(1) Prior to an inmate being released by conditional release, the Commission shall determine the terms and conditions of supervision.
(2) If an inmate has received a term of probation or community control supervision to be served after release from incarceration, and his/her offense was committed prior to July 1, 2001, he/she is not eligible for conditional release supervision. If the offense was committed on or after July 1, 2001, then conditional release supervision will defer to and run concurrent with the term of probation or community control supervision. Upon expiration of the court imposed supervision, the offender will be subject to the conditions of conditional release supervision until the maximum period of conditional release supervision expires.
(3) An inmate who has been convicted of a violation of Florida Statutes Chapter 794, or is found by the court to be a sexual predator in accordance with Florida Statute is subject to the maximum level of supervision provided, and that supervision shall continue through the end of the releasee’s original court-imposed sentence. The length of supervision must not exceed the maximum penalty imposed by the court.
(4) An inmate who is subject to conditional release supervision shall not be subject to provisional release supervision.
(5) All persons placed solely on conditional release supervision shall initially be subject to the standard conditions of conditional release upon their release from incarceration.

During your conditional release term, you shall submit and pay for urinalysis testing to identify drug usage and understand that your failure to make such payment or participate as defined under this condition of your conditional release will be considered grounds for revocation of conditional release by the Commission on Offender Review.

13. You shall execute and provide authorizations to release records to your Conditional Release Supervisor and the Commission so that your progress and participation in required programs can be monitored and documented.
(b) In addition to these standard conditions, the Commission shall require such special conditions of conditional release supervision as it deems necessary.
(6) There shall be no right of review of the terms and conditions of conditional release as determined by the Commission.
(7) A panel of no fewer than two Commissioners has authority to cause a review of the progress of a conditional releasee, or the Department of Corrections may make recommendations to the Commission whether to modify the reporting schedule or further modify the terms and conditions of conditional release. A panel of no fewer than two Commissioners shall discharge from conditional release, relieve from making further reports or permit the releasee to leave the country upon determining that such action is in the best interest of the conditional releasee and of society. Such cases shall be docketed before the panel of commissioners, if available, that initially set the terms and conditions of conditional release.
(8) A panel of no fewer than two (2) commissioners shall review the progress of each person who has been placed on conditional release after two years of supervision in the community and not less often than biennially thereafter.

(c) Annual reporting – one personal contact required every twelve (12) months.

(10) Such modification shall not impose new or different terms or conditions of conditional release more restrictive than was stated in the original certificate.
