For prisoners in prison, applying for commutation of sentence and parole is something they think about every day. Although prisoners have the right to apply for commutation of sentence and parole, it does not mean that they can apply at any time.
Generally speaking, there will be three chances of commutation of sentences in prison in a year, namely March, July and November.
Of course, some places have four opportunities, and some have one opportunity to reduce sentence every month, which depends on the arrangements of the regulatory unit.
If a prisoner applies for a commutation of sentence and the commutation of sentence is successful, the regulatory unit will not notify the family. The inmate must inform the matter itself.
Family family members can write letters to communicate with prisoners frequently, because in prison , there are restrictions on the number of calls for prisoners, but there is no restrictions on the number of times they receive letters. Family members can communicate frequently by writing letters to prisoners online through the "Yijia Letter" mini program, and support and encourage them more, so that they can be filled with information and go home as soon as possible!
So, is the sentence reduction only one year at a time?
is not. Under normal circumstances, the sentence reduction will be reduced by only one year, but if you have meritorious performance, it will be reduced by two years. If you have outstanding meritorious performance, it will be reduced by three years. If you are sentenced to more than five years in prison for fixed-term imprisonment of , you will get the chance to get the first commutation of sentence after one and a half years of execution, and there must be a two-year interval between the two commutations.
Generally speaking, whether the sentence can be reduced is judged based on the performance of the convicted person's remorse, but some people may be restricted from reducing sentences even if they have a good attitude towards remorse.
The first type is sentenced to death reprieve ; the second type is sentenced to seven types of serious crimes and was sentenced to dying reprieve . They are crimes of intentional homicide, disposal of dangerous substances, kidnapping, robbery, arson, rape, and explosion;
The third type is an organized violent crime sentenced to death.
The judge will impose a reduction in sentences on the crime in these three situations based on the serious circumstances of the crime. Once restrictions are made, no matter how good the prisoners perform in prison in prison, they will not be able to participate in the commutation of sentences.
Some victims may feel that the reduction of sentence is not fair. They clearly agreed to be sentenced to 4 years, but they only served 3 years in prison.
But in fact, the commutation of sentence is not a negation of the original sentence, because there are certain limits in the commutation of sentence, in order to maintain the stability of the original sentence. The existence of commutation of sentences in
on the one hand encourages prisoners to work hard to reform, and on the other hand, maintains stability in prison, invisibly minimizing the potential dangers of prisoners. Only by combining punishment and reward can we better transform prisoners.
