1. (a) No incarcerated person shall be kept in disciplinary detention or confined to quarters more than ten (10) days. The chief disciplinary officer may shorten time spent in disciplinary detention or confined to quarters if the incarcerated person appears ready to conform and the facility disciplinary process will benefit by such an action. When the disciplinary detention or confined to quarters disposition has expired and continued restricted housing is deemed necessary, the incarcerated person shall be processed pursuant to section 3335.
2. (b) Time spent in restricted housing pending a disciplinary hearing shall normally be credited toward any disciplinary detention or confined to quarters sentence imposed. Reasons for not granting such credit shall be explained in the disposition section of the RVR.
3. (c) No incarcerated person shall be confined to quarters or otherwise deprived of exercise as a disciplinary disposition longer than ten days unless, in the opinion of the institution head, the incarcerated person poses such an extreme management problem or threat to the safety of others that longer confinement is necessary. The director's written approval is required for such extended confinement.
