People v. Taft (Cal. Ct. App. - March 20, 2026)

Is this entire appeal about whether or not the appellant is entitled to two additional days of presentence custody credit (and thus two fewer days in prison) on his four-year sentence -- basically, as a result of a rounding error?

Yes, it is.

P.S. - He is indeed entitled to the two days. As the Attorney General concedes and Justice Stone explains in a dozen pages.
