Independent Correctional Adjudicators are responsible for conducting hearings to determine whether an incarcerated person breached a rule under the CAR and, if so, whether to impose a penalty and in what form. The disciplinary process and available penalties are outlined in the CAR. Adjudicators are also responsible for producing timely, clear, concise, and well-reasoned decisions based on the evidence presented, relevant legislation, and applicable legal principles. In almost all cases, Adjudicators provide written decisions within hours of the hearing.
