Description
Following a verdict of guilty of and sentence for armed robbery and a subsequent decision by this court adjudging that the
verdict was unwarranted as a conviction for armed robbery but could stand as a valid conviction for larceny, and reversing
the judgment, the defendant on resentencing as upon a conviction for larceny was entitled as of right to have a period of
imprisonment already served under the original sentence taken into account, and a resentence for the maximum term provided
by statute for larceny was invalid. Williams, J., Dissenting. Upon resentencing of the defendant in a criminal case after he had served a period of imprisonment under an invalid sentence,
he was entitled to have deducted from the maximum term which would otherwise be fixed, besides the period already served,
any time earned by him during such period for good conduct and satisfactory and diligent performance of work under G. L. (Ter.
Ed.) c. 127, § 129, as appearing in St. 1948, c. 450, § 1. [451]
