State v. Tweedy

Defendant, Albert Tweedy, pled guilty to unlawfully escaping from legal custody. He was sentenced to a term of 1 year in the Nebraska Penal and Correctional Complex. This sentence runs consecutively to another sentence imposed by the same court on the same day for auto theft.

The issues raised by the defendant are: (1) Excessiveness of the sentence by making it consecutive rather than concurrent; and (2) failure to allow him full credit for time spent in custody previous to sentencing. We affirm.

This is a companion case to State v. Melvin Tweedy (40421), ante p. 246, 242 N. W. 2d 626.…
