Montana Supreme Court

State v. Powell

September 30, 20252025 MT 218

Summary

The Montana Supreme Court held that the district court improperly denied Powell credit for 883 days of street time when sentencing him after revocation. The record did not establish a restitution or fee payment schedule, a clear directive, or specific nonpayment violations connected to the disputed period, so the State failed to show a violation barring statutory credit. The court reversed and remanded for amendment of the judgment and sentence.
