People v. Seymore

Defendant violated the terms of his pretrial release, and the trial court granted the State’s motion to sanction the defendant to 30 days in the county jail without good-time credit. Defendant filed a SCR 604(h)(2) motion for relief, which the trial court denied, and plaintiff appealed, arguing that he was entitled to 15 days of credit under the County Jail Good Behavior Allowance Act. The appellate court reversed and vacated the order to the extent that it denied good-time credit, explaining that the legislature did not create an exception of good-time credit for pretrial release sanctions. (HUTCHINSON and SCHOSTOK, concurring)
