Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

I was sentenced and it states:

Jail time 6 months Contition Time - nonworking hours - 24 days credit. Forthwith. Standard release conditions.

I am in huber facility in waukesha wi. does this mean I can do community service and/or trustee work and reduce my time here?? Do I get "good time" applied to this - which would be for every 4 days, I get one day reduced. I was sentenced May 9th, and they have my discharge date as Oct. 12, and if I do get good time applied it doesn't seem to add up.

Every sentence is different but there is usually no good time on conditional jail on a probation sentence unless the judge so specifies. You might consider going back to court for a clarification on that issue if necessary.

Answering this question here does not make me your attorney, but you can reach my office in Racine (262-633-3090 or [email protected]) for clarifications or to make further arrangements.
