Relates to failure to complete a program for time allowances due to circumstances beyond an individual's control

This bill amends the state correction law to protect incarcerated individuals from losing time credits when they fail to complete assigned programs due to circumstances beyond their control. It applies to people serving indeterminate or determinate sentences in correctional facilities and mental hygiene facilities, excluding those with life sentences. The legislation ensures that time allowances for good behavior, work, and treatment progress cannot be withheld if an inmate cannot finish a program because of external factors. Additionally, it prevents the forfeiture of earned eligibility certificates and parole release dates under similar conditions.
