Typically, individuals sentenced to five years in prison will serve the full five years, unless they are eligible for parole or good behavior credits which may reduce the time served.
This depends on whether the state has a parole system and if the defendant is eligible for it. For a 15 year sentence, if a state has a parole system, the defendant could be required to serve at least five years, perhaps even more if, for example, the defendant was convicted of violent crime. Each state that has a parole system dictates the minimum time a person must serve before being eligible for parole.
No. Even though the DA who prosecuted him supported his request for parole. This was part of the plea agreement when he pled guilty - that, as long as he was a model prisoner, the DA would support him at parole time. But he had only served five of this 10-20 year term in May of 2011, and his request was denied. He won't be up for parole again until he has served another five years, which will be a total of 10. And that will be in 2016. He will be 56 years old.

If the person received a twenty-five (25) year sentence, 1995 sentencing rules require that they serve 85% of 25 years before release. If there is no supervision to follow, they are simply released. If they have supervision to follow their prison sentence, they would have to report to a probation office upon release. Parole was abolished in 1986 but there are many forms of supervision, probation, community control, controlled release, etc.
Yes Yes Yes, the president MUST be thirty five years old or he/ she cannot be president.
The question is a bit obscure, but I will do my best to answer. An inmate who is granted a parole may remain on parole the length of his original sentence. For instance: an inmate who is sentence to a maximum of twenty years, who only serves five years in prison, may be placed on parole for the remaining fifteen years if the parole board determines it would be beneficial to do so.
You are on parole for the prescribed period of parole, that is until you are discharged. This may seem confusing, but it is not intended to be. Parole is typically a matter of two years. It can be as little as one, but rarely is. It can also be for periods of five years, ten years, and is some instances life. But, once a parolee is discharged from parole, the period of parole and the jurisdiction of the DOC (Department of Corrections) over the offender are over.
You need to be good at politics and must be at least thirty-five years of age to run for President.
