Researching the Interstate Compact
Research Tips June 17th. 2009, 8:05amRecently, a patron who is on probation and is moving to California wanted to know more about something called the Interstate Compact. I was pleased to find a website (www.interstatecompact.org) all about this topic. The full name is the Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision (ICAOS). The website is chock full of information, including rules, a knowledge base, forms and advisory opinions. There is also information for each state that has adopted the Compact and a link to the enacting statute for the state. For Washington, that is RCW 9.94A.745.
