P. v. Soto
In this appeal, Malia Soto (appellant) contends that a statutory amendment to Penal Code section 4019, which provides for earning presentence conduct credits at the rate of one day for every actual day served, must be applied to her, even though she committed her crimes before the operative date of the amendment. In addition, appellant contends that the lower court erred in imposing a probation revocation fine (§ 1202.44)[1] that exceeded the restitution fine (§ 1202.4, subd. (b)) the court had imposed. For reasons that follow, we agree that the probation revocation fine must be reduced, but disagree that appellant is entitled to the increased custody credits she seeks.
