Typically, when a sentence is rendered, the judge will pronounce two sentences: the minimum, and the maximum. In the case of this question, twenty years can be assumed to be the maximum. The minimum determines when the person may be paroled.
They don't actually serve it. The expectation is that they will die in prison or will be let out on parole at some point. One of the purposes of very long sentences is to limit how quickly the inmate can come up for parole, or eliminate that possibility completely.
It depends on the state, but I believe(In MASS anyway) you are normally eligible for parole after serving 1/3 of your sentence. However, some states do not even have parole. For example, Maine allows parolees to move here, but we do not have parole. Instead we give "good time", which takes some time off of the sentence and if you receive a suspended sentence, you get out early and serve the rest of your time on probation. If you mess up on probation, you ban be sent back to prison for a part of the rest of you sentence or just for the rest of your sentence. But like I sadi, it depends on the state.
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.
yes cause it would nbe very important?
The length of a life sentence in the State of Oklahoma is until the person dies. If a person has a Life Sentence then they could possibly get paroled based on many factors.

If you have an outstanding parole warrant and you are not arrested before your parole period expires, it is possible that you could be released from parole. However, it is important to note that parole is a legal agreement between you and the state, and violating the terms of your parole can have serious consequences. If you are released from parole and the warrant is still outstanding, you may still face arrest if you come into contact with law enforcement again. Additionally, having an outstanding warrant can impact your ability to obtain employment, housing, and other opportunities, and it may be in your best interest to address the warrant. It is recommended that you consult with an attorney to understand your legal options and potential consequences, and to determine the best course of action for your situation.
It depends on what state your taking about and what the charge is, and whether or not it is with parole in so many years. Its up to the Judge! Many factors come into play with this answer, the defendant may have coped a plea with the prosecution for a parole time in so many years, there's no telling. CVaron
To reunite means to come together again after being apart.
I do not think so, most states do not permit a convicted felon to be around hand guns. Especially if they are on parole or probation, and the Parole officier can and will come to your home unannounced and if they see that or feel that may be the case, they can violate the parole.
Short answer: Yes. Will the State wish to spend the money required to get you from Washington back to Arkansas, that would depend on what you are on probation for? If you are on parole for a violent crime they will come get you. If you are on parole for a minor drug charge they probably would not come get you.
