The bill amends section 47-502 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, which pertains to sentence reductions for good behavior in jails. It establishes that individuals 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 new legal language specifies that the reduction applies to the "aggregate" of the remaining term, including the sum of all consecutive sentences received, whether imposed simultaneously or at different times during the confinement. Additionally, the bill repeals the original section 47-502, thereby updating the law to reflect these changes.
