The key to success is the credit for jail time given in the adult presentence report. Please send me a copy of the presentence report. There is a specific section that refers to jail credit time. The judge utilizes this presentence report, and specifically, the jail credit section to give jail credit to the defendant. This is the starting point. This is a complex area of the law.
