A: In Ohio, Senate Bill 288 does not automatically make judicial sanctions sentences concurrent to felony sentences. Senate Bill 288 allows judges to impose "judicial release" sanctions, allowing individuals serving felony sentences to be released early for certain offenses. However, the decision to make the sentences concurrent or consecutive is at the discretion of the judge, who considers various factors in each case.
