the lawsuit says the release date time calculation process involves a convoluted system for transferring paperwork from one agency to another, often requiring records to be physically driven across the state for hand delivery.
That shouldn't be a thing in 2021.

It's an incredibly antiquated practice, much like the requirement that service of process in civil suits filed in Louisiana state courts must first be attempted by the sheriff's office.

It’s worse. SNAP and healthcare benefits are cut off when you are incarcerated. DCFS and DHH had systems in place that were ready to connect with DOC in real time. The purpose was to run constant queries in order to update eligibility. The problem was that DOC internal system was SIX months behind. Thus the eligibility list was SIX months old and not current at any given time a query was run. Prisoners received millions of SNAP , FITAP and other benefits while in jail bc DOC could upload incarceration info in real time.
