Summary

Existing law generally regulates county jails. Existing law provides that a public entity is liable for injury proximately caused by an act or omission of an employee of the public entity within the scope of his or her employment if the act or omission would have given rise to a cause of action against that employee or the employee's personal representative, as specified. Existing law exempts a public entity from liability for injuries or damages under specified circumstances. This bill would provide that a public entity that owns or operates a county jail or correctional facility constructed prior to October 1, 2011, or an employee thereof, shall not be liable to an inmate, ward, or prisoner of that county jail or correctional facility for an injury arising out of the failure of the facility to comply with standards or conditions imposed upon state prisons, as specified.
