Power to Governor to confine Prisoner with a Class different from his own.
|
XIV. It shall be lawful for the Governor of any County Prison, if he shall at any Time deem it improper or inexpedient to allow any Prisoner to associate with the other Prisoners of the Class to which he or she may belong, to confine such Prisoner with any other Class or Description of Prisoner, or in any other Part of the Prison, until he shall receive the Directions of the Board of Superintendence in respect to such Prisoner, and in every Case in which he shall so confine or separate any Prisoner, he shall apply with as little Delay as possible to the Board of Superintendence for Directions in respect of such Prisoner, and the said Board shall in every such Instance ascertain whether the Reasons assigned by the Governor warrant such a Deviation from the established Rules, and shall give such Orders as they shall, under the Circumstances of the particular Case, think proper, in reference to the future Custody of the said Prisoner.
