DISCIPLINE
§551.116 Discipline.
a. Staff shall require the pretrial inmate to abide by Bureau of Prisons rules on Inmate
Discipline (see 28 CFR part 541, subpart B), subject to the limitations of §551.106 of
this part.
b. Staff shall advise the court, through the U.S. Marshal, of repeated or serious disruptive
behavior by a pretrial inmate.
1. Employees will also advise the relevant U.S. Attorney’s Office of repeated or serious
disruptive behavior by a pretrial inmate.
2. When a pretrial inmate violates any Bureau rule on inmate discipline, not just repeated or
serious disruptive behavior, the United States Probation Office assigned to prepare the
Presentence Investigation Report must be advised.
Local procedures will be established with the USMS, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, and the
USPO regarding the preferred method of notification.
Copies of the notifications will be provided by the inmate’s Unit Team to the Designation
and Sentence Computation Center after the inmate is sentenced to facilitate the appropriate
institution designation.
