28 C.F.R. § 811.4 Determination of the obligation to register and the length of registration.
Title 28 - Judicial Administration
(a) If the Superior Court finds that a person committed a registration offense, the Superior Court enters an order certifying that the person is a sex offender and that the person is subject to registration for a prescribed period of time (see §811.6). (b) If a court order has not been entered certifying that a person is a sex offender and that the person is subject to registration for a prescribed period of time, CSOSA makes those determinations. CSOSA also determines the notification classification if the Court has not done so. Facts on which CSOSA's determination may be based include: (1) The offense or offenses of conviction (or finding of not guilty by reason of insanity) or a determination that the person is a sexual psychopath; (2) For certain offenses, facts that may not be apparent on the face of the conviction (or finding of not guilty by reason of insanity), such as: (i) the age of the victim; (ii) whether force was involved; or (iii) whether the offense involved an undercover law enforcement officer who was believed to be an adult; (3) Prior criminal history; (4) For an offense committed in or prosecuted under the law of another jurisdiction, whether the offense involved conduct that was the same as or substantially similar to a District of Columbia registration offense; and (5) The amount of time that has elapsed as computed under §811.6.
