  2. (b)

    If the court determines that the person to be sentenced is not lawfully present in the United States, the court shall be authorized to make inquiry into whether the person to be sentenced would be legally subject to deportation from the United States while serving a probated sentence.#

      Consider the interest of the state in securing certain and complete execution of its judicial sentences in criminal and quasi-criminal cases;#

History

Code 1981, § 17-10-1.3, enacted by Ga. L. 2007, p. 34, § 1/SB 23; Ga. L. 2008, p. 324, § 17/SB 455.

Editor's notes

Ga. L. 2007, p. 34, § 3/SB 23, not codified by the General Assembly, provides: ‘‘The General Assembly finds that this Act states factors for consideration in discretionary decisionmaking processes within the criminal justice system. The General Assembly finds that such factors could have been considered prior to or without the enactment of this Act. Accordingly, it is the intention of the General Assembly that this Act may be applied with respect to offenses committed prior to its effective date as well as offenses committed on or after its effective date. However, if there should be a judicial determination that retrospective application is prohibited, it is the intention of the General Assembly that retrospective application should be severable.’’ This Act became effective May 11, 2007.
