28 CFR § 2.79 Parole, Release, Supervision and Recommitment of Prisoners, Youth Offenders, and Juvenile Delinquents

§ 2.79 Good time forfeiture.

Current through Sep 21, 2026 · Read all of Part 2

Although a forfeiture of good time will not bar a prisoner from receiving a parole hearing, D.C. Code 24-404 permits the Commission to parole only those prisoners who have substantially observed the rules of the institution. Consequently, the Commission will consider a grant of parole for a prisoner with forfeited good time only after a thorough review of the circumstances underlying the disciplinary infraction(s). The Commission must be satisfied that the prisoner has served a period of imprisonment sufficient to outweigh the seriousness of the prisoner's misconduct.
