Bill > HB6567

This bill amends the Corrections Code of 1953 to update various provisions related to the good time system, parole, and prisoner management. Key provisions include: - Allowing the Department of Corrections to establish a youth correctional facility to house prisoners 19 years old or younger. - Revising parole eligibility and release requirements, including eliminating the distinction between "good time" and "disciplinary credits." - Establishing a process for medically frail prisoners to be paroled, with certain conditions and oversight. - Repealing sections related to "disciplinary time" and updating hearings and transfer procedures. - Making other technical and clarifying changes to the corrections code. The bill aims to modernize Michigan's corrections system and prisoner management practices. It was introduced in the 101st Legislature and its enactment is contingent on the passage of a related bill.
