Description
Section 3621(e)(2)(B) of Title 18 provides that the Bureau of Prisons ("BOP") may reduce by as much as one year the length of a prisoner's sentence for successful completion of a residential substance abuse treatment program. The statute limits the BOP's authority to do that to cases involving prisoners convicted of a "nonviolent offense." Through a regulation and program statement, the BOP has interpreted "nonviolent offense" as used in that statute to exclude the 18 U.S.C. § 922(g) crime of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
