2000 SESSION
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 53.1-115.1 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§ 53.1-115.1. Superintendents of regional jails and regional jail-farms to make monthly reports to Compensation Board.
The superintendent of every regional jail and every regional jail-farm shall
report on the first day of each month to the Director Compensation Board,
giving the record of each prisoner received during the preceding month on blank
forms to be furnished by the Director Compensation Board, stating whether the
offense for each prisoner is for violation of state law or of city or town ordinance. The report
shall be signed by both the superintendent and chairman of the regional
jail-farm board. Either signer found guilty of willfully falsifying the
information contained in such report shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor.
If any superintendent fails to send such report within five ten business days
after the date when the report should be forwarded, the Director Compensation
Board shall notify the superintendent of such failure. If the superintendent
fails to make the report within ten days from that date, then the Director
Compensation Board shall cause the report to be prepared from the
books of the superintendent and shall certify the cost thereof to the Comptroller.
The Comptroller shall issue his warrant on the Treasurer for that amount, deducting
the same from any funds that may be due the superintendent by the Commonwealth.
