Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to findings of the state board of parole necessary for discretionary release of incarcerated persons on parole

AI Summary

This bill amends the executive law to change the criteria for discretionary release on parole. The bill requires the parole board to grant parole to any eligible incarcerated person unless the parole case record demonstrates a current and unreasonable risk that the person will violate the law if released, and such risk cannot be mitigated by parole supervision. The bill also requires the parole board to consider various evidence of the incarcerated person's rehabilitation and reform, and to provide detailed, individualized, and non-conclusory written explanations for any denials of parole. Additionally, the bill requires the parole board to report quarterly on denials of parole, including the reasons for each denial, the assigned commissioners, and demographic information on the applicants.
