Brown County Jail – Huber Law Center



Huber / EMP Inmate Information Sheet

The Brown County Jail no longer utilizes the Work Release Center for Huber inmates. Individuals who would have stayed at our Work Release Center are now enrolled in the Electric Monitoring Program (EMP). This allows sentenced individuals sentenced with Huber to work, go to school, attend treatment, provide childcare to serve their sentence from home.

EMP is a privilege, not a right! Even though we are committed to placing individuals with Huber privileges in our program, no one is guaranteed placement.

You will be required to pay a daily fee for each day you are incarcerated, currently set by the Brown County Board at the rate of $25 per day. You must pay $440.00 upon arrival ($30 booking fee, $50 EMP setup fee, and first 2 weeks of monitoring fees). Your employer will be contacted, and your payroll checks will be forwarded directly to the Brown County Jail during your incarceration. (Direct deposit of payroll is not accepted)

- The length of your sentence requires how and when to pay. (See below)

- If you are self-employed, how you pay is described below

- You are not required to have a job for EMP but failure to keep your account current will have you removed from EMP.

- Transfers are described below.

FEE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT & FEE SCHEDULE

COSTS: All inmates participating in the Electronic Monitor Program are required to pay $440.00 at time of enrollment. (Cost Breakdown on back of form for $440).

• Wisconsin Statute 303.08(3) requires the Sheriff to collect all earnings of a person working under the Huber law. Direct deposit is not allowed during your incarceration. Therefore, paychecks are required to be sent to the Brown County Jail and must be accompanied with a check stub or wage statement. You are not allowed to cash or spend any of your paycheck prior to the jail receiving it.

• If your sentence is twenty days or less, you have 2 options:

1. You must pay your EMP fees in full before placement. Example: 15-day sentence: $30 booking, $52.75 set up, $25 daily = $457.75

2. Your next paycheck must be submitted to the Brown County Jail

• Every inmate must remain current with his/her EMP fees every Friday by noon. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in the inmate being removed from the program.

• Inmates selected to participate in the EMP will be subject to random U/A testing. The inmate will be responsible for the cost of the U/A test(s), which is currently $7.00 per test.

• Accounting charges EMP fees daily. EMP accounts are reviewed every Thursday and your work hours will be verified from your paycheck stub. Accounting will keep in your account either one week or two weeks of EMP fees depending on if your employer pays you weekly or every two weeks. After these funds are held, the remaining funds in your account will be withdrawn in the form of a check and be mailed to you.

• Last Paycheck: If you have questions whether or not your last paycheck is sent to the jail after you are released, contact your employer/payroll.

• All checks are mailed. You or your family/friends will not be allowed to pick up your check at the jail.

The US Postal Service will determine the delivery time of your check. To ensure prompt delivery, make sure we have the correct address information including apt # and if you are staying with family/friends, you will need to provide their name. Otherwise, the postal service will not deliver your mail.
