Bill Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 903A.5, unnumbered paragraph 2, Code
  1  2 Supplement 1999, is amended to read as follows:
  1  3    An inmate shall not receive credit upon the inmate's
  1  4 sentence for time spent in custody in another state resisting
  1  5 return to Iowa following an escape, or for time served.
  1  6 However, an inmate shall receive credit upon the inmate's
  1  7 sentence while incarcerated in an institution or jail of
  1  8 another jurisdiction during any period of time the person is
  1  9 receiving credit upon a sentence of that other jurisdiction.  
  1 10                           EXPLANATION 
  1 11    Existing law prohibits an inmate who is incarcerated in
  1 12 another jurisdiction from receiving credit upon the inmate's
  1 13 Iowa sentence if the inmate is also receiving credit upon the
  1 14 inmate's sentence in the other jurisdiction.
  1 15    This bill provides that an inmate incarcerated in another
  1 16 jurisdiction shall receive credit upon the inmate's Iowa
  1 17 sentence if the inmate is receiving credit upon a sentence in
  1 18 that other jurisdiction.  Generally, an inmate would receive
  1 19 one day of credit on the inmate's Iowa sentence for one day
  1 20 served in the other jurisdiction.
