My grandson is in federal prison,but the state has him on parole with a detainer. Can his perole officer lift the detainer so he can go to a halfway house

Hello c:

Yes, they can... Will they?? I doubt it.

Excon, perhaps you understand the question better than I, but it appears that OP is asking if a state parole officer allow a federal prisoner to go to a halfway house. The PO could ask, but I don't see how the PO could order it. What am I missing.

Hello Lawyer:

Without a state detainer, a federal prisoner WILL get some halfway house time. With one, he'll be held til the end of his sentence and then turned over to the state.

Thanks, excon. That is helpful.
