included as prior time served Explanation: It's basically saying the appeal is mute and the original sentence is unchanged and the same amount of time will be served. "This Appeal is dismissed based on Article 396 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and the 80 days of imprisonment served prior to this hearing will be included as part of the original period of detention sentenced, in accordance with Article 21 of the Penal Code" |

80 days in detention (remand) shall be calculated as time served Explanation: 未決勾留日数 is "days in detention (remand)", not in imprisonment. What it says is that the 80 days in detention are considered "time served". In other words, they deduct the 80 days from the original prison term (sentence). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 hrs (2014-07-01 05:17:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- My bad. This was an appellant. If he/she had served a certain time, that time plus the period in detention count as 未決勾留日数. |

Time served in custody pending appeal shall be applied against 80 days of the jail term imposed by t Explanation: The "中" indicates that the defendant was held in custody for more than 80 days pending appeal, but he/she was awarded credit for only 80 days, not for the entire time in custody. Translating the source text literally might be awkward, especially 当審における未決勾留 part. It can be put as "time spent in custody pending appeal." 算入し in this context means to apply [credit] against the prison sentence, which is obviously the trial court decision. http://blog.la-criminal-defense.com/how-credit-for-time-serv... As someone commented, a defendant, who is innocent until proven guilty, technically does not "serve" a jail term before conviction. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 hrs (2014-07-01 08:49:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry, I was going to post my answer as follows: Time served in custody pending appeal shall be applied against 80 days of the jail term imposed by the trial court |
