It is not UP to you. You have NO SAY in his sentencing. It's up to the judge.

Obviously, if he's in jail, the judge felt that he belonged there, and not on an ankle monitor in his home, or in a halfway house, or on work release.

If his sentence is long, you will either have to enjoy visiting day every week or so, or think about moving on to a new relationship.

You might want to take this time to evaluate your future with this fellow. It's the perfect time to do so, since you're apart.

Is this the right relationship for you? Is this what you dreamed of in a partner as a young girl? Is this the best you can do?

There's nothing you can do yourself. It's up to the courts.

He has to ask the judge for it at a court hearing. Usually if he is already in jail, he will not be able to get house arrest. If he had a job and the offense was minor, he could request work release through his lawyer. However, anything serious and he'll just have to sit there and do his time. Sorry.


True
he would have to get a hearing in front of a judge and request it if he's eligible.

House arrest, also known as electronic monitoring or home detention, is the legal term used to define a penalty imposed by law to a person who committed a crime and is condemned to stay inside his house. Home arrest is an alternative to jail time, often used for minor crimes or for teenagers who cannot be taken to an adult correctional facility. House arrest is also an option in places where the cost of maintaining a prisoner has escalated to a point where the government cannot longer sustain additional inmates. In any case, only minor offenses can be punished with house arrest, as major crimes always require jail time.

People confined to house arrest wear an ankle monitor, a special electronic device that transmits a GPS signal to a base handset. This handset is connected to police central headquarters, and notifies the authorities automatically if the wearer moves outside of his allowed range. House arrest may or may not include backyards or gardens, depending on the arrangements made by the authorities. House arrest may also allow for "breaks," where prisoners are allowed to attend certain activities or places, such as regular visits to the doctor or to a local grocery store. In those cases, the ankle monitor is disconnected temporarily or reprogrammed so it allows the wearer to move a certain distance without breaking the rules.

It matters what his crime is. If it's something where he is not a threat to the community, and he's not a flight risk, he may very well be able to get some type of work release. Have him check with his attorney.

It might be helpful if you go to the court and ask some questions there because the clerk could at least give you the best advice. Your boyfriend could also ask his lawyer for advice about this.
