My name is Marc Blatstein - I, too, was convicted of a felony. To call this a life-altering event, at best, is an understatement.
My license was eventually reinstated- Prison is Temporary.
Knowledge and Preparation will help build back the Confidence you’ll need throughout this process.
• The DOJ has a 98% Conviction Rate.
• Delaying to act now is at your peril.
• Hiring a legal team doesn’t just mean they have experience; they also need a proven track record of successfully defending cases like yours.
Social Security
SSI benefits are suspended if you are incarcerated for more than 30 consecutive days but less than 12 months and terminated if you are incarcerated for 12 months or longer.
• You must request to have your benefits reinstated upon your release and provide a copy of your release documents.
• If your BOP facility has a pre-release agreement with a local SSA office, your Case Manager might be able to help expedite the process so you can start receiving your benefits as soon as possible after your release.

Release clothing
• The BOP will provide clothing for your release if necessary.
• You can have approved clothing mailed to the facility before your release date.
Change of address
• Make sure your loved ones know how to reach you after your release.
• Every halfway house has different rules and restrictions.
• Stock up on approved commissary items you will need right away.
• Every federal district has its own set of rules for supervised release.
• Every state has its own set of rules for sex offender compliance.
The Day of Your Release
• On the day of your release, you will report to R&D (Receiving and Discharge) to complete the required release steps. Procedures may vary at each facility but will include:
• Physical search (only if you are being released to the custody of law enforcement agents) • Form completion.
• Dress out (changing into your release clothes)
• Receipt of any prescription medication, property, and funds, including the balance from your account.
Part V) After Release / Post-Incarceration Service
• YOU ARE STILL UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE BOP
--You’re in a Residential Re-entry Center (halfway house) or working with the BOP’s Community Corrections Management.
Home Confinement (the last six months or 10% of the sentence, whichever is less), and you will transition from the RRC or CSC with another set of rules and requirements. When leaving BOP custody, you will start a supervised release period, which is often three years.
