solicitation, or conspiracy to commit any offense which is not a Felony 1 offense, receive the Offense Gravity Score of the offense attempted, solicited, or which was the object of the conspiracy.
(3) Convictions for attempt, solicitation, or conspiracy to commit any offense under The Controlled Substance, Drug, Device and Cosmetic Act (35 P. S. § 780-101-- § 780-144) receive the Offense Gravity Score of the offense attempted, solicited, or which was the object of the conspiracy.
(4) Exception for inchoate murder convictions. Convictions for attempt, solicitation, or conspiracy to commit murder receive the Offense Gravity Score of 14 if there is serious bodily injury and 13 if there is no serious bodily injury.
(d) Ethnic Intimidation. Convictions for Ethnic Intimidation (18 Pa. C.S. § 2710) receive an Offense Gravity Score that is one point higher than the offense which was the object of the Ethnic Intimidation. When the object offense is murder of the third degree, a conviction for Ethnic Intimidation receives the highest Offense Gravity Score.
(e) Violations of The Controlled Substance, Drug, Device and Cosmetic Act (35 P. S. §§ 780-101--780-144). If any mixture or compound contains any detectable amount of a controlled substance, the entire amount of the mixture or compound shall be deemed to be composed of the controlled substance. If a mixture or compound contains a detectable amount of more than one controlled substance, the mixture or compound shall be deemed to be composed entirely of the controlled substance which has the highest Offense Gravity Score.
(1) Exception for prescription pills. The exception to subsection (e) above is for violations of 35 P. S. § 780-113 (a)(12) [(relating to fraudulent prescriptions)], (a)(14), and (a)(30) when narcotic prescription pills of Schedule II are involved. For such violations it is the number of pills rather than the amount of the controlled substance which is considered in determining the Offense Gravity Score. (See § 303.15.)
(f) Omnibus Offense Gravity Scores. The Omnibus Offense Gravity Score is applied when the offense is not otherwise listed in § 303.15, or when the grade of an offense listed in § 303.15 has changed, unless application of this section would result in a lower Offense Gravity Score for an increased grading of the offense. The Omnibus Offense Gravity Scores are provided below and in the listing at § 303.15:
Felony 1 8 Felony 2 7 Felony 3 5 Felonies not subclassified by the
General Assembly5 Misdemeanor 1 3 Misdemeanor 2 2 Misdemeanor 3 1 Misdemeanors not subclassified by the
General Assembly1 § 303.4. Prior Record Score--categories.
(a) Prior Record Score categories. Determination of the correct Prior Record Score category under this section is based on the type and number of prior convictions (§ 303.5) and prior juvenile adjudications (§ 303.6). There are eight Prior Record Score categories: Repeat Violent Offender [REVOC], Repeat Felony 1 and Felony 2 Offender [RFEL], and point-based categories of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
(1) Repeat Violent Offender Category [REVOC]. Offenders who have two or more previous convictions or adjudications for four point offenses (§ 303.7(a)(1) and § 303.15) and whose current conviction [carries an Offense Gravity Score of 9 or higher] is a completed crime of violence or an inchoate to murder shall be classified in the Repeat Violent Offender Category.
(2) Repeat Felony 1 and Felony 2 Offender Category [RFEL]. Offenders who have previous convictions or adjudications for Felony 1 and/or Felony 2 offenses which total 6 or more in the prior record, and who do not fall within the Repeat Violent Offender Category, shall be classified in the repeat Felony 1 and Felony 2 Offender Category.
(3) Point-based Categories (0-5). Offenders who do not fall into the REVOC or RFEL categories shall be classified in a Point-based Category. The Prior Record Score shall be the sum of the points accrued based on previous convictions or adjudications, up to a maximum of five points.
§ 303.5. Prior Record Score--prior convictions.
[(a) All prior convictions shall be counted in the Prior Record Score, except certain prior convictions from sentences described in (b).
(b) When a sentence for a prior conviction was imposed totally concurrent to another sentence, or was served totally concurrent to another sentence, only the conviction with the greatest number of points under § 303.7 shall be counted.
(c) Totally concurrent. A conviction is considered totally concurrent if the sentence imposed did not increase the term of probation, intermediate punishment, partial or total confinement of any sentence.]
(a) If there is a single offense in the judicial proceeding, that offense shall be counted in the calculation of the Prior Record Score.
(b) If there are multiple offenses in the judicial proceeding:
(1) The most serious offense of the judicial proceeding shall be counted in the calculation of the Prior Record Score.
(2) Any offense for which a sentence of partial or total confinement is imposed consecutive to a sentence for another offense in the judicial proceeding shall be counted in the calculation of the Prior Record Score.
(c) Un-sentenced convictions. If no sentence has been imposed on an offense, the offense shall not be counted in the calculation of the Prior Record Score.
(d) Adequacy of the Prior Record Score. The court may consider at sentencing previous convictions or dispositions not counted in the calculation of the Prior Record Score, including but not limited to the following:
(1) A conviction for which no sentence has been imposed.
(2) Lapsed prior adjudications.
(3) Excluded offenses described in § 303.8(g).
(4) Previous convictions assigned no points in the calculation of the Prior Record Score.
(5) Previous convictions in excess of the maximum used in the calculation of the Prior Record Score.
§ 303.6. Prior Record Score--prior juvenile adjudications.
(a) Juvenile adjudication criteria. Prior juvenile adjudications are counted in the Prior Record Score when the following criteria are met:
(1) The juvenile offense occurred on or after the offender's 14th birthday, and
(2) There was an express finding by the juvenile court that the adjudication was for a felony or one of the Misdemeanor 1 offenses listed in § 303.7(a)(4).
(b) Only the most serious juvenile adjudication of each prior disposition is counted in the Prior Record Score. No other prior juvenile adjudication shall be counted in the Prior Record Score.
(c) Lapsing of juvenile adjudications. Prior juvenile adjudications for four point offenses listed in § 303.7(a)(1) shall always be included in the Prior Record Score, provided the criteria in subsection (a) above are met:
(1) All other juvenile adjudications not identified above in subsection (a) lapse and shall not be counted in the Prior Record Score if the offender was 28 years of age or older at the time the current offense was committed.
(2) Nothing in this section shall prevent the court from considering lapsed prior adjudications at the time of sentencing.
§ 303.7. Prior Record Score--guideline points scoring.
(a) Scoring of prior convictions and adjudications is provided below and in the listing of offenses at § 303.15:
(1) Four Point Offenses. Four points are added for each prior conviction or adjudication for the following offenses:

(i) One point is added if the offender was previously convicted of two or three misdemeanors.
(ii) Two points are added if the offender was previously convicted of four to six misdemeanors.
(iii) Three points are added if the offender was previously convicted of seven or more misdemeanors.
§ 303.8. Prior Record Score--miscellaneous.
(a) Prior convictions and adjudications of delinquency. A prior conviction means ''previously convicted'' as defined in 42 Pa. C.S. § 2154(a)(2). A prior adjudication of delinquency means ''previously adjudicated delinquent'' as defined in 42 Pa. C.S. § 2154(a)(2). In order for an offense to be considered in the Prior Record Score, both the commission of and conviction for the previous offense must occur before the commission of the current offense.
(b) Inchoate offenses. Unless otherwise provided in § 303.7 or § 303.15, a prior conviction or adjudication of delinquency for criminal attempt, criminal solicitation or criminal conspiracy is scored under § 303.7 based upon the grade of the inchoate offense.
(c) Ethnic Intimidation. Unless otherwise provided in § 303.7 or § 303.15, a prior conviction or adjudication of delinquency for Ethnic Intimidation is scored under § 303.7 based upon the grade of the Ethnic Intimidation.
(d) Former Pennsylvania offenses.
(1) A prior conviction or adjudication of delinquency under former Pennsylvania law is scored as a conviction for the current equivalent Pennsylvania offense.
(2) When there is no current equivalent Pennsylvania offense, prior convictions or adjudications of delinquency are scored under § 303.7 based on the grade of the offense. When a prior conviction or adjudication of delinquency was for a felony, but the grade of the felony is unknown, it shall be treated as a Felony 3. When a prior conviction was for a misdemeanor, but the grade of the misdemeanor is unknown, it shall be treated as other misdemeanors. When it cannot be determined if the prior conviction was a felony, one point misdemeanors, or other misdemeanors, it shall be treated as other misdemeanors. When a prior conviction is for a crime which has a summary grade, and the grade of the conviction is unknown, the prior conviction shall not be counted in the Prior Record Score.
(e) A prior conviction or adjudication of delinquency for an offense which was misgraded is scored as a conviction for the current equivalent Pennsylvania offense.
(f) Out-of-state, federal or foreign offenses.
(1) An out-of-state, federal or foreign conviction or adjudication of delinquency is scored as a conviction for the current equivalent Pennsylvania offense.
(2) A court-martial for a criminal offense under the Uniform Code of Military Justice is considered a federal conviction and is scored as a conviction for the current equivalent Pennsylvania offense. Non-judicial punishments or administrative actions (e.g., Article 15, Article 134) which are not convictions shall not be counted in the Prior Record Score.
(3) When there is no current equivalent Pennsylvania offense, determine the current equivalent Pennsylvania grade of the offense based on the maximum sentence permitted, and then apply § 303.8(d)(2).
(g) Excluded offenses, charges and convictions. The following types of offenses, charges and convictions shall not be scored in the Prior Record Score:
(1) Summary offenses, violations of local ordinances, direct or indirect contempt of court, violation of protection from abuse orders, and dispositions under Pa.R.Crim.P. Rules [175--186] 300--320 (relating to accelerated rehabilitative disposition), 35 P. S. § 780-117 (relating to probation without verdict) or 35 P. S. § 780-118 (relating to disposition in lieu of trial or criminal punishment)[, shall not be used in computing the Prior Record Score].
(2) A charge which is nolle prossed, dismissed, or on which a demurrer is sustained.
(3) Any prior conviction which contributed to an increase in the grade of a subsequent conviction, except for prior Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Controlled Substance convictions. [shall not be used in computing the Prior Record Score.]
§ 303.9. Guideline sentence recommendation: general.
(a) Basic sentence recommendations. Guideline sentence recommendations are based on the Offense Gravity Score and Prior Record Score. In most cases, the sentence recommendations are found in the Basic Sentencing Matrix (§ 303.16). The Basic Sentencing Matrix specifies a range of sentences (i.e.-standard range) that shall be considered by the court for each combination of Offense Gravity Score [OGS] and Prior Record Score [PRS].
(b) Deadly Weapon Enhancement sentence recommendations. If the court determines that an offender possessed a deadly weapon pursuant to § 303.10(a)(1), the court shall instead consider the DWE/Possessed Matrix (§ 303.17). If the court determines that an offender used a deadly weapon pursuant to § 303.10(a)(2), the court shall instead consider the DWE/Used Matrix (§ 303.18). Both enhanced matrices specify a range of sentences (i.e.-standard range) that shall be considered by the court for each combination of Offense Gravity Score [OGS] and Prior Record Score [PRS].
(c) Youth/School Enhancement sentence recommendations. If the court determines that an offender violated the drug act pursuant to § 303.10(b), 12 months shall be added to the lower limit of the standard range of the applicable sentencing matrix and 36 months shall be added to the upper limit of the standard range of the applicable sentencing matrix. The range of sentences (i.e.--standard range) shall be consid-ered by the court for each combination of Offense Gravity Score [OGS] and Prior Record Score [PRS].
(d) Aggravated and mitigated sentence recommendations. To determine the aggravated and mitigated sentence recommendations, apply § 303.13.
(e) Numeric sentence recommendations. All numbers in sentence recommendations suggest months of minimum confinement pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. § 9755(b) (partial confinement) and § 9756(b) (total confinement).
(f) Alphabetic sentence recommendations. RS in the sentence recommendation, an abbreviation for Restorative Sanctions, suggests use of the least restrictive, non-confinement sentencing alternatives described in 42 Pa.C.S. § 9753 (determination of guilt without further penalty), § 9754 (order of probation) and § 9758 (fine), and include § 9763 (intermediate punishment) when limited to restorative sanction programs (see § 303.12(a)(5)). 42 Pa.C.S.§ 9721(c) (mandatory restitution) is also included in RS. No specific recommendations are provided for periods of supervision or amounts of fines for these non-confinement sentencing alternatives. RIP in the sentence recommendation, an abbreviation for Restrictive Intermediate Punishments, suggests use of Restrictive Intermediate Punishments pursuant to § 303.12(a)(4).
(g) When the guideline sentence recommendation exceeds that permitted by 18 Pa.C.S. § 1103 and § 1104 (relating to sentence of imprisonment for felony and misdemeanor) and 42 Pa.C.S. § 9755(b) and § 9756(b) (relating to sentence of partial and total confinement) or other applicable statute setting the maximum term of confinement, then the statutory limit is the longest guideline sentence recommendation. For the purposes of the guidelines, the statutory limit is the longest legal minimum sentence, which is one-half the maximum allowed by law.
(h) Mandatory sentences. The court has no authority to impose a sentence less than that required by a mandatory minimum provision established in statute. When the guideline range is lower than that required by a mandatory sentencing statute, the mandatory minimum requirement supersedes the sentence recommendation. When the sentence recommendation is higher than that required by a mandatory sentencing statute, the court shall consider the guideline sentence recommendation.
(i) Driving Under the Influence. The court shall consider the sentence recommendations pursuant to this section (§ 303.9) for an offender convicted under 75 Pa.C.S. [§ 3731] 3802 (Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Controlled Substance). The court may use a [q]Qualified Restrictive [i]Intermediate [p]Punishment pursuant to § 303.12(a)(6) to satisfy the mandatory minimum requirement.
§ 303.10. Guideline sentence recommendations: enhancements.
(a) Deadly Weapon Enhancement.
(1) When the court determines that the offender possessed a deadly weapon during the commission of the current conviction offense, the court shall consider the DWE/Possessed Matrix (§ 303.17). An offender has possessed a deadly weapon if any of the following were on the offender's person or within his immediate physical control:
(i) Any firearm, (as defined in 42 Pa.C.S.§ 9712) whether loaded or unloaded, or
(ii) Any dangerous weapon (as defined in 18 Pa.C.S.§ 913), or
(iii) Any device, implement, or instrumentality designed as a weapon or capable of producing death or serious bodily injury where the court determines that the defendant intended to use the weapon to threaten or injure another individual.
(2) When the court determines that the offender used a deadly weapon during the commission of the current conviction offense, the court shall consider the DWE/Used Matrix (§ 303.18). An offender has used a deadly weapon if any of the following were employed by the offender in a way that threatened or injured another individual [or in the furtherance of the crime]:
(i) Any firearm, (as defined in 42 Pa.C.S.§ 9712) whether loaded or unloaded, or
(ii) Any dangerous weapon (as defined in 18 Pa.C.S.§ 913), or
(iii) Any device, implement, or instrumentality capable of producing death or serious bodily injury.
(3) There shall be no Deadly Weapon Enhancement for the following offenses:
(i) Possessing Instruments of Crime
(ii) Prohibited Offensive Weapons
(iii) Possession of Weapon on School Property
(iv) Possession of Firearm or Other Dangerous Weapon in Court Facility
(v) Simple Assault (18 Pa.C.S. § 2701(a)(2))
(vi) Aggravated Assault (18 Pa.C.S. § 2702(a)(4))
(vii) Theft when property stolen is a firearm (18 Pa.C.S. Chapter 39)
(viii) Violations of the Pennsylvania Uniform Firearms Act
(ix) Any other offense for which possession of a deadly weapon is an element of the statutory definition.
(4) The Deadly Weapon Enhancement shall apply to each conviction offense for which a deadly weapon is possessed or used.
(b) Youth/School Enhancement.
(1) When the court determines that the offender either distributed a controlled substance to a person or persons under the age of 18 in violation of 35 P. S. § 780-114, or manufactured, delivered or possessed with intent to deliver a controlled substance within 1000 feet of the real property on which is located a public or private elementary or secondary school, the court shall consider the range of sentences described in § 303.9(c).
(2) The Youth/School Enhancement only applies to violations of 35 P. S. § 780-113(a)(14) and (a)(30).
(3) The Youth/School Enhancement shall apply to each violation which meets the criteria above.
§ 303.11. Guideline sentence recommendation: sentencing levels.
(a) Purpose of sentence. In writing the sentencing guidelines, the Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing strives to provide a benchmark for the judges of Pennsylvania. The sentencing guidelines provide sanctions proportionate to the severity of the crime and the severity of the offender's prior conviction record. This establishes a sentencing system with a primary focus on retribution, but one in which the recommendations allow for the fulfillment of other sentencing purposes including rehabilitation, deterrence, and incapacitation. To facilitate consideration of sentencing options consistent with the intent of the sentencing guidelines, the Commission has established five sentencing levels. Each level targets certain types of offenders, and describes ranges of sentencing options available to the court.
(b) Sentencing levels. The sentencing level is based on the standard range of the sentencing recommendation. Refer to § 303.9 to determine which sentence recommendation (i.e.-Basic, Deadly Weapon Enhancement or Youth/School Enhancement) applies. The descriptions of the five sentencing levels are as follows:
(1) Level 1--Level 1 provides sentence recommendations for the least serious offenders with no more than one prior misdemeanor conviction, such that the standard range is limited to Restorative Sanctions [RS]. The primary purpose of this level is to provide the minimal control necessary to fulfill court-ordered obligations. The following sentencing option is available:
Restorative Sanctions (§ 303.9(f))
(2) Level 2--Level 2 provides sentence recommendations for generally non-violent offenders and those with numerous less serious prior convictions, such that the standard range requires a county sentence but permits both incarceration and non-confinement. The standard range is defined as having an upper limit of less than 12 months and a lower limit of Restorative Sanctions [RS]. The primary purposes of this level are control over the offender and restitution to victims. Treatment is recommended for drug dependent offenders. The following sentencing options are available:
Total confinement in a county facility under a county sentence (see 61 P. S. § 331.17).
Partial confinement in a county facility
Restrictive Intermediate Punishments (see § 303.12(a) for eligibility criteria)
Restorative Sanctions (§ 303.9(f))
(3) Level 3--Level 3 provides sentence recommendations for serious offenders and those with numerous prior convictions, such that the standard range requires incarceration or a Restrictive Intermediate Punishment [RIP], but in all case permits a county sentence. The standard range is defined as having a lower limit of incarceration of less than 12 months. Included in Level 3 are those offenses for which a mandatory minimum sentence of less than 12 months applies and for which an intermediate punishment sentence is authorized by statute. The primary purposes of this level are retribution and control over the offender. If eligible, treatment is recommended for drug dependent offenders in lieu of incarceration. The following sentencing options are available:
Total confinement in a state facility.
Total confinement in a state facility, with participation in the State Motivational Boot Camp (see § 303.12(b) for eligibility criteria)
Total confinement in a county facility under a state or county sentence (see 61 P. S. § 331.17).
Partial confinement in a county facility.
Restrictive Intermediate Punishment (see § 303.12(a) for eligibility criteria)
(4) Level 4--Level 4 provides sentence recommendations for very serious offenders and those with numerous prior convictions, such that the standard range requires state incarceration but permits it to be served in a county facility. The standard range is defined as having a lower limit of incarceration of greater than 12 months but less than 30 months, but limited to offenses with an Offense Gravity Score of less than 9. Included in Level 4 are those offenses for which a mandatory minimum sentence of less than 30 months applies and for which an intermediate punishment sentence is authorized by statute. The primary purposes of the sentencing options at this level are punishment and incapacitation. However, it is recognized that certain offenders at this level are permitted to serve a sentence of total confinement in a county facility, and some non-violent offenders may benefit from drug and alcohol treatment. The following sentencing options are available:
Total confinement in a state facility.
Total confinement in a state facility, with participation in the State Motivational Boot Camp (see § 303.12(b) for eligibility criteria)
Total confinement in a county facility as a state offender. (see 61 P. S. § 331.17).
Restrictive Intermediate Punishment (see § 303.12.(a) for eligibility criteria)
(5) Level 5--Level 5 provides sentence recommendations for the most violent offenders and those with major drug convictions, such that the conviction has an Offense Gravity Score of 9 or greater or the standard range requires state incarceration in a state facility. The standard range in such a case is defined as having a lower limit of 30 months or greater. The primary purposes of the sentencing options at this level are punishment commensurate with the seriousness of the criminal behavior and incapacitation to protect the public. The following sentencing options are available:
Total confinement in a state facility.
Total confinement in a state facility, with participation in the State Motivational Boot Camp (see § 303.12(b) for eligibility criteria)
§ 303.12. Guideline sentence recommendations: sentencing programs.
(a) County intermediate punishment program.
(1) Eligibility.
(i) The following regulations and statutes govern operation of and eligibility for county intermediate punishment programs:
37 Pa.Code § 451.1 et seq.
42 Pa.C.S. § 9729, § 9763, [and] § 9773 and Chapter 98.
[61 P. S. § 1101--§ 1114.]
204 Pa.Code § 303.8 and § 303.9.(ii) Sentence recommendations which include an option of Restrictive Intermediate Punishments for certain offenders are designated as shaded cells in the guideline matrices.
(2) The county intermediate punishment plan provides a mechanism to advise the court of the extent and availability of services and programs authorized in the county. This plan includes information on the appropriate classification and use of county programs based on program-specific requirements.
(3) Intermediate punishments classifications. In order to incorporate intermediate punishment programs into the sentencing levels, the Commission has classified intermediate punishment programs as Restrictive Intermediate Punishments (RIP) and restorative sanction programs. Additionally, specific intermediate punishment programs have been identified in legislation (42 Pa.C.S. §§ 9763(c) and 9804(b)) and regulation (37 Pa. Code § 451.52) as authorized sentences for conviction under 75 Pa.C.S. [3731(e)] 3802 (relating to Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Controlled Substance); the Commission has classified these programs as [q]Qualified Restrictive Intermediate Punishments.
(4) Restrictive Intermediate Punishments (RIP). Restrictive Intermediate Punishments are defined as programs that provide for strict supervision of the offender. [Restrictive Intermediate Punishments may be imposed only if the court has been granted sentencing authority by the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S.§ 9729).] The county intermediate punishment board is required to develop assessment and evaluation procedures to assure the appropriate targeting of offenders. All programs must meet the minimum standards provided in the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency regulations (37 Pa.Code Chapter 451) for intermediate punishments.
(i) Restrictive Intermediate Punishments (RIP) either:
(A) house the offender full or part time; or
(B) significantly restrict the offender's movement and monitor the offender's compliance with the program(s); or
(C) involve a combination of programs that meet the standards set forth above.
(ii) An offender under consideration for Restrictive Intermediate Punishments at Level 4 or Level 3 shall have a diagnostic assessment of dependency on alcohol or other drugs conducted by one of the following: the Pennsylvania Department of Health's [Office] Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Programs ([O]BDAP) or a designee; the county authority on drugs and alcohol or a designee; or clinical personnel of a facility licensed by the [Office] Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Programs.
(iii) An offender assessed to be dependent shall be evaluated for purposes of a treatment recommendation by one of the above listed assessors. The evaluation shall take into account the level of motivation of the offender. If sentenced to a Restrictive Intermediate Punishment, the sentence shall be consistent with the level of care and length of stay prescribed in the treatment recommendation, regardless of the standard range sentencing recommendation.
(iv) An offender assessed as not in need of drug or alcohol treatment may be placed in any approved Restrictive Intermediate Punishment program. Each day of participation in a Restrictive Intermediate Punishment program or combination of programs shall be considered the equivalent of one day of total confinement for guideline sentence recommendations.
(v) The court may impose a [q]Qualified Restrictive Intermediate Punishment in lieu of incarceration for [any] certain convictions under 75 Pa.C.S. § [3731] 3802 (relating to Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Controlled Substance).
(5) Restorative sanction programs. Restorative sanction programs are the least restrictive, non-confinement intermediate punishments. Restorative sanction programs are generally used in conjunction with Restrictive Intermediate Punishments as the level of supervision is reduced, but may also be used as separate sanctions under any of the non-confinement sentencing alternatives provided in the statute (see § 303.9(f)).
(i) Restorative sanction programs:
(A) are the least restrictive in terms of constraint of offender's liberties;
(B) do not involve the housing of the offender (either full or part time); and
(C) focus on restoring the victim to pre-offense status.
(6) Qualified Restrictive Intermediate Punishments. In accordance with 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 9763(c), 9804(b) and 37 Pa. Code § 451[.52 (relating to sentencing restrictions for driving under the influence convictions)], [q]Qualified Restrictive Intermediate Punishment programs may be used to satisfy the mandatory minimum sentencing requirements of certain convictions under 75 Pa.C.S. § [3731] 3802.
(i) Unless otherwise provided in statute, Qualified Restrictive Intermediate Punishment programs include: A. [residential inpatient drug and alcohol programs or residential rehabilitative center programs; or] if the defendant is determined to be in need of drug and alcohol treatment, a sentence to intermediate punishment shall include participation in drug and alcohol treatment under 75 Pa.C.S. § 3815(c), and may be combined with:
1. house arrest with electronic surveillance; or
2. a partial confinement program such as work release, a work camp or a halfway facility.
B. house arrest and electronic monitoring combined with drug and alcohol treatment if the defendant is determined not to be in need of drug and alcohol treatment, a sentence to intermediate punishment may only include:
1. house arrest with electronic surveillance; or
2. partial confinement programs such as work release, a work camp or a halfway facility; or
3. any combination of Qualified Restrictive Intermediate Punishment programs.
(b) State Motivational Boot Camp.
(1) Eligibility.
(i) The following statute governs operation of and eligibility for the State Motivational Boot Camp: 61 P. S. § 1121--§ 1129
(ii) Sentence recommendations which include boot camp eligible offenders are designated by the letters BC in the cells of the Basic Sentencing Matrix (§ 303.16).
(2) The court shall indicate on the offender's commitment order and the Guideline Sentence Form if the offender is authorized as eligible for the boot camp program. The Department of Corrections makes the final determination as to whether the offender will be accepted into the boot camp program.
§ 303.13. Guideline sentence recommendations: aggravated and mitigated circumstances.
(a) When the court determines that an aggravating circumstance(s) is present, it may impose an aggravated sentence as follows:
(1) For the Offense Gravity Scores of 9, 10, 11, 12[,] and 13 [and 14] the court may impose a sentence that is up to 12 months longer than the upper limit of the standard range.
(2) For the Offense Gravity Score of 8, the court may impose a sentence that is up to 9 months longer than the upper limit of the standard range.
(3) For the Offense Gravity Scores of 6 and 7, the court may impose a sentence that is up to 6 months longer than the upper limit of the standard range.
(4) For the Offense Gravity Scores of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, the court may impose a sentence that is up to 3 months longer than the upper limit of the standard range.
(5) When the standard range is Restorative Sanctions (RS), the aggravated sentence recommendation is RIP-3.
(b) When the court determines that a mitigating circumstance(s) is present, it may impose a mitigated sentence as follows:
(1) For the Offense Gravity Scores of 9, 10, 11, 12,13, and 14 the court may impose a sentence that is up to 12 months shorter than the lower limit of the standard range.
(2) For the Offense Gravity Score of 8, the court may impose a sentence that is up to 9 months shorter than the lower limit of the standard range.
(3) For the Offense Gravity Scores of 6 and 7, the court may impose a sentence that is up to 6 months shorter than the lower limit of the standard range.
(4) For the Offense Gravity Scores of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, the court may impose a sentence that is up to 3 months shorter than the lower limit of the standard range.
(5) When the bottom of the standard range is less than or equal to 3 months of incarceration, the lower limit of the mitigated sentence recommendation is Restorative Sanctions (RS).
(6) In no case where a Deadly Weapon Enhancement is applied may the mitigated sentence recommendation be lower than 3 months.
(c) When the court imposes an aggravated or mitigated sentence, it shall state the reasons on the record and on the Guideline Sentence Form, a copy of which is [forwarded] electronically transmitted to the Commission on Sentencing in the manner described in § 303.1(e).
§ 303.14. Guideline sentence recommendations--[fines and restitution] economic sanctions.
(a) Fines [and restitution].
(1) Fines [and restitution, as provided by law,] may be added to any guideline sentence[.], as authorized by law. Relevant statutes include but are not limited to:
