This bill amends section 47-502 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, which pertains to sentence reductions for good behavior in jails. The new provisions state that any person sentenced to or confined in a city or county jail, including those serving custodial sanctions for parole or probation violations, will have their remaining term reduced by one day for each day of good behavior after the fifteenth day of confinement. The bill specifies that this reduction applies to the aggregate of the person's remaining term, including all consecutive sentences received during the confinement period.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that the reduction applies regardless of whether the consecutive sentences were received simultaneously or at different times during the confinement. The original section 47-502 is repealed to incorporate these changes. Overall, the bill aims to provide clearer guidelines for sentence reductions based on good behavior in jail settings.
