If the sentence is life without parole, then the term is forever and no release will be granted. If the life term is with the possibility of parole, then the Parole Board will, for offenses that carry a mandatory minimum of 85% of the sentence, consider parole after approximately 25 years.

A minimum of 18 years must be served before eligible for parole. Anyone released on parole with a life sentence is on parole supervision for life. They may be returned to prison for violations of parole conditions for the remainder of their lives to serve more time. If violated they may or may not be re-released.
