Jail in another county

  • costs
When there is no sufficient jail in any county wherein any criminal offense has been committed, any county or district judge, upon application of the sheriff, may order any person charged with any criminal offense and ordered to be committed to jail to be sent to the jail of the county nearest having a sufficient jail. The sheriff of such nearest county, on exhibit of the order of such judge, shall receive and keep in safe custody in the jail of his county the person ordered to be so committed. Such sheriff, upon the order of the district court thereof, shall redeliver such person when demanded, and all the expenses of keeping such person shall be paid by the county from which such person was sent. The board of county commissioners of the county from which any prisoner is sent, at the next regular meeting after receiving the bill for the expenses of such maintenance, safekeeping, and custody, shall audit and allow the claim and pay the same to the treasurer of the county in which such jail is situated for the use of such county.
