Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to probation and parole generally; clarifying that judicial convictions and administrative disciplinary findings for assault or escape determine parole ineligibility; and providing for an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill clarifies that a prisoner is ineligible for parole if, while serving a sentence, they have been convicted in district court or found through an administrative hearing process by the Wyoming Department of Corrections to have committed assault or escape. This means that both official court judgments and final decisions from the department's internal disciplinary hearings will now explicitly determine parole ineligibility for these offenses, with the changes taking effect on July 1, 2026.
