White-Hughley v. State
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court vacated Appellant's judgment of conviction, holding that Appellant was entitled to have seventy days' credit for time served applied to his sentence in his second case.
Appellant pleaded guilty in two criminal cases and was sentenced on different dates by different judges, with each sentence imposed to run concurrently. The first sentencing judge applied credit for Appellant's time served to the sentence in the first case, but the second sentencing judge declined to apply credit for time served to the sentence in the second case. The Supreme Court vacated the judgment of conviction, holding (1) where a defendant simultaneously serves time in presentence confinement for multiple cases and the resulting sentences are imposed concurrently, credit for time served must be applied to each corresponding sentence; and (2) Appellant was entitled to credit for time served applied to the sentence in his second criminal case.
