Inmates held until trial (HUT) are those awaiting a court hearing before their sentence is finalised. They must be handled with additional care and coordination with the Department of Justice and FIB.

Confirm HUT status

On intake, verify with PD/FIB that the inmate is marked as HUT. Log this in the appropriate channel.

Assign secure cell

HUT inmates are typically placed in Medium or High Security depending on FIB/DOJ classification.

Restrict visitation

All visitations for HUT inmates must be approved by FIB/DOJ in advance. Do not allow unapproved visitors.

Remove communication devices

Phones, radios, and any communication devices must be confiscated and logged, unless FIB/DOJ specifies otherwise.

Adjust jail time as needed

HUT inmates may have their time adjusted via /jail hut when running low. Coordinate with a Sergeant+ before making changes.
