Currently, offenders sentenced on or after August 28, 2023, receive credit toward their sentence of imprisonment for all time spent in prison, jail, or custody after the offense occurred but before commencement of their sentence, when the time in custody was related to that offense.
This bill requires the awarding of back credit to any offender in custody prior to August 28, 2023, who did not receive credit toward their sentence for the time spent in custody before the commencement of the sentence, when the time in custody was related to that offense.
This bill is similar to HB 1127 (2025).
