Sec. 58.

(1) A sentence of confinement issued by a court-martial may be carried into execution by confinement in a place allowed by section 10 as designated by the convening authority. A person confined is subject to the same discipline and treatment as a person imprisoned by a civil court of the state.

(2) The omission of the words, "hard labor", from a sentence of a court-martial adjudging confinement does not deprive the authority executing that sentence of the power to require hard labor as a part of the punishment.

(3) The keeper or officer in charge of a county jail shall receive a person ordered into confinement before trial by the convening authority and a person sentenced to confinement by a military court and shall confine the persons according to law. A keeper or officer in charge shall not require payment of a fee or compensation for receiving or confining the prisoner.

(4) If a sentence of confinement is imposed, the convening authority shall issue a writ in the following or similar form:

Michigan.

(7) The proceeds of all fines in summary, special, and general courts-martial cases shall be paid to the general fund of this state. The costs of prosecution shall be paid out of the funds appropriated to the office of the adjutant general.
