Summary
The proposed rule establishes a reduction of incarceration time (time cut) of at least four months for an individual who successfully completes the highest ranked case action plan priority. An additional four month time cut will be granted for completing a second case action plan program. Individuals with a life without parole sentence or who have been ordered to expire a life sentence by the Board are not eligible. The Board may order the forfeiture of earned time credits for a major disciplinary infraction. There may be circumstances when the previously ordered release date does not allow enough time for the full four or eight month time cut however the Board will approve as much of a time cut as is practical (see Utah Code Subsection 77-27-5.4(3)(a)).
