Not Legal Advice: The PE/TE date refers to the sentence length, offense, minimum required time to be served before transfer/parole eligibility, jail time credit, class status, and release dates.

PE stands for 'Parole Eligible,' while TE stands for 'Transfer Eligible.'

Transfer Eligible (TE) pertains to the transfer of inmates who have committed certain crimes to 'parole' status. They are assigned a 'transfer eligibility (TE) date.'

“Parole” is the release of an inmate into the community prior to the expiration of the sentence, subject to conditions imposed by the Board and to supervision. Supervision is carried out on behalf of the Board by Parole/Probation Officers, also referred to as “supervision officers.”

EPA stands for Emergency Powers Act. Due to overcrowding in Arkansas prisons, it was enacted to allow the release of inmates who are within 90 days of their parole date. There is also an expanded EPA, which has gone into effect a few times, allowing the release of inmates who are within one year of their parole date.... Show More
