Greenholtz v. Inmates of the Nebraska Penal & Correctional Complex

What later courts said

• holding that “[t]here is no constitutional or inherent right of a convicted person to be conditionally released before the expiration of a valid sentence” — Makowski v. Governor (2014)
• holding that a state statute which “provides no more than a mere hope a benefit will be obtained…is not protected by due process.” — Thomas v. Leblanc (2019)
• holding that for purposes of due process requirements, parole release and parole revocation are not the same — Odoms v. Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision (2020)

Each line is a later court’s own words about this case, not a summary. Read the opinion before relying on it.
