Description

DIMOND, Justice. OPINION Appellant was convicted of two escapes from custody or confinement under a statute which makes it
a punishable offense for one to escape from * * * a jail or institution in which he is * * * confined by direction of a court
in this state * * * . 1 The scene of the escape was the state jail at Fairbanks, where appellant had been an inmate by reason of a prior conviction
of burglary. On this appeal appellant contends that since the judgment and commitment for the burglary conviction did not
designate the Fairbanks jail as the place of confinement where appellant was to serve his three year sentence of imprisonment,
he was not confined in that particular jail "by direction of a court", within the meaning of the escape statute. From this
appellant argues that his conviction cannot stand because the state has failed to prove an essential element of the crime
of escape, viz. - that the jail where he was confined and from which he escaped was a jail specifically designated by a court
following his burglary conviction.
