A few weeks ago the BOP set forth a new directive prioritizing Home Confinement for individuals who do not need the services a Residential Reentry Center (RRC) or commonly referred to as Halfway house (HWH).
The purpose of time in RRC/HWH is to allow individuals time to find a stable home, to reconnect with family and friends, to get necessary medical attention, and to find decent and steady employment.
The new directive allows placement directly at home if you don’t need these services. For example, if you already have a stable home, have financial and emotional support from family and friend as well as having reasonable employment “prospects” (you don’t necessarily need to have a job) then you should formally request to be placed directly on HC.
The BOP will review your loved one’s case and weigh it against 7 factors. If your loved one’s case satisfies most or all of these 7 factors, you should consider formally requesting consideration for direct to HC placement.
Reach out to L&J to learn and review this for your LO. At long last there are positive developments within the BOP. It’s time to fight for liberty for you loved one. We are here to help.
