			<html:p>Existing law authorizes the sheriff to remove a prisoner to any California state prison for safekeeping when there are reasonable grounds to believe that the prisoner may be forcibly removed from a county jail, as specified. Existing law also authorizes a judge of the superior court to, on the request of the county sheriff and with the consent of the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, designate by written order the nearest state prison or correctional facility which would be able to secure confinement of a prisoner, subject to space available, when there are reasonable grounds to believe that the prisoner in a county jail is likely to be a threat to other persons in the facility or is likely to cause substantial damage to the facility.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill would
			 authorize a person currently committed to a state prison and who is alleged to have committed a new offense, to petition the court, after consultation with counsel, to allow any pretrial confinement pending disposition of charges for the new offense that would otherwise be served in the county jail to be served at the state prison at which the prisoner is currently
			 confined,

								(a)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								When there is no jail in the county, or when the jail becomes unfit or unsafe for the confinement of prisoners, the judge of the superior court may, by a written order filed with the clerk of the court, designate the jail of a contiguous county for the confinement of any prisoner of their county, and may at any time modify or vacate the order.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(b)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								When there are reasonable grounds to believe that a prisoner may be forcibly removed from a county jail, the sheriff may remove the prisoner to any California state prison for safekeeping and it is the duty of the warden of the prison to accept and detain the prisoner in their custody until their removal is ordered by the superior court of
						the county from which
						the prisoner was delivered. Immediately upon receiving the prisoner the warden shall advise the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation of that fact in writing.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(c)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								When a county prisoner requires medical treatment necessitating hospitalization which cannot be provided at the county jail or county hospital because of lack of adequate detention facilities, and when the prisoner also presents a serious custodial problem because of their past or present behavior, the judge of the superior court may, on the request of the county sheriff and with the consent of the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, designate by written order the nearest state prison or correctional facility which would be able to provide the necessary medical treatment and secure confinement of the
						prisoner. The written order of the judge shall be filed with the clerk of the court. The court shall immediately calendar the matter for a hearing to determine whether the order shall continue or be rescinded. The hearing shall be held within 48 hours of the initial order or the next judicial day, whichever occurs later. The prisoner shall not be transferred to the state prison or correctional facility prior to the hearing, except upon a determination by the physician responsible for the prisoner’s health care that a medical emergency exists which requires the transfer of the prisoner to the state prison or correctional facility prior to the hearing. The prisoner shall be entitled to be present at the hearing and to be represented by counsel. The prisoner may waive their right to this hearing in writing at any time. If the prisoner waives their right to the hearing, the county sheriff shall notify the
						prisoner’s attorney of the transfer within 48 hours, or the next business day, whichever is later. The court may modify or vacate the order at any time.

								(d)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								The rate of compensation for the prisoner’s medical treatment and confinement within a California state prison or correctional facility shall be established by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, and shall be charged against the county making the request.

								(e)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								When there are reasonable grounds to believe that there is a prisoner in a county jail who is likely to be a threat to other persons in the facility or who is likely to cause substantial damage to the facility, the judge of the superior court may, on the request of the county sheriff and with the consent of the Secretary of the Department of Corrections
						and Rehabilitation, designate by written order the nearest state prison or correctional facility which would be able to secure confinement of the prisoner, subject to space available. The written order of the judge must be filed with the clerk of the court. The court shall immediately calendar the matter for a hearing to determine whether the order shall continue or be rescinded. The hearing shall be held within 48 hours of the initial order or the next judicial day, whichever occurs later.

								Notwithstanding Section 4000 or 4001, a person currently committed to a state prison who is alleged to have committed a new offense may request, after consultation with counsel, that any pretrial confinement pending disposition of charges for the new offense that would otherwise be served in the county jail
						be served at the state prison at which the prisoner is currently confined, unless the person is otherwise eligible for and obtains pretrial release.
							</html:p>

								A request made pursuant to paragraph (1) shall be made in court by the person requesting to serve any pretrial confinement in state prison or through their counsel.
