According to recent statements by the California Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation, the current statewide COVID-19 count (as of July 6, 2020) of incarcerated persons is 2,419 with currently over 500 active cases in CDCR employees. Understanding how to get an expedited release from state prison is no easy task. Since the June 16th announcement by the CDCR of a Community Supervision Program, there has been little information specifying exactly how eligible inmates are ...to apply for release. Eligibility Criteria for Expedited Prison Release Inmates who meet the following criteria may be eligible: Non-violent Crimes - Must not be serving sentence for crimes of domestic violence or other violent crimes defined by law Risk Assessment - Must not have California Static Risk Assessment score indicating a high risk for violence Housing Plans - Must have housing plans identified before release 180 or less Remaining Sentence - Inmate's remaining sentence must be less than 180 days COVID-19 Testing - Must submit to COVID-19 testing Inmate Release Process & COVID Testing Beyond meeting eligibility criteria, inmates must have a parole officer conduct a pre-release verification. The parole officer will then determine if he or she deems their housing plan as suitable, in which case the inmate's release is granted or denied. The CDCR has indicated that the "screening and releases will continue on a rolling basis until CDCR determines they are no longer necessary". Inmates being released from any CDCR institution will receive COVID-19 testing one week prior to release and screened for any symptoms.

We are pleased to announce our recent success in an important Habeas Corpus case resulted in a Court of Appeals published opinion recognizing the broad powers of the trial courts to resolve issues related to habeas corpus proceedings, including re-sentencing. We filed a petition for writ of Habeas Corpus on our client’s behalf in the Court of Appeals which was also denied. Finally, after filing a petition for review, the California Supreme Court granted review and ordered th...e case returned to the lower court for an order to show cause why the writ of habeas corpus should not be granted. Prior to the hearing in the trial court, the district attorney’s office failed to file a return or objection to the habeas petition. During the hearing, the court noted this failure, granted the relief in the petition and re-sentenced our client to credit time served which was a little over 4 years by this time. #courtofappeals #appealsattorney #supremecourt #losangeleslawyer #womenattorneys #womeninbusiness #justice

Conflicting laws between state and federal levels is illustrated by following medical marijuana Court of Appeals case in Lansing, Michigan. "As Michigan moves toward the widespread availability of marijuana for recreational use, a Michigan Court of Appeals ruling Tuesday could reinforce zero-tolerance workplace rules against the use of marijuana even in cases in which a person has a valid medical marijuana card." https://www.freep.com//medical-marijuana-workp/2931942002/
