Case 000650

Error and/or relief

The trial court, at resentencing, orally awarded the defendant credit for time served from his arrest to the date of resentencing, but those credits do not appear on the abstract of judgment. The abstract must be corrected.

First Holding:

[GARY Note: The court cited no authority for ordering that the abstract of judgment be corrected (probably because it is so obvious), but there is much authority that it could have cited, such as what I’ve laid out below.]

Authority:
