What if a person was originally sentenced to IP/RIP is revoked and then re-sentenced to a new sentence of IP/RIP?
If an offender was originally sentenced to a County Intermediate Punishment (CIP) sentence, and the sentence if revoked due to a violation, the court has all sentencing alternatives available. The court could resentence to a new term of CIP. Since this would be a resentencing, the sentencing guidelines would not apply (therefore, there would be no completed guideline form for the resentencing). Sentencing guidelines only apply to the original sentence imposed. (For additional clarification, contact the PA Commission on Sentencing at 717-772-4122).
