Ex Parte Roger Canada

Summary

The Court held that Texas statutes denying flat time credit for periods of confinement between the issuance of a parole‑revocation warrant and a subsequent revocation hearing violate the Fourteenth Amendment and the Texas Constitution, and therefore the applicant is entitled to credit for the 74‑day confinement preceding the first parole continuation; the second period of confinement was already credited and no relief was granted.
