As part of this study, the Commission asked the Stanford Criminal Justice Center to analyze amendments to California's sentencing structure. The result of this effort is included in the Commission's report. The Stanford Criminal Justice Center has an ongoing Sentencing and Corrections Policy Project and in March 2007 published a report and recommendations based on The Stanford Executive Sessions on Sentencing and Corrections.
