Quick Glance: Alabama Parole Board to Factor Inmate Health in Decisions
  • A divided House Judiciary Committee approved legislation allowing the Alabama Board of Pardons and Paroles to consider an applicant’s medical condition when reviewing a parole application.

  • The modified bill states that individuals denied parole who have been convicted of a nonviolent offense and spent at least 20 years in prison can apply for parole five years after denial.

  • The legislation mandates that the Parole Board must consider a person’s age and health status when deciding on parole. Individuals with a 'serious chronic health condition' also have the right to appeal the Board’s decision within 28 days.

  • Criminal justice reform advocates view the bill's passage through committee as a rare bright spot in a challenging session for their proposals, with many pieces of legislation facing delays or denials.
