Conditional discharge from supervision is defined as that state of parole where a parolee is no longer required to report to an officer of the department of corrections but is required to observe all laws and make an annual written report to the board. Civil rights lost at the time of conviction are not restored.

When a paroled offender has adequately performed the obligations of his or her release for such time as shall satisfy the indeterminate sentence review board, and his or her conditional discharge from supervision is compatible with the best interests of society and the welfare of the paroled individual, and upon receipt of a report from the community corrections officer, the board may grant a conditional discharge from supervision.

Offenders may be granted a conditional discharge from supervision after a period of active supervision or at the time of parole. Parolees may be required to sign and acknowledge the conditional discharge conditions before the CDFS becomes valid.

In any case where there is a parole suspension no conditional discharge decision will be made until resolution of those allegations.

A full board vote is required to grant a CDFS for any individual convicted of an offense that resulted in a loss of life.
