The institution committee should complete its review within 30 days after receiving an inmate's review request. (b) If, after receiving the review decision of the designated institution committee, an inmate is not satisfied with the decision, the inmate may obtain further review of the custody classification Level 1–4 score by sending another completed CD1120aD form, together with any supporting documentation, and a copy of the institution committee's decision, to the functional unit manager or designee of the institution where the inmate is currently housed. The functional unit manager or designee must receive the review request within 30 calendar days of the institution committee's review decision.
