NRS 209.387  Legislative findings and declarations regarding programs for education of offenders.  The Legislature finds and declares that the program for general education of offenders and the program of education of offenders in English as a second language are acts of grace of the State. No offender has a right to participate in such a program, and it is not intended that the establishment of such programs create any such right or interest in liberty or property or establish a basis for any cause of action against the State, its political subdivisions, agencies, boards, commissions, departments, officers or employees.
