17 Department, may, at the Director's sole discretion, be
18 awarded sentence credit at a rate as the Director shall

15credit. The Board may subsequently approve the revocation of
16additional sentence credit, if the Department seeks to revoke
17sentence credit in excess of 30 days. However, the Board shall

9federal court against the State, the Department of Corrections,

15charges against the prisoner sought to be deprived of the
16sentence credits before the Prisoner Review Board as provided
