New state law to affect where inmates are housed
When courts are back in session on Tuesday, some people convicted of misdemeanors may serve time in county jails rather than state prison because of a new state law that goes into effect on Sunday. House Bill 642, which is state law 192 from the 2011 session, says people who are convicted of misdemeanors that are sentenced to 90 to 180 days in jail — three to six months — might serve their time in county jails if their county agrees to the program. Felonies and DWI offenses are excluded. If someone is convicted of a misdemeanor and sentenced to more than 180 days, they will go to the NC Department of Correction for processing.
