workers, would be a mistake. <br />He felt that by changing this <br />program, we would lose the incentive aspect and urged the Board <br />not to tamper with this successful program and to allow gain time <br />for prisoners in the Weekend Work Program. <br />Commissioner Scurlock made a Motion to adopt the proposed <br />resolution amending the Gain Time Resolution. The Motion died <br />for lack of a second. <br />Attorney Brandenburg explained that this was put on the <br />Agenda today at the request of the judges who feel that there is <br />sufficient incentive for people to show up and do their time only <br />on the weekends.

They are not fed nor confined <br />there, but simply report to the Detention Center for <br />work assignments. They go home each evening. <br />Defendants afforded this program should serve such time <br />as ordered. They should not have the same benefits <br />afforded confined prisioners within the Detention <br />Center itself. <br />Sincerely yours, <br />L. B. Vocelle <br />Circuit Judge <br />La � <br />.
