Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
Sec. 1. 17-A MRSA §1256, sub-§1, as amended by PL 1993, c. 522, §1, is further amended to read:
1. Other provisions of this section notwithstanding, when a person subject to an undischarged term of imprisonment is convicted of a violation of section 752-A, 755 or 757 or of any other crime against the person of a member of the staff of the institution in which the convicted person was imprisoned or of a violation of section 806 involving government property in the institution in which the convicted person was imprisoned or any other crime against government property in the institution in which the convicted person was imprisoned, or of an attempt to commit any of the crimes mentioned in this subsection, the sentence is not concurrent with the undischarged terms of imprisonment. The court may order that the undischarged terms of imprisonment be tolled and service of the nonconcurrent sentence commence immediately and the court shall so order if any undischarged term of imprisonment is a split sentence. No portion of the nonconcurrent sentence may be suspended. All sentences that the convicted person receives as a result of the crimes mentioned in this subsection must be nonconcurrent with all other sentences.
Effective September 18, 1999, unless otherwise indicated.
