County jail

Explanation:

In most cases, trespass is a misdemeanor.

This means it can lead to penalties of up to six (6) months in county jail and/or a fine of up to one thousand dollars.

Like jail sentences, trespassing fines are dependent on state law and the circumstances of the crime, and laws allow courts to impose a range of fines.

For example, a conviction for trespassing may result in a fine of as little as $25 or as much as $1,000.

The term "county jail" is used for jails maintained to hold prisoners in each of the many county divisions. People may be moved into a county jail immediately after they are arrested, or may later be transferred to a county jail from a local holding cell or detention center.
