24-15A-62. Due process interest in compassionate parole not created--Decision of board final.

Nothing in §§24-15A-55 to 24-15A-68, inclusive, or its application may be the basis for establishing a constitutionally protected liberty, property, or due process interest in any prisoner. An inmate is not entitled to compassionate parole or to be considered for compassionate parole. Compassionate parole may be recommended by the secretary and granted by the board if, in the judgement of the secretary and the board, the inmate meets the eligibility criteria for compassionate parole pursuant to §24-15A-55 and a compassionate parole release is unlikely to pose a detriment to the offender, victim, or community. The decision of the board regarding compassionate parole release is final.
