TO: | Honorable Ray Allen, Chair, House Committee on Corrections |
FROM: | John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB24 by Hodge (Relating to the restoration of good conduct time forfeited during a term of imprisonment.), As Introduced |
The bill would amend the Government Code by granting the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) the permission to restore good conduct time forfeited by an offender as a result of committing an offense or violating a rule of TDCJ. Under current law, TDCJ may not restore good conduct time forfeited because an inmate commits an offense, or violates a rule.
