Description
Petitioner-Respondent Xavier Lightfoot is currently serving two consecutive five-year sentences in a Missouri prison for second degree burglary and stealing. He filed a Petition in Mandamus in the circuit court seeking credit on the first of these Missouri sentences for time served in jail and prison in Kansas following the filing of a detainer against him in Kansas related to the Missouri charges, but prior to his conviction on those charges. Following review of the record the circuit Judge issued a permanent writ of mandamus to the Director of the Missouri Department of Corrections and/or the Superintendent of the Western Missouri Correctional Center (hereinafter collectively referred to as ""the State""). He ordered the State to give Mr. Lightfoot credit for each day served from the time of the detainer until his transfer to Missouri. While the circuit court did not make findings of fact and Conclusions of law, the parties assume the court found that under Section 558.031.1(1) (as in effect from 1990 until amended in 1995), Mr. Lightfoot was entitled to credit on his first Missouri sentence for time served following the filing of the detainer and while he was in jail in Wyandotte County, Kansas on an unrelated but bailable offense, and that under Section 558.031.1(2) he was entitled to credit on that sentence once he was convicted of the Kansas offense but prior to his transfer to Missouri for trial on the Missouri charges.
