Sentencing: county of incarceration and supervision.
Summary
Existing law generally requires, when a person is being sentenced for a felony to either state prison or county jail, that the court sentence the defendant to one of the terms of imprisonment specified in statute unless the person is given any other disposition provided by law, including a fine, probation, or the suspension of imposition or execution of sentence. Existing law requires the Judicial Council to adopt rules providing criteria for the consideration of the trial judge at the time of sentencing regarding specified decisions. This bill would require, when imposing specified felony sentences concurrent or consecutive to another felony sentence in another county or counties, the court rendering the 2nd or other subsequent judgment to determine the county or counties of incarceration and supervision of the defendant. The bill would additionally require the Judicial Council to adopt rules providing criteria for the consideration of the trial judge when determining the county or counties of incarceration and supervision pursuant to these provisions.
