itations is a defense to the criminal prosecution, so you must have an active criminal prosecution against you to raise it.
- Q. Prison sentence 2yrs half time,with 10months credit,5 actual month in will you have 2months left to do or 7 months left,
- A: When calculating credits you want to subtract actual time in custody from the total sentence imposed, then apply the half-time credits to determine the out date. So, roughly two years is 730 days, minus the 150 (5mo in), or 580, which would be 290 at half-time, or about 9 months
