| Public Law 2001, chapter 171 authorized county sheriffs |
instead of a court to make decisions concerning prisoner |
employment, participation in public works and participation in |
electronic monitoring and intensive supervision outside the jail. |
However, the law repeals that authorization 90 days after the |
adjournment of the First Regular Session of the 121st |
Legislature. This bill repeals the reversion to the courts so |
that county sheriffs will continue to make decisions regarding |
prisoner participation in employment, public works, electronic |
monitoring and intensive supervision. |
