Notes of Decisions
This section read together with ORS 137.370 (2) provides that a defendant is entitled to credit on a misdemeanor sentence for time of incarceration arising out of the same charge prior to sentence therefor. State v. Elksnis, 12 Or App 342, 504 P2d 1070 (1973)
Imposition of sentence without giving credit for 161 days time spent in jail between arrest and date of sentencing was improper as nothing in sentencing guidelines changes statutory provisions that require credit for post-arrest imprisonment. State v. Barber, 113 Or App 603, 832 P2d 51 (1992)
