7-32-2202. Use of detention center in contiguous county. (1) When there is no detention center in the county or when the detention center becomes unfit or unsafe for the confinement of inmates, the district judge may, by written appointment filed with the clerk, designate the detention center of a contiguous county for the confinement of the inmates of his county and may at any time modify or annul the appointment.
     (2) A copy of the appointment, certified by the clerk, must be served on the detention center administrator of each county involved, who must receive into his detention center all inmates authorized to be confined therein pursuant to this section and who is responsible for the safekeeping of the persons so committed in the same manner and to the same extent as if he were the detention center administrator of the county for whose use his detention center is designated. With respect to the persons so committed, he is deemed the detention center administrator of the county from which they were removed.
     (3) When a detention center is erected in the county for the use of which the designation was made or its detention center is rendered fit and safe for the confinement of inmates, the district judge of that county must, by a written revocation filed with the clerk, declare that the necessity for the designation has ceased and that it is revoked.
     (4) The clerk must immediately serve a copy of the revocation upon the detention center administrator of each county involved. The detention center administrator in the designated county must thereupon remove the inmates to the detention center from which the removal was had.
