STATE v. KEDDY
Decision of the Court

M O R S E, Judge:

¶1 Petitioner Scott David Keddy petitions this court for review
from the denial of his request for relief by the superior court. We have
considered the petition for review and, for the reasons stated, grant review
and deny relief.

¶2 Keddy originally pled guilty to two counts of attempted
molestation of a child, class 3 felonies and dangerous crimes against
children. He was sentenced to lifetime probation on both counts. After
multiple probation revocation proceedings, he was eventually revoked on
one count, sentenced to 5 years' imprisonment, and given 857 days of pre-
sentence incarceration credit. He was reinstated to lifetime probation on
the remaining count, to commence upon release from prison.

¶3 In 2017, after his release from prison, Keddy once again faced
a petition to revoke his probation on the remaining count. Keddy entered
an admission to violating his probation, the superior court ordered his
probation revoked, and he was sentenced to 9 years' imprisonment, with
credit for 111 days of pre-sentence incarceration.

¶4 Keddy filed a Motion for Sentence Correction Presentence
Incarceration Credit Issue, claiming he was entitled to an additional 855
days, or a total of 966 days of pre-sentence incarceration credit.1 The
superior court denied the motion, finding that the amount of credit he
received at his sentencing was correct.2

¶5 Keddy reiterates his claim in his petition for review, but now
claims he was entitled to a total of 783 days of credit, or 672 additional days
of credit.3

1 Keddy's motion incorrectly added his own figures.

2 Keddy did not request relief under Rule 32, and the superior court
did not construe his motion as a Rule 32 request for relief. However, since
Keddy's motion under Rule 24.3 would have been untimely, while a request
under Rule 32 would have been timely, and the superior court analyzed the
merits of his claim, we construe this as a proceeding under Rule 32.

3 We note that none of the cases cited by Keddy in his petition for
review support his position. State v. DePiano, 187 Ariz. 27 (1996) has been

STATE v. KEDDY
Decision of the Court

¶6 The applicable pre-sentence report reflects that after he was
released from prison, Keddy was incarcerated on the remaining count for
81 days prior to his revocation and sentence. The superior court gave him
an additional 30 days credit for its directive requiring him to serve 30 days
jail on this count in a prior reinstatement.

¶7 Keddy already received credit for the additional days he
claims on the count for which he was originally revoked and ordered to
prison. Since he is not being sentenced to a concurrent prison term, his
claim has no merit, and the court correctly credited him with only 111 days.
See State v. Chavez, 172 Ariz. 102, 104 (App. 1992) (holding that pre-sentence
incarceration prior to placement on probation only applied to one of
consecutive terms of prison); see also State v. Witt, 19 Ariz. App. 440, 441
(1973)
(holding that crediting pre-sentence incarceration on a revocation of
probation for time served prior to revocation not mandated); State v.
McClure, 189 Ariz. 55, 57 (App. 1997)
("When consecutive sentences are
imposed, a defendant is not entitled to presentence incarceration credit on
more than one of those sentences, even if the defendant was in custody
pursuant to all of the underlying charges prior to trial.").

¶8 We grant review and deny relief.

overruled. See State v. Davis, 206 Ariz. 377 (2003). Keddy did not present
the constitutional issues discussed in DePiano and Davis to the superior
court, and we decline to consider them. See State v. Wagstaff, 161 Ariz. 66,
71 (App. 1988)
. Keddy also cites to State v. Snider, 172 Ariz. 163 (App. 1992)
and State v. Salinas, 23 Ariz. App. 232 (1975), but neither case involved
consecutive sentences.
