Article 15 - SENTENCES
§ 33-13-357 - Execution of confinement

(1) A sentence of confinement adjudged by a military court, whether or not the sentence includes discharge or dismissal, and whether or not the discharge or dismissal has been executed, may be carried into execution by confinement in any place of confinement under the control of any of the state military forces or in any jail, penitentiary, or prison or other institution, under the control of this state or any political subdivision thereof and designated by the Adjutant General. Persons so confined in a jail, penitentiary, prison or other institution are subject to the same discipline and treatment as persons confined or committed to the jail, penitentiary, prison or other institutions by the courts of the state or of any political subdivision thereof.

(2) The omission of the words "hard labor" from any sentence or punishment of a court-martial adjudging confinement does not deprive the authority executing that sentence or punishment of the power to require hard labor as a part of the punishment.

(3) The keepers, officers, and wardens of any jails, penitentiaries, prisons, or other institutions, under the control of this state or any political subdivision thereof, shall receive persons ordered into confinement before trial and persons committed to confinement by a military court and shall confine them according to law.
