(1) The committing magistrate, having sentenced a defendant to confinement in a county jail for a period of up to one year, or as provided by rules adopted by the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission for felonies committed on or after November 1, 1989, may parole the defendant outside the county jail subject to condition and subject to being taken back into confinement upon the breach of such condition. When a court paroles a defendant under this subsection and the defendant is serving a sentence or sanction imposed under ORS 423.478 (2)(d) or (e), the court may order the local supervisory authority to supervise the defendant. The committing magistrate may also authorize, limit or prohibit the release of a sentenced defendant upon pass, furlough, leave, work or educational release.
(2) The committing magistrate, having sentenced a defendant to probation and having confined the defendant as a condition of that probation in a county jail for a period up to one year, or having imposed a sentence of probation with confinement in the county jail in accordance with rules adopted by the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission for felonies committed on or after November 1, 1989, may authorize, limit or prohibit the release of such person upon pass, furlough, leave, work or educational release.
(3) The sheriff of a county in which a defendant is confined in the county jail by sentence or as a condition of probation may allow the release of the defendant upon pass, furlough, leave, work or educational release unless otherwise ordered by the committing magistrate.
(4) A defendant confined in a county jail and placed upon educational release or upon work release shall, during the hours in which not so engaged or employed, be confined in the county jail unless the court by order otherwise directs or unless the sheriff otherwise directs in the absence of a contrary order by the court. The defendant’s net earnings shall be paid to the sheriff, who shall deduct therefrom and pay such sums as may be ordered by the court for the defendant’s board, restitution, fine, support of dependents and necessary personal expense. Any balance remaining shall be retained by the sheriff until the defendant’s discharge from custody, whereupon the balance shall be paid to the defendant.
