Section 44-6-140 - Controlling minimum date; for concurrent composite sentences merge and select longest incarceration; controlling guidelines release date(a) For new admissions with concurrent sentences, the minimum term of each sentence shall be added to its sentence begins date. The sentence with the minimum term requiring the longest time to be served to parole eligibility shall be the sentence controlling the minimum date. Therefore, parole eligibility for each sentence shall be computed before selecting the controlling minimum sentence. (b) Concurrent minimums applied only to sentences not parole-eligible yet. The controlling minimum date for inmates readmitted with new concurrent sentences shall be computed only for sentences on which parole eligibility has not yet been achieved. (c) Technical parole violations. The controlling minimum date of technical parole or conditional release violators shall not change from the original computation on which parole eligibility was originally achieved. (d) For new admissions with multiple concurrent guidelines sentences, the prison portion of each sentence shall be added to its sentence begins date. The sentence with the term requiring the longest time to be served in prison shall be the sentence controlling the guidelines release date. Kan. Admin. Regs. § 44-6-140
