Item 1

 
A.__The statute that the person is convicted of violating
expressly provides that the fine and imprisonment penalties it
authorizes may not be suspended, in which case the convicted
person must be sentenced to the imprisonment and required to
pay the fine authorized therein;

 
B.__The court sentences the person to a sentencing
alternative under section 1152 that includes a period of
probation; or

 
C.__The court finds that such a sentence would diminish the
gravity of the crime for which that person was convicted.

 
§1349-A.__Period of administrative release

 
1.__A person who has been convicted of a Class D or Class E
crime may be placed on administrative release for a period not to
exceed one year.

 
2.__During the period of administrative release and upon
application of a person placed on administrative release or of
the attorney for the State or upon the court's own motion, the
court may, after a hearing upon notice to the attorney for the
State and the person, modify the requirements imposed by the
court, add further requirements or release the person of any
requirement imposed by the court that, in the court's opinion,
imposes on the person an unreasonable burden.

 
3.__On application of the attorney for the State or of the
person placed on administrative release or on the court's own
motion, the court may terminate a period of administrative
release and discharge the convicted person at any time earlier
than that provided in the sentence made pursuant to subsection 1
if warranted by the conduct of such person.__The court may not
order a termination of the period of administrative release and
discharge upon the motion of the person placed on administrative
release unless notice of the motion is given to the attorney for
the State by the person placed on administrative release.__The
termination of the period of administrative release and discharge
relieves the person placed on administrative release of any
obligations imposed by the sentence of administrative release.

 
4.__A justice, in order to comply with section 1256,
subsection 8, may terminate a period of administrative release
that would delay commencement of a consecutive unsuspended term
of imprisonment.__A judge may terminate a period of
administrative release that would delay commencement of a
consecutive unsuspended term of imprisonment if that judge has
jurisdiction over each of the sentences involved.
