v.
BRANDON DASHAWN HARDMAN,
Defendant and Appellant.
B239252
(Los Angeles County
Super. Ct. No. BA390499)
APPEAL from a judgment of

County, Craig Richman, Judge.
Affirmed as modified, remanded with directions.
California Appellate
Project, Jonathan B. Steiner and Ann Krausz, under appointment by the Court of
Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.
Kamala D. Harris, Attorney
General, Dane R. Gillette, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Lance E. Winters,
Assistant Attorney General, Chung L. Mar and Victoria B. Wilson, Deputy
Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.
Appellant Brandon Dashawn Hardman was
charged and convicted of one count of attempted
second degree robbery (Pen. Code, §§ 664/211), arising out of an incident
occurring on October 28, 2011.href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title="">[1] The court suspended the imposition of
sentence and placed appellant on probation for a period of three years. One condition of probation was that appellant
serve 25 days in county jail. The court
gave appellant credit for 25 days of custody, consisting of 22 days of actual
custody and an additional 3 days of work time/good time credit (15 percent of
22).
Appellant
contends that the court miscalculated presentence href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">custody credits. First, he contends the court erroneously
concluded that he had been in custody 22 days, when in fact, he was entitled to
24 days of actual custody credit.href="#_ftn2"
name="_ftnref2" title="">[2] Second, he contends the court wrongly
concluded that he was entitled to no more than 15 percent good time/work time
credit based on the mistaken belief that the crime of attempted robbery fit the
definition of a violent felony for purposes of section 2933.1.href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3" title="">[3] Third, appellant contends that because his
crime occurred after October 1, 2011, he was entitled to day-for-day work
time/good time credit based on every day spent in county jail, under recent
amendments to section 4019.href="#_ftn4"
name="_ftnref4" title="">[4]
Respondent
does not dispute any of appellant’s contentions.href="#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5" title="">[5] We have reviewed the record and the
applicable authorities and found no defect in appellant’s analysis. Moreover, appellant complied with section
1237.1, which states that no appeal shall be taken on the ground of an error in
the calculation of presentence custody credits unless the defendant first
presents the claim in the trial court.
On July 11, 2012, appellant sought resolution of the
custody credit issue in the trial court, and was denied relief. Accordingly, we agree that the judgment must
be modified to reflect the correct amount of presentence custody credit.
>DISPOSITION
The judgment
is modified to reflect 48 days of presentence custody credit, consisting of 24
days of actual credit and 24 days of good time/work time credit. In all other respects the judgment is
affirmed. The superior court is directed
to prepare an amended abstract of judgment to reflect this modification and to
forward a copy to the Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation.

Because the only issue on appeal
relates to presentence custody credits, we do not summarize the facts of the
offense. Undesignated statutory

There is no dispute that
appellant was taken into custody on October 28, 2011, released on his own
recognizance on November 16, 2011, remanded into custody on February 6, 2012
(the day of the guilty verdict), and sentenced on February 9, 2012. Therefore, he was entitled to 20 days of
credit for the period between October 28 and November 16, and 4 days of credit
for the period between February 6 and 9.
