How much of a federal sentence must be completed before parole?
Generally, before any parole may be granted, the minimum sentence, less any administrative good time, must be completed. I am not familiar with any Federal Parole system. As I understand it, Federal time is calculated on a one for one basis; that is, for every day of time served with no administrative disciplines, the inmate earns one day off his sentence. Therefore, for a ten year sentence, the inmate may only have to serve five years.
Can parole help you get your records clear?
Parole is a release from prison before the entire sentence has been served. While on parole, the parolee must meet certain conditions and requirements, which usually include obeying all laws, not associating with known felons or gang members, not using drugs and/or alcohol, seeking employment, and meeting regularly with a parole officer. If the parolee fails to meet these requirements, he can be returned to prison to serve out the remainder of his sentence. Parole has nothing to do with clearing records.
