Mower (Glenn) v. State ( 2014 )


Menu:
  •                 credit for time served in the instant case, we disagree. NRS 176.055(1)
    does not apply because Mower's confinement was not "pursuant to a
    judgment of conviction for another offense."
    There is no indication in the record before us that federal
    authorities placed a hold on Mower after his arrest leading to the instant
    conviction. Further, the State does not challenge the following assertion
    made by Mower on appeal:
    From the date of arrest through the date of
    sentencing, the federal government did not issue
    any writs to obtain custody of appellant.
    Additionally, there has not been any
    correspondence or any information indicating that
    the federal government is seeking custody of
    appellant; except for . . . a written statement made
    by the Presentence Investigation [report] writer
    that the federal government would seek parole
    revocation after the Nevada case is completed.
    It appears that Mower was taken into custody and confined solely due to
    the instant offense and is entitled to credit for the time served prior to his
    sentencing. See State v. Dist. Ct. (Jackson), 
    121 Nev. 413
    , 416, 
    116 P.3d 834
    , 836 (2005) ("[D]espite its discretionary language, the purpose of NRS
    176.055 is to 'ensure that all time served is credited towards a defendant's
    ultimate sentence." (quoting Kuykendall v. State,      
    112 Nev. 1285
    , 1287,
    
    926 P.2d 781
    , 783 (1996))). Therefore, this matter must be remanded to

    the district court for the awarding of 141 days' credit for time served and
    the amending of Mower's judgment of conviction. Accordingly, we

    proceedings consistent with this order. 1 2

    1 The fast track statement submitted by Mower does not comply with
    the Nevada Rules of Appellate Procedure because the procedural history
    and statement of facts do not contain any citations to the record.   See
    NRAP 3C(e)(1)(C) and NRAP 28(e)(1). Counsel for Mower is cautioned
    that the failure to comply with the briefing requirements in the future
    may result in the imposition of sanctions. See NRAP 3C(n).
    2 This
    order constitutes our final disposition of this appeal. Any
    subsequent appeal shall be docketed as a new matter.
