37-09-12. Sentence imposing confinement - Execution
Any portion of a sentence imposed by a military court that prescribes confinement must be
executed in such facility as the reviewing authority may direct. The expenses of such
confinement must be borne by the state of North Dakota. A commitment in writing must be
executed by the presiding officer of the court to the sheriff or jailer where temporary restraint is
deemed necessary, but if the confinement is the result of the confirmed action of the reviewing
authority, an official copy of the order publishing the sentence of the court must be furnished to
the sheriff or jailer.
