Summary
Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that upon completion of all mandatory conditions of parole or mandatory supervised release, the Department of Corrections shall file a certification with the Prisoner Review Board that the subject has completed the mandatory conditions of parole or mandatory supervised release and that discharge is appropriate. Provides that the order of discharge shall become effective upon entry of the order of the Board in cases in which the Board determined that the parolee or releasee: (1) is likely to remain at liberty without committing another offense; or (2) received a high school diploma, associate's degree, bachelor's degree, career certificate, or vocational technical certification or passed high school equivalency testing during the period of his or her parole or mandatory supervised release.

Provides that the order of discharge in other cases shall become effective 30 days after the Department of Corrections files the certification unless the Prisoner Review Board denies early discharge.
