JM: What is the most time off you can receive for good behavior?
Julie: NO for sure
Inmate's Sister: wouldn't know
Houston: I dont think that is allowed
Claire: Well, they do give the 2 days credit for each day served, if that's considered time off.
Jim: As a normal general population inmate you get two for one, if you are a floorworker (trusty) you get three for one. This only applies to jail time or time sentenced in county not the prison system.
DK: none
Smyth: Have no idea since it didn't apply to me.. only if your sentence is to stay long term at Harris County Jail do you get any time off. Don't know.

Jim: In county any "case" you get will follow you to TDCJ and go on record. All you have to do is obey their rules ad avoid hanging wit the groups who cause trouble.
DK: none
Smyth: Have no idea.. went to state jail.. you could pound someones face in every day and leave on the same day.
