United States Ninth Circuit


BENNY v. U.S. PAROLE COMM'N, 00-16867

The U.S. Parole Commission's jurisdiction over a parolee is not automatically terminated under 18 U.S.C. section 4211(c)(1), if five years on parole release elapse without an early termination decision, but a writ of mandamus should issue requiring an early termination hearing and decision.
