                            AR RULE 1
                   REPORTING OF CRIMINAL CASES


     (a)  Report of Disposition. Within five court days after
          disposition by the superior court of a criminal charge,
          whether the disposition be a plea of guilty or by
          deferral or suspension of imposition of sentence, or a
          finding of guilty, or not guilty after trial, or by
          dismissal of the charge, the court clerk shall report
          such disposition to the Washington State Patrol Section
          on Identification on a disposition form approved by the
          Administrator for the Courts. When a sentence has been
          deferred or suspended, the report to the Section shall
          indicate the length of time over which such suspension
          or deferral is to be effective. At the conclusion of
          the time period for deferral or suspension of sentence,
          the court clerk shall forward an amended disposition
          form to the Section showing the actual disposition of the case.

     (b)  Report of Appeal. If an appeal is taken from the
          disposition made by the superior court, the court clerk
          shall, within five court days of the taking of the
          appeal, notify the Section on an amended disposition
          form. In the event that the result of any proceeding
          changes or otherwise makes inaccurate the information
          forwarded on the original disposition report, the court
          clerk shall prepare and forward to the Section a
          supplemental disposition report on a form approved by
          the Administrator for the Courts indicating thereon the
          information necessary to correct the current status of
          the disposition of charges against the subject
          maintained in the records of the Section.
