How has the Attorney General calculated a defendant's presentence custody credit for the duration of his sentence?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Culpepper, 24 Cal.App.4th 1134, 29 Cal.Rptr.2d 719 (Cal. App. 1994):
The Attorney General has correctly computed defendant's presentence credits. At the sentencing hearing on May 19, 1993, defendant advised the trial court he was in custody beginning on October 26, 1992. Accordingly, he had 206 days of actual custody which entitled him to 102 days of conduct credits, for a total presentence custody credit of 308 days. (People v. Browning (1991) 233 Cal.App.3d 1410, 285 Cal.Rptr. 216.)
