This day-for- day deduction may not be withdrawn. Prior to the day-for-day deduction being given, the sentence must first be reduced by any deduction for time detained to which the individual is entitled pursuant to section 2305. [PL 2019, c. 113, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).] 2. Start of consecutive sentence. A consecutive sentence may not begin until the sentence involving imprisonment that the consecutive sentence immediately follows in time has been fully served. [PL 2019, c. 113, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).] 3. Application of deduction for concurrent sentences. While an individual is in execution of concurrent sentences pursuant to subsection 1, a day-for-day deduction must be accorded on all the sentences simultaneously. [PL 2019, c. 113, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).] 4. Application of deduction for consecutive sentences.
