Public code and process facts
Official definition
Deny parole with no regular later review and require the offender to serve the balance of the sentence, unless the offender becomes eligible for mandatory-supervision consideration before the projected release date.
In plain English
Parole was DENIED — serve-all. No regular parole review follows, though mandatory-supervision consideration may still apply if the person is eligible.
What happens next
