Erik and Lyle Menendez were resentenced yesterday, making them eligible for parole. This comes after they’ve served 35 years in prison for killing their parents.

The two-day proceeding in L.A. ended its first day with the judge resentencing the brothers imprisoned for over three decades for their parents' 1989 murders.

Due to changes in California law, the Menendez brothers, who are now in their 50s, are eligible to apply for parole

Jose Menendez and his wife Kitty Menendez, the parents of Erik and Lyle Menendez, were shot and killed in their Beverly Hills mansion in August 1989. In July 1996, the Menendez brothers were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

The brothers' uphill battle to regain their freedom returns to court Friday as the court hears why the defense believes DA Nathan Hochman's bias against them means he needs to go.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman has filed a formal opposition to the motion by Erik and Lyle Menendez seeking to recuse his office from their pending resentencing proceedings.

After a number of delays, blocks and legal hurdles, The Menendez Brothers will finally have their resentencing hearing next week.

Attorneys for Erik and Lyle Menendez Friday withdrew their motion asking that the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office be removed from the brothers' case, saying they want to expeditiously move forward with their bid to have the pair re-sentenced and possibly be released from prison.
