Sec. 4.5. (a) Before the department may assign an offender to a minimum security classification and place the offender in a community transition program, the department shall notify:
(1) the offender and any victim of the offender's crime of the right to submit a written statement regarding the offender's assignment to the community transition program; and
(2) the offender of the right to submit a written statement objecting to the offender's placement in a community transition program;
to each court that sentenced the offender to a period of imprisonment that the offender is actively serving. If the name or address of a victim of the offender's crime changes after the offender is sentenced for the offense, and the offender's sentence may result in the offender's assignment to the community transition program, the victim is responsible for notifying the department of the name or address change.
(b) An offender or a victim of the offender's crime who wishes to submit a written statement under subsection (a)(1) must submit the statement to each court and the department not later than ten (10) working days after receiving notice from the department under subsection (a).
(c) An offender's written statement objecting to the offender's placement in a community transition program under subsection (a)(2) must be submitted to each court and the department:
(1) not later than ten (10) working days after receiving notice from the department under subsection (a); or
(2) before the offender is transported under section 7 of this chapter;
whichever occurs first.
