First, the criminal law stipulates that the reduction of sentence shall not exceed half of the sentence. Second, the prison law stipulates that prisoners shall be assessed by percentage during their sentences, with a term of one year. Once a month, register and publish, exchange scores for rewards and merits, and reduce your sentence according to the number of rewards and merits and your performance report during your sentence. Criminals under the age of three, who have no special performance, can generally be rewarded with a six-month reduction in sentence.
