SECTION 5. IC 35-38-1-27, AS ADDED BY P.L.173-2006,
SECTION 22, IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE
JULY 1, 2013]: Sec. 27. (a) If a court imposes a sentence that does not
involve a commitment to the department of correction, the court shall
require a person:
(1)
convicted of an offense who is described in
IC 10-13-6-10;
IC 10-13-6-10(a); and
(2) who has not previously provided a DNA sample in accordance

establish the date, time, and location for the person to provide a DNA
sample. However, the supervising agency must require that the DNA
sample be provided not more than seven (7) days after sentencing. A
supervising agency's failure to obtain a DNA sample not more than
seven (7) days after sentencing does not permit a person required to
provide a DNA sample to challenge the requirement that the person
provide a DNA sample at a later date.
(d) A person's failure to provide a DNA sample is grounds for
revocation of the person's probation, community corrections placement,
or other conditional release.
