Home Incarceration Program
Home
incarceration allows participants to serve their jail sentence in the confines
of their home. If work release is granted along with home incarceration, the
participant will have a set schedule to follow. Home Incarceration must be
granted by the sentencing court. Home Incarceration must be granted on each
charge prior to a participant going home. The following is a list of
requirements governing the Home Incarceration Program:
·
Have an operable telephone at the place of residence. Only basic
telephone service is allowed. No answering machines, call waiting, call
forwarding, etc., is permitted. If participant resides in an area that is
considered by the telephone company to be long distance, participant will
be responsible for all bills for calls made to approved residence by the Home
Incarceration Staff.
·
Pay $50.00 processing fee to be placed on the program.
Additionally, for each day that a participant is on the Home Incarceration
Program they will be charged at the rate of $10.00 per day plus a 9 dollar a
day equipment fee. Only money orders are accepted. If a payment is made in
cash, personal check or certified check the payment will be returned and the
account will be considered delinquent.
