Description
[25 Cal3d Page 563] Petitioner, convicted of narcotics offenses in 1975, was initially sentenced pursuant to the Indeterminate Sentence Law (ISL) then in effect. Once the Determinate Sentencing Act (DSL) became operative on July 1, 1977, petitioner was screened for a serious offender hearing pursuant to the provisions of Penal Code section 1170.2, subdivision (b). (All further statutory references are to that code unless otherwise cited.) For the reasons set forth below, we conclude that the [25 Cal3d Page 564] method by which petitioner was screened for such a hearing by procedures of the Community Release Board (CRB), neither created suspect classifications nor affected his fundamental liberty interest, nor did the resulting recomputation of petitioner's release date deny him the equal protection of the laws.
