Notification Of Requirement To Register As Sex Offender {CR-261}

AOC-CR-261 - NOTIFICATION OF REQUIREMENT TO REGISTER AS SEX OFFENDER. This North Carolina form is used to notify individuals convicted of certain sexual or violent offenses, or offenses against minors, of their requirement to register as a sex offender or similar status if they do not receive an active prison sentence. The form outlines the duration of registration, either 30 years with a potential reduction or lifetime, and details the conditions that must be followed, including notifying the local sheriff of changes in residence, employment, or enrollment at educational institutions. Failing to follow these conditions, such as by not registering or not updating the sheriff on required changes, can lead to a Class F felony. The form also collects personal details about the convicted person and information on their offense. The defendant must acknowledge receiving this notification, and copies are distributed to local law enforcement and the state’s Department of Public Safety.
