Error and/or relief
On resentencing, the court must recalculate the credit for time served. The matter is remanded for the court to do so here. (The matter was complicated by the trial court awarding credit against this case for by credit earned in a separate case, making it difficult to determine how much the court credited in this particular case.)
Holding:
When a trial court resentences a defendant who is currently in custody, it must credit him with all actual days he spent in custody (whether in jail or prison) up to that time, including his time in custody after the original sentencing.
Authority:
