Under the new law will good time further reduce the minimum release date earlier than the RRRI minimum?
A. Well, I guess these are two different things. As mentioned before, if someone remains in a county jail, the person can be made eligible for early parole for a reentry program at the local level. So that certainly would be release prior to the minimum sentence for the county sentence and it really is a lot of latitude at the county level for determining how early that release would be. If someone is sent to a state prison and is eligible for RRRI min, as was mentioned earlier, there is a formula that determines what that earlier, possible min is.
