Section 266.590 - Fines and penalties: Commitment; recovery by execution; chain gang1. Any person upon whom any fine or penalty shall be imposed may, upon the order of the court before whom the conviction is had, be committed to the county jail or the city jail, or to such other place as may be provided by the city for the incarceration of offenders, until such fine or penalty shall be fully paid.2. The city council shall have power to provide by ordinance that every person committed shall be required to work for the city at such labor as the person's strength will permit, not exceeding 8 hours each working day; and for such work the person so employed shall be allowed $4 for each day's work on account of such fine. The council may provide for the formation of a chain gang for persons convicted of offenses in violation of the ordinances of the city, and for their proper employment for the benefit of the city, and to safeguard and prevent their escape while being so employed.3. Fines imposed by the municipal court may be recovered by execution against the property of the defendant, or the payment thereof enforced by imprisonment in the city jail of the city at the rate of 1 day for every $4 of such fine, or the court may, in its discretion, adjudge and enter upon the docket a supplemental order that such offender shall work on the streets or public works of the city, at the rate of $4 for each day of the sentence, which shall apply on such fine until the same shall be exhausted or otherwise satisfied.[Part 32:125:1907; RL § 798; NCL § 1133] + [33:125:1907; RL § 799; NCL § 1134] + [Part 66:125:1907; RL § 832; NCL § 1167]-(NRS A 1967, 1471)[Part 32:125:1907; RL § 798; NCL § 1133] + [33:125:1907; RL § 799; NCL § 1134] + [Part 66:125:1907; RL § 832; NCL § 1167] - (NRS A 1967, 1471)
