What is indeterminate sentencing?

Indeterminate sentencing is a system in which an offender is sentenced to a minimum and maximum amount of time, e.g. 5 - 20 years. After the 5 year period the offender would be up for parole, and if the parole board sensed that the offender was rehabilitated he would be released.

How long do you have to do if you get 6 years and when would you be eligible for parolle?

Depends on the circumstances and whether parole was even an option at sentencing. The thumb rule is that parole would be likely after 3-4 years. But this varies from state to state and the history involved. Equally, a six year sentence could be just that...six years and no parole option. So it is hard to comment without details.


Can you finish parole without paying parole fees?

Yes. Your parole will expire regardless of owing fees. In Missouri after completion of parole term the State can intercept State income tax refund to apply towards fees. What else would happen if not discharged? A person will not be returned to prison for owing fees. That would cost the State more to incarcerate someone right?


How long would it be if you kill someone with a gun?

There are many factors involved in determining sentencing. If it was in self-defense, you might not even be charged. If it was pre-meditated, it could be the death sentence or life in prison without parole.


What happens if i fail my parole drug test?

Generally, violation of a condition of parole means you will have a hearing before the parole board or a special "hearing officer" appointed by the government, and if it is determined during that hearing that you did in fact violate your parole conditions your parole will be revoked and you will go back to prison to serve out the remainder of your term. You'll have a chance at the hearing to defend yourself, but it's kind of hard to argue with a positive drug test.If the parole violation is itself a crime (which it might be for a drug test), then you could ADDITIONALLY face a separate trial and possible sentencing for that, which would be added to your original sentence.


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.


When would a second degree felon be eligible for parole if sentenced 15yrs?

A person convicted of a felonious second degree crime with a fifteen year sentence would receive parole consideration at the same time a person convicted of a first or third or fourth degree felony would be considered. The degree of the crime is directly related to the motivation behind the commission of the crime; it has nothing to do with the amount of time elapsed before parole consideration.That being said, if the offender is incarcerated in a state with Truth in Sentencing laws, and the "15 years" is his minimum sentence, sadly he will serve fifteen years before being considered. This is so unless/until the state legislature reviews the sentencing laws of the state and decide to make changes. If the offender is incarcerated in a state that does not have Truth in Sentencing (Minimum time statues), and that state awards "Good Time" credit, he could do as little as seven and a half years, if the 15 is his minimum.


How much time must be served before parole for a twenty-five year sentence in Florida?

In Florida, inmates sentenced to twenty-five years are typically not eligible for parole. The state abolished parole in 1983, replacing it with a system of mandatory minimum sentencing and maximum release dates. Inmates may be eligible for gain time or early release through various programs, but their release will be determined by the Department of Corrections and not parole.
