Article 13 – Board of Parole Hearings
62090.5.1.3 Subsequent Parole Consideration Hearing(s)
-
A Subsequent Parole Consideration Hearing is held for those inmates previously found unsuitable for parole and conducted for the same purpose and in the same manner as an Initial Hearing. As with the Initial Parole Consideration Hearing, the Subsequent Hearing is conducted by a panel of three, at least two of which are BPHBoard of Parole Hearings (formerly Board of Prison Terms) Commissioners. It is scheduled one to three years after the hearing in which an inmate was found unsuitable for parole. An abbreviated Life Prisoner Evaluation Report shall be prepared for this hearing if the most recent previous hearing was conducted with the use of a complete Life Prisoner Evaluation Report. Abbreviated Evaluation Reports are not to be used in consecutive hearings. An updated Post-conviction Progress Report covering factors since the last Board appearance shall also be prepared.
