CD CORR-MEDICAL PAROLE

Summary
Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that a prisoner committed to the custody of the Illinois Department of Corrections, including, without limitation, a person serving a sentence that limits the person's eligibility for reduced sentence, parole, or mandatory supervised release, shall be immediately eligible for a medical parole if the person suffers from a serious illness or serious disease which has the effect of permanently incapacitating the prisoner; or the person is terminally ill and is expected, with a reasonable degree of medical certainty, to die within the following 12 months. Establishes procedures by which the prisoner may apply to the Prisoner Review Board for medical parole. Provides that after a person is released on medical parole, statutory or other good time shall not reduce the remainder of the person's sentence while the person is on medical parole. Provides that the term of parole for a person on medical parole shall equal the remainder of the sentence of the person plus any applicable term of parole or mandatory supervised release.
