Summary

Existing law provides for the commitment of persons to county jails upon conviction of a public offense. Existing law authorizes a sheriff, if facilities are no longer available in the county jail due to crowded conditions, to transfer a person committed to a county jail upon conviction for a public offense to facilities that are available in the city jail. This bill would authorize the sheriff of a county to contract with any state, county, or private jail or prison system in the United States for the confinement of inmates on behalf of the county and to transfer inmates to those facilities, with or without the inmate's permission. The bill would authorize the county to submit an invoice, and the department to pay, for the actual cost of housing and transportation of transferred inmates. The bill would appropriate an unspecified amount from the General Fund to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation for these purposes. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
