Section 651:19-a - Day Reporting ProgramI. The superintendent of a county correctional facility may establish a day reporting program in lieu of incarceration for certain offenders as deemed appropriate by the superintendent. Such release shall be for such terms or intervals of time and under such terms and conditions as may be permitted by the facility's rules and regulations or as the court may order. Any part of a day spent in the free community under such a release order shall be counted as a full day toward the serving of the sentence unless otherwise provided by the sentencing court. II. The sentencing court may order any person who has been committed to a correctional institution other than state prison to be released therefrom for the purpose of participating in a day reporting program, provided the county correctional facility has established such a program. 2007, 149:2, eff.
