Subject to the limitations under sub. (3), a county sheriff or a superintendent of a house of correction may place in the home detention program any person confined in jail. The sheriff or superintendent may transfer any prisoner in the home detention program to the jail. 302.425(2g)(2g) County departments and department; general authority. Subject to the limitations under sub. (3m), a county department or the department may place in the home detention program any juvenile who is in its custody or under its supervision. 302.425(2m)(2m) Intensive sanctions program participants. Notwithstanding the agreement requirements under sub. (3), the department may place any intensive sanctions program participant in a home detention program. 302.425(3)(3) Placement of a prisoner in the program. The sheriff or superintendent may, if he or she determines that the home detention program is appropriate for a prisoner, place the prisoner in the home detention program and provide that the prisoner be detained at the prisoner’s place of residence or other place designated by the sheriff or superintendent and be monitored by an active electronic monitoring system. The sheriff or superintendent shall establish reasonable terms of detention and ensure that the prisoner is provided a written statement of those terms, including a description of the detention monitoring procedures and requirements and of any applicable liability issues. The terms may include a requirement that the prisoner pay the county a daily fee to cover the county costs associated with monitoring him or her. The county may obtain payment under this subsection or s. 302.372, but may not collect for the same expenses twice. 302.425(3m)(3m) Placement of a juvenile in the program. The department or, upon the agreement of the department, the county department may place the juvenile in the home detention program and provide that the juvenile be detained at the juvenile’s place of residence or other place designated by the department or the county department and be monitored by an active electronic monitoring system.

This section does not apply to: 302.425(7)(b)(b) A person in jail pending the disposition of his or her parole, extended supervision, or probation revocation proceedings. 302.425 AnnotationA person subject to home detention under this section is not “in custody” and therefore is not entitled to sentence credit for time served under s. 973.155. State v. Swadley, 190 Wis. 2d 139, 526 N.W.2d 778 (Ct. App. 1994). 302.425 AnnotationThis section allows the sheriff to place persons on home monitoring when they are given jail time as a probation condition. A circuit court has no power to prohibit the sheriff from ordering home monitoring for a probationer ordered to serve jail time as a probation condition. By precluding the sheriff from releasing the probationer on home monitoring, the trial court substantially interfered with the sheriff’s power in violation of the separation of powers doctrine. State v. Schell, 2003 WI App 78, 261 Wis. 2d 841, 661 N.W.2d 503, 02-1394. 302.425 AnnotationUnder this section, a prisoner participating in the home detention program remains at all times “confined,” that is to say imprisoned, in a jail. The fact that the prisoner is “detained” during the prisoner’s participation in the program at a location other than a jail facility does not negate the fact that the prisoner remains confined in a jail for purposes of this section and, therefore, “confined in a correctional institution” for purposes of s. 940.225 (2) (h). State v. Hilgers, 2017 WI App 12, 373 Wis. 2d 756, 893 N.W.2d 261, 15-2256. 302.43302.43 Good time. Every inmate of a county jail is eligible to earn good time in the amount of one-fourth of his or her term for good behavior if sentenced to at least 4 days, but fractions of a day shall be ignored. An inmate shall be given credit for time served prior to sentencing under s. 973.155, including good time under s. 973.155 (4). An inmate who violates any law or any regulation of the jail, or neglects or refuses to perform any duty lawfully required of him or her, may be deprived by the sheriff of good time under this section, except that the sheriff shall not deprive the inmate of more than 2 days good time for any one offense without the approval of the court. An inmate who files an action or special proceeding, including a petition for a common law writ of certiorari, to which s. 807.15 applies shall be deprived of the number of days of good time specified in the court order prepared under s. 807.15 (3). This section does not apply to a person who is confined in the county jail in connection with his or her participation in a substance abuse treatment program that meets the requirements of s. 165.95 (3), as determined by the department of justice under s. 165.95 (9) and (10). 302.43 HistoryHistory: 1977 c. 353; 1989 a. 31 s. 1667; Stats. 1989 s. 302.43; 1997 a. 133; 2005 a. 25; 2013 a. 20. 302.43 AnnotationWhen the defendant was sentenced to ten months in the house of correction for battery and seven years in state prison for intimidation, the defendant was not entitled to “good time” credit for the house of correction sentence, which should be applied to the prison sentence. The trial court was required to construe the defendant’s sentences as a single sentence, which put the sentences under the purview of s. 973.01. Because the defendant was, under the terms of the statutes, an inmate of the prison system rather than the county jail, this section, the county jail “good time” statute, does not apply to the defendant’s sentence. State v. Harris, 2011 WI App 130, 337 Wis. 2d 222, 805 N.W.2d 386, 10-1955. 302.43 AnnotationOne confined for civil (remedial) contempt is not eligible to earn good time, but one confined for criminal (punitive) contempt is eligible. 74 Atty. Gen. 96. 302.44302.44 Cooperation between counties regarding prisoners. 302.44(1)(1) Two or more counties within the state may agree under s. 66.0301 for the cooperative establishment and use of the jails and rehabilitation facilities of any of them for the detention or imprisonment of prisoners before, during and after trial and for sharing the expense without reference to s. 302.34. The sheriffs of the counties shall lodge prisoners in any jail or rehabilitation facility authorized by the agreement and shall endorse the commitment, if any, under s. 302.35 in case detention or imprisonment is in the jail or rehabilitation facility of another county. Only jails and rehabilitation facilities approved by the department for the detention of prisoners may be used under the agreement. The sheriff of the county of arrest shall transport the prisoner to and from court and to any other institution whenever necessary. 302.44(2)(2) A county in this state may enter into a contract with a receiving county outside of the state to pay the receiving county to detain or imprison prisoners who are not in the custody of the department before, during, and after trial if the receiving county borders the county in which the prisoner would otherwise be detained or imprisoned, and the monthly expenses charged to the county in this state by the receiving county to detain or imprison the prisoner are at least 25 percent less than the monthly expenses charged by the county in this state. Any such contract shall provide for all of the following: 302.44(2)(b)(b) A requirement that an equivalent agency or department to the department of corrections in the receiving state approve the jail or facility in the receiving county to receive prisoners from the county in this state. 302.44(2)(c)(c) Provisions concerning the costs of prisoner maintenance, extraordinary medical and dental expenses, and any participation in or receipt by prisoners of rehabilitative or correctional services, facilities, programs, or treatment, including those costs not reasonably included as part of normal maintenance. 302.44(2)(d)(d) Provisions concerning any participation in programs of prisoner employment, if any, the disposition or crediting of any payments received by prisoners on account of employment, and the crediting of proceeds from or disposal of any products resulting from employment. 302.44(2)(f)(f) Waiver of extradition by Wisconsin and the state to which the prisoners are transferred. 302.44(2)(g)(g) Retention of jurisdiction of the prisoners transferred by Wisconsin. 302.44(2)(h)(h) Regular reporting procedures concerning Wisconsin prisoners by officials of the receiving county. 302.44(2)(i)(i) Provisions concerning procedures for probation, parole, extended supervision, and discharge.
