No amendment prohibits the early release of convicts. For a while, civil rights legislation prohibited certain states from releasing convicts early. Thus, New York could sentence a person to prison for 8 to 12 years. In Florida, the sentence would be 8.5 to 10 years. Florida was prohibited for giving the same amount of time off for good behavior.
