Is the amendment to the California Civil Code of Civil Procedure Amendment retroactively retroactively applied to increase conduct credits for minor offenders who have been temporarily detained in local custody?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from The People v. Meaux, B215315, No. PA052386 (Cal. App. 2010):
temporarily detained in local custody"]; People v. Silva (2003) 114 Cal.App.4th 122, 128.) Applying the amendment retroactively would not further the statutory objective of rewarding good behavior, in that it is not possible to influence behavior after it has occurred. An increase in conduct credits is not, in our view, equivalent to a mitigation in punishment.
