English to Spanish Law/Patents Law (general) New Jersey State Parole Board Handbook

Deny parole and set a future eligibility term.

The Board panel can deny parole and give you a new eligibility term (a "hit"). This term is added to your current parole eligibility date.

d. Deny parole and refer your case to a three-member Board Panel.

The Board panel can deny parole and refer your case to a three-member Board panel in order to establish an eligibility term outside the established guidelines. If your case is referred to a three-member Board panel, the panel will explain, in writing, the reason(s) for this referral. If a three-member Board panel cannot reach a unanimous decision on the eligibility term, your case will be referred to the full Board for the establishment of the eligibility term.

e. Refer your case to a third Board panel member if the two-member Board panel cannot agree.

The two-member Board panel can refer your case to a third Board member if the two-member Board panel cannot reach a unanimous decision in your case. The third Board member will review the records of the hearing before a decision is made. The three-member Board panel can make one of the decisions listed above or below.

f. Defer for further information.

The Board panel can defer (postpone) a decision because the Board panel needs more information. Your case will be considered when the reason for the postponement is
`resolved. You may, but are not required to, appear before the Board panel again before a decision is made in your case.

You will be told the Board panel's decision and will receive it in writing at the end of your hearing. If the Board panel decides to deny parole, the written notice that you will receive will list the reasons for the denial.
