Rule 125-3-2-.01 - Responsibility

A correctional community, more than other communities, cannot be operated safely, efficiently, and for the best interests of both society and inmates unless the occupants conform to established standards of orderly behavior. It shall, therefore, be the responsibility of the Warden/Superintendent at each prison, assisted by all prison employees, to establish and maintain discipline by consistently requiring obedience, order and good conduct. Each Warden/Superintendent shall assure a fair, unbiased and orderly procedure for administering corrective disciplinary actions. The Disciplinary Action taken should be the minimum which, in the Warden's/ Superintendent's judgment for each specific case, will achieve the desired results.
