Relating to: custody of the county jail and its inmates (first consideration).

SJR 113 proposes a constitutional amendment to clarify that county sheriffs hold sole custody of county jails and inmates, unless a county board of supervisors delegates that responsibility to another public official or agency. The bill directly affects sheriffs, county boards, and any entities designated by the board to manage jail operations. It creates a new constitutional provision (Article VI, Section 4(3)(c)) explicitly stating the sheriff's default authority while allowing counties to transfer custody through formal delegation. This is a procedural constitutional amendment, not a substantive law, and does not change current sheriff duties but formalizes delegation options.
