In Florida, an individual pre-trial or post-trial can be sentenced to a period of time of house arrest or electronic monitoring. House arrest is just like it says. You are under arrest in your own home. Certain times courts will allow an individual who is on house arrest to leave their house and to go to work, or to leave their house and go meet with their attorney, or to leave their house and go perform community service. That individual is generally being electronically monitored by GPS to determine where they’re at all times. If an individual has gone away from that home at a time that’s not previously approved, a signal is sent by the GPS unit alerting law enforcement and that individual can and generally will be immediately arrested for a violation.
