Intermittent Sentenced Inmates / Weekenders
Inmates who are
permitted to serve their sentence on weekends have generally received a suspended
prison or jail term. As a condition of probation, they may have been
ordered to serve an intermittent sentence on weekends so they may continue
with their employment. This is a privilege granted by the Court and should
not be taken lightly.
The following rules shall apply for anyone serving an intermittent
sentence:
- Once the schedule has been
established, it will be followed;
- Failure to report or to
report on time is a violation of your terms of sentencing and you
will be
held by the jail to serve the remainder of your sentence in full.
- Your schedule will be
completed on consecutive weekends and will not change, unless done so
by
the Court.
- If you are sick, you must
show up at the Jail on the date you are scheduled, with any paperwork
from
your doctor, and the Jail personnel will determine if you are too sick
to serve your scheduled time.
- You may be required to
participate in an inside or an outside work detail. If you refuse to
participate
you will be held for the remainder of your sentence in full.
- Do not call the Jail to
report any matter concerning your sentence.
- The Jail will notify the
Probation Department after each weekend, which inmate/s did or did not
report to the Jail.
- You will be permitted to
bring to this facility the following:
- Only the clothing you are
wearing;
- Only the cash needed to
purchase hygiene items or non-prescription medications;
- One bible;
- Prescription medication,
prescribed by your doctor; and they must be in the prescription
bottle
for the medication;
- Keys to your vehicle
and/or place of residence;
- NO OTHER ITEMS WILL BE
ACCEPTED!
- Violating any Major or
Serious rule, including but not limited to reporting to jail under the
influence of
alcohol or drugs, in this handbook, you will be held to serve the remainder
of your sentence in full.
- You may make a request on
the jail request form to the appropriate Court for a hearing on any
violation
listed above.
- After you have completed
your sentence, a letter will be sent to the appropriate Probation
Department.
