§ 9799.57.  Sentencing court information. The sentencing court shall inform offenders and sexually violent predators convicted on or after February 21, 2018, at the time of sentencing of the provisions of this subchapter. The court shall: (1)  Specifically inform the offender or sexually violent predator of the duty to register and provide the information required for each registration, including verification as required in section 9799.60(a) (relating to verification of residence). (2)  Specifically inform the offender or sexually violent predator of the duty to inform the Pennsylvania State Police within three business days if the offender or sexually violent predator changes residence or establishes an additional residence or residences, changes employer or employment location for a period of time that will exceed 14 days or for an aggregate period of time that will exceed 30 days during a calendar year or terminates employment or changes institution or location at which the person is enrolled as a student or terminates enrollment. In order to fulfill the requirements of this paragraph, the sentencing court shall specifically inform the offender or sexually violent predator of the duty to inform the Pennsylvania State Police of: (i)  the location of a temporary habitat or other temporary place of abode or dwelling, including a homeless shelter or park, where the individual is lodged; (ii)  the places the individual eats, frequents and engages in leisure activities and any planned destinations, including those outside this Commonwealth; and (iii)  the place the individual receives mail, including a post office box, if the individual fails to establish a residence as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition of "residence" in section 9799.53 (relating to definitions). (2.1)  Specifically inform the offender or sexually violent predator of the duty to inform the Pennsylvania State Police within three business days of becoming employed or enrolled as a student if the person has not previously provided that information to the Pennsylvania State Police. (3)  Specifically inform the offender or sexually violent predator of the duty to register with a new law enforcement agency if the offender or sexually violent predator moves to another state no later than three business days after establishing residence in another state. (4)  Order the fingerprints and photograph of the offender or sexually violent predator to be provided to the Pennsylvania State Police upon sentencing. (5)  Specifically inform the offender or sexually violent predator of the duty to register with the appropriate authorities in a state in which the offender or sexually violent predator is employed, carries on a vocation or is a student if the state requires the registration. (6)  Require the offender or sexually violent predator to read and sign a form stating that the duty to register under this subchapter has been explained. Where the offender or sexually violent predator is incapable of reading, the court shall certify the duty to register was explained to the offender or sexually violent predator and the offender or sexually violent predator indicated an understanding of the duty. (June 12, 2018, P.L.140, No.29, eff. imd.) 2018 Amendment. Act 29 reenacted and amended section 9799.57. Act 29 overlooked the addition of section 9799.57 by Act 10, but the amendments do not conflict in substance and have both been given effect in setting forth the text of section 9799.57.
