O.C.G.A. 42-9-52 (2010)
42-9-52. Discharge from parole; earned-time allowance; granting of pardons, commutations, and remissions of fines, forfeitures, or penalties


No person who has been placed on parole shall be discharged therefrom by the board prior to the expiration of the term for which he was sentenced or until he shall have been duly pardoned or otherwise released as provided in this Code section or as otherwise provided by law. The board may adopt rules and regulations, policies, and procedures for the granting of earned time to persons while serving their sentences on parole or other conditional release to the same extent and in the same amount as if such person were serving the sentence in custody. The board shall also be authorized to withhold or to forfeit, in whole or in part, any such earned-time allowance. The board may relieve a person on parole or other conditional release from making further reports and may permit the person to leave the state or county if satisfied that this is for the parolee's or conditional releasee's best interest and for the best interest of society. When a parolee or other conditional releasee has, in the opinion of the board, so conducted himself as to deserve a pardon or a commutation of sentence or the remission in whole or in part of any fine, forfeiture, or penalty, the board may grant such relief in cases within its power.
