What are the chances that if a case is run consecutively they will parole you in the minimum sentence to your next offense?
This, of course, depends upon the sentencing laws of your state, but consecutive sentences are given for a reason--more time will be served. For instance, if an offender is sentenced to three consecutive two to ten year sentences, that offender would have to serve at least two years before being considered for parole (in Truth in Sentencing states such as Michigan). At that point, if he is granted parole, it is for the first sentence only, and he would begin serving his second sentence. Two years later, the process would repeat, and then again for the third, totaling six years served before he is eventually released on parole. This will hold true, provided there are not specific laws in place in your state that permit all three cases to be reviewed for parole consideration simultaneously.
Specific to Michigan, it is unlikely a person so sentenced (three 2-10 years consecutives) would be seriously considered for parole for either of the first two sentences, and he would serve twenty-two years before being considered for any sort of conditional release.
