Sentence on Case 1. Guy starts his time. Case 2 happens, convicted, sentence stacked on 1. Case 1 remanded for new punishment hearing only. What happens to sentence on case 2? Is the stacking order still valid, only we don't know yet just what the case 1 sentence is? Is the stacking order void? Voidable? The guy started serving his time on case 1 and has never been out of custody since. While he waits for new sentencing hearing on case 1, he files a writ on case 2 and says his credit must be recalculated to give him time as if case 1 never existed. I am having to respond. I would LIKE to say that the stacking order is still valid, because the sentence in case 1 has not yet "ceased to operate". Would you buy that argument? Got a better one for me? Melinda | ||
