Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 1081 -- Probation and Parole

Sponsor:  Lowe

This bill expands the duties of the Board of Probation and
Parole.  The board is required to review thoroughly the case
history of all offenders who have no possibility of parole.
Within 60 days of the review, the board will prepare a report to
the Governor with a recommendation to either grant or deny
executive clemency.  Offenders released will remain under the
supervision of the board for at least five years.

The bill establishes criteria to be used by the board when
conducting its reviews and making recommendations.  Offender
reviews and recommendations must be made every two years.
