Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024

				  than one rule or the same rule more than once during an incident may receive a
				  permissible sanction for each violation. After a finding of guilt for a new
				  violation, a previously suspended sentence may be imposed as well as a new
				  sentence. State and federal criminal laws apply to offenders. In addition to
				  being sanctioned by institutional authorities, offenders may also be prosecuted
