A probationer who objects to a supervising court services officer’s determination that the probationer is ineligible for the award of earned discharge credit may seek review of that decision with the chief court services officer for the judicial circuit. Review of the denial of earned discharge credit may be made by filing a notice of review with the chief court services officer within 10 days from receiving notice of the denial. In the event the supervising court services officer is the chief court services officer, the probationer may request review of such determination by a chief court services officer from another judicial circuit which will be assigned by the director of trial court services. The decision made by the chief court services officer concerning the award of earned discharge credits is final.
