Extractions: State Capital Bureau JEFFERSON CITY - Attorney General Jay Nixon took his soft-on-crime campaign against U.S. Sen. Kit Bond one step further Tuesday. With the Jefferson City Correctional Center's stern walls looming as a strategic backdrop, Nixon released memos and letters collected from state archives to support his claim that Bond awarded pardons to supporters and campaign contributors during the two terms Bond served as governor. The release of the documents was timed just two weeks before Missouri's Nov. 3 senatorial election in a race already pockmarked by finger pointing and accusations. "This is just another accusation from Jay Nixon that's 20 years old," said Dan Hubbard, a spokesperson from the Bond campaign. "It appears basically inaccurate and it's reckless for Nixon to talk about this when there are obvious flaws in his facts." In Tuesday's press conference Nixon built upon a campaign that already includes accusations of Bond commuting the sentences of 92 rapists and 55 murderers. Nixon said Bond granted more than 150 pardons during his terms as governor. "Some of these pardons were blatant political favors," Nixon said. "They were clearly inappropriate ... it was influence peddling pure and simple."

Board structure, powers, and responsibilities have altered since the institution's inception. In 1929 the Texas legislature abolished the two-member Board of Pardon Advisors, which had existed since 1893, and established a three-person body to advise the governor on clemency matters. Board members, who served for six-year terms, received their positions through gubernatorial appointment subject to state senatorial confirmation.

Clemency consists of such measures as full pardons, conditional pardons, paroles, reprieves, furloughs, and the restoration of citizenship rights for those convicted of crimes. A full pardon essentially forgives offenders for their crimes and restores all of their civil rights. A conditional pardon releases offenders from prison and extends forgiveness as long as individuals comply with certain conditions, such as good behavior. Failure to adhere to those conditions voids the clemency and subjects the offender to reimprisonment. Parole, also a conditional release, permits certain prisoners freed at the discretion of designated officials to serve their sentences outside of the prison under state supervision.

http://www.ago.state.co.us/agopinions/ago8407.cfm

Extractions: Dear Governor Lamm: I write in response to your February 9, 1984 inquiry about your authority to conditionally pardon a foreign national subject to detainer for deportation by the United States government. You ask specifically: Can the Governor conditionally pardon a foreign national subject to detainer by the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service for deportation and provide that the pardon shall be revoked if the person pardoned illegally returns to the United States? My conclusion is "yes." The Governor has the power to conditionally pardon individuals as long as the conditions imposed are not illegal, immoral, or impossible to perform. ( See Attorney General's Opinion of December 23, 1983). A condition requiring a convicted foreign national to remove himself from the United States is neither immoral nor impossible to perform but is illegal because it fails to recognize the primacy of federal authority in this area (see Attorney General's Opinion of December 23, 1983). This obstacle is removed when pardons are conditioned upon deportation by the federal government and revoked upon a showing of an illegal return to the United States.

Extractions: Good morning, Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee: I am here today at the Committee's request to provide information about how my office, the Office of the Pardon Attorney, normally handles clemency petitions, and to describe the procedures we followed with regard to President Clinton's grants of pardon to individuals, including Marc Rich and Pincus Green, on January 20, 2001. A pardon request is typically processed in the following manner. The pardon applicant files his clemency petition, addressed to the President, with the Office of the Pardon Attorney. He is free to utilize the services of an attorney or to act on his own behalf in seeking pardon. The standard form utilized for this process requests information about the offense, the petitioner's other criminal record, his employment and residence history since the conviction and other biographical information, and his reasons for seeking pardon. The application must be signed and notarized, and the applicant must also submit three notarized affidavits from character references who are unrelated to him, know of his conviction, and support his pardon request. When my office receives a pardon petition, it is screened to ensure that the applicant is in fact eligible to seek a pardon ( i.e

Having a criminal record is increasingly becoming a barrier for people looking for employment or applying for a visa to work in another country. It is strongly advised that those with criminal records obtain a pardon as soon as they are eligible. Those with a criminal record who have had no criminal involvement for several years may request a Federal Pardon from the National Parole Board. You can apply three to five years after the terms of their sentencing are completed (eg. fines paid, probation completed, etc.) A pardon application may be accelerated if you have urgent need to have a clear record, eg job out of the country, etc.

Extractions: Home Information ][Victim Services] WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEY'S OFFICE The prosecuting attorney's office usually begins working with victims as soon as charges are filed. In some situations, assistance can and is given even before the filing of charges. The first step taken is personal contact with the victim to notify them that a charge or charges have been filed and informing them of their rights as a victim of crime. This contact is followed up with a letter further explaining the criminal process . They are also notified that they need to submit any restitution (reimbursement) requests to the prosecutor's office as soon as possible. Idaho law requires prosecutors to notify certain victims of the rights provided to them by law. The prosecuting attorney's office provides this notification by mailing a form that lists the constitutional and statutory rights of a victim of crime. This form is included with the letter discussed in the previous paragraph. You can view and print out this notification by clicking this Notification of Rights Form link.
