| Abstract: |
As an alernative to incarceration or supervised parole/probation, and following the burgeoning home detention philsophy, the penalty device would provide a humane, relatively inexpensive, court directed, rehabilitative/monitoring measure for non-violent criminal offenders. The device would consist of a rigid sleeve of heavy gauge plastic or metal which is locked in place around a criminal offender's forearm by a locking mechanism. The penalty device would be a court ordered stipulation or unsupervised parole or probation. The device would not only constitute appropriate requital for many offenses, but would additionally serve to identify certain offenders to law enforcement personnel and the public in general.

| Claim |
What is claimed is:
1. A penalty device, an alternative to judicially directed incarceration or supervised parole/probation designed to temporarily identify criminal offenders, comprising a rigid, heavy gauge plastic or metal sheath or sleeve which is slipped over and past the hand and wrist, loosely fitted around the forearm, the sleeve of such length as to not restrict fundamental motion of the elbow, and prevented from removal by a clam shell type, flexible bracelet or locking band which is closely fitted around the wrist and locked in place using a tamper resistant seal designed to dissuade unauthorized or undetected removal of the locking band and sleeve, the sleeve and seal are linked by a short, permanently affixed cable or chain which prevents the sleeve from being slipped up the arm or down and over the locking band while the band is fastened in place.
