357.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The purpose of this policy is to establish a procedure for the registration of sex offenders at the UCLA Police Department as required by Penal Code §§ 290 and 290.01. It is the policy of the UCLA Police Department to register all persons as required.
357.2 REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
All UCLA affiliated persons (as defined) who have been convicted of any crime listed in
Penal Code § 290 (c) are required to register within five (5) days with the Department as
required in:
(a) Penal Code § 290 (b) requires persons described in Penal Code § 290 (c) to register
for life while residing or located in California. A person who resides or is located as
a transient upon the UCLA campus must register with the Department. The person
is required to register within five (5) working days of coming into or changing his
residence or location within any city, county or campus. He/she is also required to
register within five (5) working days of his/her birthday each year for an annual
update. If the registrant is a transient located on the campus he/she must do the
update every thirty (30) days.
(b) Penal Code § 290.005 requires registration of persons convicted in other courts
including other state courts, federal and military courts to register in California if the
offense, had it been committed in California, would have been punishable as one or
more of the offenses described in Penal Code § 290 (c).
1. As long as the outofstate
conviction contains all the elements of a registrable
offense under Penal Code § 290, it is registrable in California. The label of the
offense is not dispositive.
(c) Pursuant to Penal Code § 290.005 (d), any person who would be required to register
while residing in the state of conviction for a sex offense committed in that state but it
does not apply to a person required to register in the state of conviction if the conviction
was for the equivalent of one of the following offenses, and the person is not subject
to Penal Code § 290 (c):
1. Indecent exposure, pursuant to Penal Code § 314.
2. Unlawful sexual intercourse, pursuant to Penal Code § 261.5.
3. Incest, pursuant to Penal Code § 285.
4. Sodomy, pursuant to Penal Code § 286, or oral copulation, pursuant to Penal
Code § 288a, provided that the offender notifies DOJ that the sodomy or oral
copulation conviction was for conduct between consenting adults, as described
in Penal Code § 290.019 and DOJ is able, upon the exercise of reasonable
diligence, to verify that fact.
Similarly, the fact that the offender is not required or has been relieved of the obligation, to
register in his/her home state does not dispose of his/her obligation to register in California.
If the sex offense is an outofstate
conviction, contact the California Attorney General’s
Office Department of Justice to determine if the offense is comparable to a registrable
California offense.

Policy Manual
Registration of Sex Offenders
Penal Code § 290.95 prohibits sex offender registrants whose sex crime was against a
victim under age 16 from working with minors as an employee or volunteer if the registrant
will be working with minors directly and in an unaccompanied setting on more than incidental
or occasional basis or has supervisory or disciplinary power over the child.
If the registrant’s crime was not against a victim under age 16 the registrant must notify the
employer or volunteer organization of his/her status as a registrant.
All registrants who are enrolled or employed by an University are required to register with
the campus Police per Penal Code §§ 290.009 and 290.01 (a)(1). This section requires
dual registration with the jurisdiction where the person lives and with the campus for the
following sex offenders that have a registration duty:
• Students enrolled at the campus.
• Full or parttime
employees, with or without compensation.
• Those carrying on a vocation at the campus.
The terms employed or carries on a vocation include employment whether or not it is
financially compensated, volunteered or performed for government or educational benefit.
The registrant must be employed, etc. over 14 days in a calendar year or more than an
aggregate of 30 days. Violation of Penal Code § 290.01 is a misdemeanor.
A student is enrolled for purposes of the registration law, on the day the first
quarter/semester of enrollment begins and must register within five (5) working
days of that date. Thereafter, if the student remains enrolled for the next regular semester
or quarter, he/she does not need to notify the Department of any status change. The
summer session does not count as a regular semester/quarter and if a registrant is present
spring semester/quarter and will return fall semester/quarter he/she does not have to come
in at the end of the spring term to notify the Department he/she is leaving for the summer
nor does he/she have to appear at the beginning of the fall term to reregister.
However, if the registrant does not reenroll
for a regular session during the school
year he/she must notify the Department within five (5) working days of the last day
of the semester/quarter that he/she is enrolled that he/she will be absent the following
semester/quarter. When the registrant reenrolls
he must reregister
with the Department
within five (5) working days of the first day of that new semester/quarter.
The registrant must bring proof of residence if he/she is living on campus such as his/her
contract for the residence halls.
The proof of residency is to consist of either a California Driver’s License, California ID card,
recent rent or utility receipt, printer personalized checks, other recent banking documents
showing the registrant’s name and address or any other reliable proof of residence.
If the registrant has no proof of residence he/she must be allowed to register but told to
return to the Department and furnish proof of residence within 30 days of the date he/she
registered. Failure to furnish such proof pursuant to Penal Code § 290.015 (a)(5) is a
misdemeanor violation of Penal Code § 290.018 (h).
