Are you currently serving a criminal offense sentence in Indiana? Under Indiana law, one option that may be available to you is a

"Sentence Modification". While many types of sentences may be eligible for potential modification, those convicted of serious

crimes, such as murder, manslaughter, kidnapping, and sexual offenses are not eligible for Sentence Modification under the statute.

A Sentence Modification hearing may be requested in cases where the sentence imposed was erroneous or illegal, it causes undue

hardship on the family of the offender, offender has completed rehabilitational or self improvement programs, or new and relevant

information applicable to the underlying case comes to light. The court may then set a hearing if the request is deemed appropriate.

It is important to have a skilled attorney to navigate the process, and determine what the potential modification issues may be.
