Repeals the 85% earned-time allowance cap for inmates sentenced after June 30, 1995.

Mississippi HB110 repeals the 85% earned-time allowance cap for inmates sentenced after June 30, 1995. This bill allows inmates to accrue earned-time allowances without the previous limit, potentially reducing their sentence. It also outlines rules for earned-release supervision and forfeiture of earned time for serious violations or court-defined frivolous lawsuits. The bill amends Section 47-5-138 of the Mississippi Code of 1972.
