Complete·5/15/25

Nebraska LB640 modifies the calculation of sentence reduction for good behavior in jails.

Nebraska LB640 amends the calculation of sentence reduction for good behavior in jails. It specifies that any person confined in a city or county jail, including those serving custodial sanctions for parole or probation violations, will have their remaining term reduced by one day for each day without committing any breach of discipline or jail regulations. The bill repeals the original section 47-502, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, and replaces it with these new provisions.
