The time spent in county definitely counts towards the imposed sentence regardless if it is classified as a penitentiary or not. The transfer time has to do with bed space and the transfer unit's schedule for that area. If your inmate goes without incident reports and is considered a model inmate, they will consider him for work release near the end of the sentence, sometimes as a re-entry vehicle.

The value of the crime is the other major element along with gun enhancements or violence will contribute. If you feel comfortable laying out the case, we will give you our opinion.

Read moreFederal sentencing for a twelve month sentence is imposed as "a year and a day", which under the BOP rules makes the offender eligible for 15% good time. That means they will serve 10.2 months. Sentences over one year get good time, sentences less than a year do not. If the judge was not happy with the arrangement they could sentence her to straight 12 months and she would not be eligible for any good time and would have to

Read moreThe time served is normally 85% of the sentence imposed. First time offenders are treated the same as most other offenders, but in this case a probation violation might yield him some earlier release if he is a model inmate but do not rely on this suggestion. "Might" means if there is overcrowding and he is not getting incident reports, etc they could let him go before the 85% but we would treat this like a 10 1/2 month sentence and be surprised

Read moreHe will do 85% of 72 months or 61.2 months... about 5 years. This 15% is good time credited at the beginning of his bid, he can only screw up and lose that. If he is federal, there is a drug program that will shave off 12 months for successful completion. There are few other ways to gain an earlier release aside from snitching. The government rewards snitches with early release.

Read moreIn most situations, there is a built-in good time credit of 15%. On 66 years, 85% is 56.1 years. If his sentence was in a state court (not federal), there is a chance that the judge in the case added a parole provision. If that is in their Judgement and Commitment Order, then they might be eligible for the first parole board meeting at 1/3 of their sentence.
