Content: Early release from prison is sometimes known as parole. Parole is not granted automatically. Instead, a prisoner must apply for parole. Typically, a state parole board considers an individual’s request. The state parole board then decides whether early release is appropriate. An individual, once released early, must comply with the terms of their early release. Parole may be modified or rescinded depending on whether a parolee (someone who has been paroled) has complied with its terms. Contents
