Any inmate having forfeited time granted for good conduct pursuant to § 24-2-12 may earn such forfeited time back by petitioning the classification board, established by the rules promulgated by the Department of Corrections, for restoration of good conduct time if the inmate has remained free of disciplinary sanctions for three full calendar months succeeding the termination of the imposed disciplinary sanction. The Department of Corrections may promulgate rules, pursuant to chapter 1-26, regarding the restoration of forfeited good conduct time. This section does not apply to the forfeiture of time granted for good conduct pursuant to § 24-2-18.
