This bill amends section 28-105 of the Revised Statutes Cumulative Supplement, 2024, by removing the minimum period of post-release supervision for Class III and IIIA felonies. Specifically, it changes the language to state that there is a minimum of none for both imprisonment and post-release supervision for these classes of felonies, replacing the previous requirement of a minimum of nine months of post-release supervision if imprisonment is imposed. The bill also repeals the original section 28-105, effectively updating the legal framework regarding the penalties associated with these felony classes.

By eliminating the mandatory post-release supervision period, the bill aims to provide more flexibility in sentencing for Class III and IIIA felonies. This change reflects a shift in the approach to post-release supervision, potentially impacting the rehabilitation process and reintegration of offenders into society. The bill underscores a broader legislative intent to adjust the penal system in Nebraska, particularly concerning the management of post-release supervision for certain felony classifications.
