Find Gunnison Release Dates

Gunnison Projected vs Actual Release

A projected release date is a forecast or scheduled custody date. An actual release is the completed custody event. Gunnison County's public roster uses the local label "Scheduled Rel. Date" for current inmates when the field is populated. That field can help with a county-jail sentence or alternative-sentence case, but it is not proof that release has happened.

Date warning. A scheduled date can change because of court orders, jail credit, holds, warrants, transfer orders, paperwork, or receiving-agency action.

Find a Gunnison Projected Date

The right lookup depends on custody type. A pretrial detainee may have no fixed release date unless bond, court order, or dismissal changes custody. A sentenced county-jail inmate may show a scheduled date. A state prisoner belongs in CDOC time computation, not the county roster.

1. Check the current Gunnison daily roster for "Scheduled Rel. Date."
2. Read the disposition and court fields before treating that date as final.
3. Call or request records from the jail or court for a local sentence calculation.
4. Use CDOC offender search if the person was sentenced to state prison.
5. Use the parole-board calendar for hearing timing, but not as proof that release occurred.
6. Register with VINELink check for custody-status alerts when a pending release matters.

Gunnison Scheduled Rel. Date

The Gunnison roster's local date field is the most distinctive county-specific source for projected release questions. The reviewed PDF also showed arrest date, court, court date, charge, bond amount, bond type, and disposition. Those fields help explain why a date may appear and what kind of custody is involved.

CDOC Earned Time Rules

For state-prison cases, Colorado earned time and parole eligibility can affect a projected release date. C.R.S. 17-22.5-405 is the core earned-time statute. It generally allows earned time not exceeding ten days for each month of incarceration or parole upon the required statutory showing and certification, with additional provisions for certain offenses and achievement earned time.

The earned-time statute source supports the state-prison date discussion.

Do not use CDOC earned-time rules as if they govern every Gunnison County jail release. County jail dates come from court orders, jail administration, jail credit, and holds.

Violent-Offense Parole Eligibility

Colorado legislative materials state that certain violent-offense parole eligibility moved from older 75 percent structures to 85 percent for specified crimes committed on or after July 1, 2024. The listed crimes include second degree murder, first degree assault, first degree kidnapping unless class 1 felony, specified sexual assault, first degree arson, first degree burglary, and aggravated robbery.

This is a state-prison parole eligibility issue. It is not a universal county-jail rule, and parole eligibility is not the same as release. Board action, case plan issues, holds, or rescission can still affect the actual date.

Why Gunnison Dates Change

Projected dates move for practical and legal reasons. The same person can also have more than one date in different systems.

Confirm a Gunnison Release Date

A projected date should be confirmed close to the date through the current custody source. For county jail cases, use the roster, detention staff, records request, and court record. For CDOC cases, use the offender search and parole sources. For federal cases, BOP warns that release dates can be recalculated under federal-time-credit changes.

The Gunnison County released inmates page explains how a completed release record differs from a projected date.

County Jail Date Examples

For a Gunnison County jail sentence, the date may come from sentence days, jail credit, weekender structure, work-release approval, or a court order. The local roster can show sentence and credit language in the disposition field, but the court order controls the sentence. If a date appears on the roster, compare it to the case record before planning around it.

Pretrial detainees are different. A person held pretrial may have a bond amount, bond type, or court date, but no fixed release date. Release may happen if bond is posted, conditions change, the case is dismissed, another hold clears, or a judge enters a new order.

CDOC Date Verification

The CDOC search page itself shows DOCNO, last name, first name, and gender fields. The exact projected-date label must be read from an offender result when a state-prison record is available. Do not substitute Gunnison's "Scheduled Rel. Date" for CDOC's projected state-prison date. They are governed by different agencies and different rules.

Parole eligibility adds another layer. A person may be eligible for parole before the full sentence date, but eligibility is not release. The Board of Parole can grant, deny, defer, continue, rescind, or address revocation issues depending on the case.

VINE Date Alerts

Colorado VINE is not a time-computation system, but it can help when the date is near. Registering before a release can provide a custody-status alert that the roster does not provide as a public release feed. After the alert, use the sheriff record or court record to understand the legal result.

For a CDOC release, compare any VINE alert to the offender search. For a county jail release, compare it to the jail release record and court docket. For federal custody, use BOP or federal sources instead of VINE as the main date record.

Gunnison Holds and Detainers

A hold, warrant, detainer, or transfer order can change what a release date means. A person may finish the Gunnison jail portion of a case and still be transferred to another county, CDOC, federal custody, or another authority. The Detention Services page's transport and extradition language supports this local distinction.

For that reason, the safest release-date question is not just "what date is shown." It is "what happens on that date." The answer may be community release, court appearance, transfer, parole processing, or continued custody under a different authority. Ask the jail or court for the release authority and any hold or transfer information that is releasable.

Federal Release Dates

BOP release dates are separate from Gunnison and CDOC calculations. BOP says its locator covers federal inmates from 1982 to the present and warns that release dates may be recalculated under federal-time-credit changes. Its records explanation says that if a release date is in the past and no facility is shown, the person was released from BOP custody on that date, though another justice system may still be involved.

Use federal records only when the facts point to federal custody. A Gunnison jail date, a CDOC projected date, and a BOP release date are three different systems.

Gunnison Release-Date Requests

When the public sources do not answer the date question, the request should ask for the calculation source instead of just asking when someone gets out. For a county sentence, ask the jail or court for the scheduled release date, jail credit, sentence order, holds, and transfer status that are releasable. For a state-prison sentence, ask CDOC or use the offender record because CDOC controls earned-time and parole computation.

Use exact dates when possible. If the person was booked during a known week, include that week. If the court date is known, include it. A narrow request is easier for the custodian to route and less likely to be confused with a broad criminal-history inquiry.

Gunnison Date Documents

The best document depends on the sentence. For a local jail term, the court order, jail credit, roster field, and release record work together. For a prison term, CDOC controls the projected date and parole status. For a federal term, BOP controls the federal release-date record.
