Jail Time Does Not Count Toward Subsequent Offense Until Previous Sentence Expired

Defendant was released on parole for a 2001 conviction.  While on parole he committed an offense and was jailed.  The Fourth Department determined that the time defendant was in jail must first be credited to the 2001 conviction.  Only after the 2001 sentence was completely served could any jail time be credited to the subsequent (2009) conviction:

Here, “[a]ny jail time served prior to the maximum expiration date of the [2001] sentence was properly credited toward that sentence until it expired on its own terms on [July 4, 2009] … .  “Thus, the [2009] sentence was properly credited only with jail time served after the expiration of the [2001] sentence” ….  In other words, “petitioner is not entitled to jail time credit against the [2009] sentence for the jail time that was credited against the [2001] sentence”… .  Matter of Grahm v Walsh, 811, 4th Dept 7-19-13
