HABEAS CORPUS PETITIONS—28 U.S.C.§2241
FOR FEDERAL INMATES WHO ARE BEING DENIED APPLICATION OF EARNED TIME CREDITS TO SENTENCE
This firm is accepting cases for federal inmates eligible for earned time credit but who are being denied the application of accumulated earned time credit. In some cases, we have petitioned the federal courts for habeas corpus relief.
If it is the case that your institution or the Bureau of Prisons is denying the application of earned time credits accumulated under the First Step Act, it may be that habeas corpus relief is available.
This is particularly true in cases where the time to release (“door”) is 18 months or less as the result of recent BOP policy.
All such cases require that administrative procedures be followed within the institution until all avenues of appeal have been completed. There are four steps to completion, or “exhaustion,” of such remedies through the institution and BOP. Administrators and counselors at your institution have the requisite forms and instructions for completing the administrative process through all four steps.
In certain cases, where the process would take too long, it is possible to seek relief without full exhaustion; that is, where it would take too long, and might be deemed futile. In such cases, it is possible (but in no way guaranteed) that the federal court would allow a petition to proceed without first completing the administrative remedy process.
This firm is considering taking these cases where it deems appropriate. There is a flat fee for these services. Please contact the firm if you have any questions regarding whether habeas corpus relief may shorten your sentence for denying the application of earned time credit. Cases where there is sufficient time to seek administrative relief are not being accepted until the process is complete.
