7-03/010.60 Civil Prisoners



Inmates remanded to the custody of the Sheriff on civil process, or arrested on a civil contempt warrant must be segregated from inmates charged with crimes (refer 4001 P.C.). Should a civil prisoner also be charged with a crime, he will be dealt with in the normal manner.  Prisoners detained on civil charges only will be kept segregated from all other inmates.

A separate transmittal will be prepared should a "civil" prisoner be remanded to the custody of the Sheriff. This transmittal must be clearly marked at the top, "Civil Prisoner Only".
