In their efforts to reduce correctional populations, numerous states have passed laws that allow parole boards, prison officials, or judges to shorten the sentences of people already serving time in custody. These so-called "early release" laws have proven highly controversial and in at least three states have been repealed outright. In others, they remain on the books but have provided less savings than anticipated because of the …

Civil Procedure--Jurisdiction--The West Virginia Long-Arm Statute, John A. Rollins Apr 1977

Civil Procedure--Jurisdiction--The West Virginia Long-Arm Statute, John A. Rollins
