FL S1716

Reduces mandatory minimum sentences for prison releasee reoffenders: life felonies from life imprisonment to 25 years, first-degree felonies from 30 to 20 years, second-degree felonies from 15 to 10 years, and third-degree felonies from 5 to 3 years

Eliminates the requirement that prison releasee reoffenders serve 100 percent of their sentence without eligibility for parole, control release, or any form of early release

Applies retroactively to individuals sentenced as prison releasee reoffenders before July 1, 2020, who are still serving mandatory minimum terms, making them eligible for resentencing under the reduced sentencing structure

Establishes a sentence review process where the Department of Corrections must notify eligible inmates, who may then apply for a hearing in the court of original jurisdiction with appointed counsel if indigent

Allows resentenced individuals to receive gain-time credits they were previously ineligible to earn under the former law
