Good conduct time, good time credit, good time, or time off for good behavior is a sentence reduction given to prisoners who maintain good behavior while imprisoned. In Florida, it is known as gain time. Good conduct time can be forfeited if a prisoner is determined to have committed disciplinary infractions and/or crimes while incarcerated. However, the vast majority of prisoners are able to routinely earn good time sentence reductions.
