Summary

The bill creates a process for people still incarcerated for certain serious felonies to ask the court that sentenced them to reduce, suspend, or otherwise change the unserved portion of their sentence after serving 15, 20, or 25 years, depending on the crime. It sets filing requirements, limits how often petitions can be made, and requires victim notification. The Department of Corrections must also form a work group to recommend implementation practices and improve victim‑notification systems, reporting its findings by December 1 2026.
