Section XI-711 - Conditional Parole
A. When the committee determines that it would be in the best interest of the public and the offender, the committee may require successful completion of a specific rehabilitative program (i.e., substance abuse treatment, transitional work program, 100 hours of pre-release training, reentry program, attainment of high school equivalency (HSE) as a prerequisite to release on parole to ensure public safety and enhance the offenders opportunity for success.
1. For conditional parole decisions, the committee will generally require completion of programs that have been certified by the Department of Public Safety and Corrections or that are recommended by the Division of Probation and Parole.
2. Program completion should occur within six months from the parole decision. However, if the program is more than six months in duration, the offender may be allowed up to nine months after the parole decision to complete the specified program. In no event, however, may the physical release from custody on parole extend beyond nine months from the hearing date.
3. If the offender has not successfully completed the program in nine months from the hearing date, the committee shall rescind or reconsider his parole and schedule a subsequent hearing.
