    Topic: Post-conviction relief - Credit for time served - Section 47-7-34(2) - Section 47-7-37

    Summary of the Facts: Following a revocation hearing in which Teresa Schwend admitted that she violated the terms and conditions of her post-release supervision, the court revoked Schwend’s PRS and gave her thirty-two days of jail credit. Schwend subsequently filed a motion for post-conviction relief, which was dismissed. Schwend appeals.

    Summary of Opinion Analysis: Schwend argues that she should be given credit for time served on PRS from her release from incarceration on September 21, 2004, to the revocation of her PRS on November 6, 2006. Pursuant to sections 47-7-34(2) and 47-7-37, time spent on PRS may not be credited toward a sentence that results from the revocation of PRS.
