States varying interpretations of ‘revocation’ create confusion in the retaking process. Some states define revocation as appearing before the court, while others define it as the removal of community supervision to incarceration. This inconsistency leads to misunderstandings among states regarding the retaking process and expectations. After a forum discussion among DCAs, the consensus that defining the term was necessary.  By defining "revocation" in the Commission’s rules, the same standard can be applied across all member states.

I do not feel it provides enough clarity on the inconsistencies between states.

Remove course of action and just say define: means a sending state authority rescinding a supervised individual's supervision term and imposing a jail or prison sentence.
Comments
I do not see this definition clarifying the issues in interpretation we see across states. I think "course of action" is open to the same interpretation issues we have. For example, it is a common course of action for probation in my state to request a court rescind supervision but that does not equal a court actually rescinding the supervision term and imposing jail or prison. I've done a lot of training to try to prevent violations from being submitted just because my locals would initiate the process when the likelihood is the court would not revoke such a case.
