Introduced Text

Modifies reimbursement for holding state prisoners in county jails.

Amends Michigan law to set a daily reimbursement rate for counties holding state prisoners in county jails, not exceeding $35.00 per day. This applies to prisoners who have escaped, not returned as agreed, or violated parole terms and are awaiting disposition. Counties must submit monthly itemized costs to the Department of Corrections, which determines the reasonableness of the amount to be paid.
