J. MICHAEL STOUFFER, WARDEN v. ANDRE STATON

Adkins, Sharer, Getty, James S., (Retired, Specially Assigned) JJ.

Opinion by Adkins, J.

Filed: October 3, 2003

This is another chapter in the "arcane" and evolving book of sentence aggregation disputes that have arisen since the General Assembly created two different accrual rates for good conduct credits.1 As a general rule, for non-violent and non-drug crimes
