pardons and parole procedures
My brother is technically eligible for parole in the month of September 2000. He in an inmate in TDC for violation of his probation (20yr probatiion). What can and should we do, his family, to strengthen his chances of receiveing parole based on the parole procedures? Is there a formal process we should take?
What are your general recommendations?

Re: pardons and parole procedures
The best thing the family can do is to communicate to the PB that it is there to support the brother after he is released. Moral support, financial support, etc., until he becomes self-supporting. The offer of a job, a place to live, those kinds of things are critical because most fail for the lack of them.
Whether you do this in person or in writing depends. Write to the secretary of the board and request to be put on the hearing agenda. Respond appropriately to the reply your received.
Good luck.
