Reduced time on sentencing

I would really need more information in order to answer your question because the answer depends on (a) your criminal conviction history (if you have any); and (b) what you are pleading to in order to get the 36 months. The issue here is called earned release. The statute is RCW 9.94A.728. This law permits up to half off for good time on non-violent felonies which are not crimes against a person, i.e. possession of marijuana with intent to deliver; possession of cocaine, etc. And to further complicate things, this law just got officially amended on May, 11, 2009. I presume that you pleaded guilty to the Burg 1 and Robbery 1,both of which would take you out of the half off range. Go to this link for a statement of the Department of Corrections' policy on earned release time:
