New Jersey A2610 allows for extended sentencing for repeat convictions of receiving stolen property.
New Jersey A2610 establishes that a person convicted of receiving stolen property under N.J.S.A.2C:20-7 may be sentenced to an extended term if they have two or more prior convictions for the same crime. The extended sentencing applies if the current crime was committed within 10 years of the defendant's last release from confinement or the most recent prior conviction. The court must hold a hearing to establish the grounds for extended sentencing, providing the defendant the right to hear and contest the evidence. This act takes effect immediately.
