HB967

Louisiana HB967 modifies parole eligibility for certain offenders serving life sentences.

Louisiana HB967 amends the state's parole eligibility rules for certain offenders. Specifically, it removes the requirement that an offender must have pleaded guilty to be immediately eligible for parole consideration if serving a life sentence for an offense committed on or before July 2, 1973. This change affects the criteria for parole eligibility, potentially expanding the pool of offenders who can be considered for parole under these conditions.
