Heading: Is petitioner entitled to a hearing prior to the revocation of his parole?

Text: In State ex rel. Johnson v. Cady [15] this court examined the procedure which must be followed by the department prior to the revocation of an individual's parole. Here, petitioner is subject to the same statutory requirements for parole as a person not treated under the Sex Crimes Act. [16] In that the petition herein was on file at the time of the Johnson v. Cady mandate, [17] petitioner is entitled to a hearing prior to the revocation of his parole. By the Court. The department of health & social services is ordered to restore all good time that was forfeited by order of the special review board; petitioner is ordered retained in custody of respondent and the department of health & social services shall have fifteen days within which to calculate the dates on which he will be eligible for release pursuant to sec. 959.15(12), Stats. 1967; in the event such computation makes petitioner eligible for mandatory release, the department shall have an additional thirty days within which it shall apply, if it so chooses, to the committing court under sec. 959.15 (12), (13), and (14), Stats. 1967, to suspend parole.
