This depends on whether the state has a parole system and if the defendant is eligible for it. For a 15 year sentence, if a state has a parole system, the defendant could be required to serve at least five years, perhaps even more if, for example, the defendant was convicted of violent crime. Each state that has a parole system dictates the minimum time a person must serve before being eligible for parole.

What is ''parole'' in court?
The same as out of Court. Someone who is released from prison before they serve their entire sentence is on "parole" for the remainder of their sentence. For example if someone sits in jail for 6 months on a Felony Stealing charge and gets sentenced to 5 years then they go to prison. The 6 months they sat in jail counts towards their sentence. So if they do 2yrs in prison then get released on parole they are on parole the remainder of their sentence or 2.5 years.
