§299.630. Rule Violation

a)         Behavior that jeopardizes the safety of the residents, staff or others, or the security of the Program or unit, or presents significant management difficulties is considered a major rule violation.  Behavior that violates this Part or the Program or living unit rules, but does not place anyone in jeopardy, compromise the security of the Program or present significant management difficulties, is a minor rule violation.  When the classification is unclear, staff has the discretion to determine whether the rule violation is major or minor.

 

b)         A description of behaviors is included as Appendix A.

 

c)         Every resident is presumed to be responsible for any contraband or other property that is prohibited by this Part or by Program and living unit rules when that contraband or property is located on the resident's person, within his/her room, or within areas of housing or task assignment that are under his/her control.  If the resident produces evidence that convinces the treatment team that he/she did not commit the rule violation, the resident shall not be given a behavioral intervention.
