Typical schedule 2 narcotics are prescription pills. What sort of paraphernalia was found for a drug that fits into this category? Was there any residual remaining drugs in the paraphernalia? Additionally, what is the criminal history of this individual, were there any other drug-related arrests or convictions?

It depends on what stage they are in, in their incarceration. If they are at the beginning before sentencing and in county jail, then yes they will be in the general population. If they have been sentenced and are in (or going to) state or federal prison, the administrative committee that determines custody, security and commitment status are mindful of the possible backlash against this type of inmate that they are segregated or sent somewhere where there are multiple sex

very few, that is a program for less than one-tenth of one percent of inmates with a minor non-violent offense with a very short sentence.

The problem we see in this situation is that your boyfriend is still incarcerated "after the time service". This tends to tell us that there is a re-sentencing hearing on the way for the old charge he was in violation of. This is problematic because the original sentencing judge will be making the new determination. This is usually not good because they view it like the offender didn't take the leniency to heart and normally will impose the original sentence.

Inmates in the TDCJ must serve 85% of their sentence. A 36 month sentence means that he will have to do 30.6 months. If he has done 24 already he is near the door. Normally the time spent in county counts as time off this sentence. We wonder if the sentence was different that you heard or if there are concurrent charges. Inmate movement from unit to unit is not unusual. It might be for something good or something bad,

We are dubious that the sentencing judge is going to hand you a sentence that is 5 - 10 years and allow you to leave for the UK shortly thereafter. Typically what happens is you are taken into custody to serve the time imposed and then upon completion of 85% of that sentence you are extradited. Since we are not lawyers answering these questions this might be something that we've never come across or heard about. If they allow your

When an inmate is sentenced to serve time, an Earned Release Supervision (ERS) date, a tentative release date and a maximum release date are configured. The earned release supervision date is based on an inmate serving a percentage of their sentence. For example, an inmate may be required to serve 85% of a sentence in a facility and is eligible to serve the remaining 15% on ERS. There are many factors that are considered in calculating an inmate’s ERS

The custody and security levels are set by the Department of Corrections or the Bureau of Prisons. Their determination cannot be challenged or appealed. Your inmate might have something in his past that has cultivated a profile that brought the administration to determine this level of custody. There could be an issue of available bed space. There is no "supposed to" in prison. Outside forces have no bearing on the way the inside runs it's facilities. You can always call

You can check with the Clerk of the Court where he was sentenced. Ask for a copy of the Judgement and Commitment Order signed by the judge. It will have the confinement order and any fine, restitution or court fees owed. If the jail is charging a daily incarceration fee like some jails are now doing, you will have to call them as find out what the rate is.

When sentences run concurrently, defendants serve all the sentences at the same time. When sentences run consecutively, defendants have to finish serving the sentence for one offense before they start serving the sentence for any other offense. If a defendant is convicted of a number of crimes that carry lengthy prison terms, the difference between consecutive and concurrent sentences can be tremendous. The same factors that judges tend to consider when deciding on the severity of a sentence (for
