Description
Mario D. alford was involved in a fight with fellow inmate anthony Lukowski at the sarpy County jail while awaiting trial for first degree murder. alford was charged and convicted of assault by a confined person and with being a habitual criminal. In imposing alfords sentence, the court gave alford credit for the time served while simultaneously awaiting trial on both the first degree murder and the assault charges. neb. rev. stat. § 28-932(2) (reissue 2008) provides that a sentence for assault of a confined person "shall not include any credit for time spent in custody prior to sentencing unless the time in custody is solely related to the [assault charge]." Citing to this provision, as well as to alfords criminal history, the state seeks reversal of this credit for time served as giving alford an "excessively lenient" sentence under neb. rev. stat. § 29-2320 (reissue 2008). alford also timely appeals.
