When an inmate's parole is revoked, the parole board must now set a new parole date within two years of the revocation, and must hold follow-up hearings at least every two years after that. The bill clarifies that the board doesn't need to hold these two-year hearings if the inmate receives an additional felony sentence or a suspended sentence with an initial parole date that extends beyond two years from the revocation.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
