Short description: 
NOTIFY VICTIM-DEF RELEASE                                                  

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses  Act.   Provides      
   that  the office of the State's Attorney or the Prisoner Review Board,      
   unless notified in writing by the victim that he or she does not  wish      
   to be notified, shall automatically (instead of at the written request      
   of  the  victim) notify the victim when the defendant is released from      
   custody.                                                                    
          CORRECTONAL NOTE (Department of Corrections)                         
          There is no corrections population impact on the Department          
          because this legislation contains no new criminal sanctions or       
          enhanced penalties. There would be associated processing costs       
          for providing data more regularly, but the impact is expected        
          to be minimal.                                                       
          FISCAL NOTE (Prisoner Review Board)                                  
          The projected impact for House Bill 3676 is $593,213 per year.
