This bill mandates that the State Parole Board (SPB) conduct an administrative review for certain parolees sentenced to life imprisonment who are currently on parole. Specifically, it requires that within 60 days of the bill's effective date, each eligible parolee must be reviewed to determine if they should be discharged from parole. The criteria for this review include having served at least seven years of their parole supervision and having been under advanced supervision status for the preceding two years.

The bill amends existing law by inserting provisions that streamline the review process for life-sentenced parolees, ensuring that they are evaluated for discharge without the prior requirement of a parole officer's recommendation. This change aims to facilitate the discharge process for those who have demonstrated satisfactory adjustment during their parole period, thereby potentially reducing the duration of their supervision.
