House Arrest

Program Details

The house arrest program provides the Fairfield Municipal Court with another alternative for sentencing. Under this program, defendants are closely monitored electronically to ensure they remain at home at the times required by the court.

High-tech ankle bracelets are electronically connected to a monitoring device that notified the Fairfield Municipal Court by telephone when an offender is out of range or if the connector is cut.

The system allows offenders to continue working in order to pay fines and restitution.
