Crow v. State
Indiana Court of Appeals
1DissentMathias, Judge
I respectfully dissent.
The majority acknowledges that in Robinson v. State, 789 N.E.2d 965 (Ind.Ct.App.2003), trans. granted, this court held that the determination of good time eredit is an administrative function and does not lie within the discretion of the trial courts. Although Robinson's holding has been vacated by our supreme court's grant of transfer, I maintain that its analysis is correct.
As we noted in Robinson, "it is evident that the deprivation or restoration of a person's credit time is a discretionary matter entrusted not to the courts but to the administrators of the DOC"…
