CALIFORNIA SENTENCING LAW NEWS: PROBATIONER DOES NOT GET CUSTODY CREDITS ON NEW CHARGED UNTIL PROBATION IS FORMALLY REVOKED
Where a probationer is arrested and jailed for conduct that ultimately led to a revocation of probation, he/she is not entitled to pre-sentence custody credit pursuant to Penal Code section 2900.5(b) for the time spent in jail on the new criminal charges after the arrest but prior to the summary revocation of probation.
People v. Huff, 223 Cal.App.3d 1100 (1990), resolved this issue properly and continues to be good law
