When is an "R" suffix applied during an I/M's reception?

If I/M is required to register per PC 290
If I/M has a clean history
If I/M is a first-time offender
If I/M received a positive psychological evaluation

The correct answer is: If I/M is required to register per PC 290

The "R" suffix is applied when an inmate or individual in custody is required to register under Penal Code 290, which pertains to individuals who have been convicted of certain sexual offenses. This registration is a regulatory measure aimed at monitoring those who pose a potential risk to public safety due to their prior criminal behavior. In this context, the other options would not trigger the application of the "R" suffix. For example, having a clean history, being a first-time offender, or receiving a positive psychological evaluation does not inherently mandate registration under PC 290. The suffix specifically denotes the necessity for the individual to register based on the nature of their prior offenses, thereby alerting correctional staff and monitoring authorities to the individual's history and the required compliance measures.
