True. The defendant's sentence is considered intermediate because it allows for a range of time that can be adjusted based on the defendant's behavior and compliance with counseling (30 to 60 days). It is intermittent because the defendant is serving his sentence on weekends only, allowing him to maintain his job during the week. Lastly, it is indeterminate because the actual time served within that range (30 to 60 days) depends on the defendant's progress in counseling.
A judge allows a defendant to go to jail on the weekends so that he can keep his job and support his family. The judge also wants the defendant to attend counseling so the judge sentences him to 30 to 60 days depending on how well he does at counseling.
True or False. The defendant's sentences is intermediate as well as both intermittent and indeterminate,
