Best Answer

Generally, a sentencing judge based upon the sentencing guidelines of the state in which the offender was convicted, will establish a minimum time before the offender's case is reviewed by the parole board.

Typically, LWP inmates do not see the parole board or a representative; rather, their files are reviewed and a determination is made.

Primarily, it is unusual for LWP inmates to receive parole in any state.
