CERTIORARI TO THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS

RECKTENWALD, C.J., NAKAYAMA, AND EDDINS, JJ.; AND
WILSON, J., DISSENTING, WITH WHOM McKENNA, J., JOINS
OPINION OF THE COURT BY EDDINS, J.
I.
This case is about whether Hawaiʻi Revised Statutes (HRS)
§ 706-671 (2014) ever entitles a defendant to “double count”
concurrently-earned detention or incarceration credit against
later-imposed consecutive sentences.
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
We hold that under HRS § 706-671(1) presentence detention
time must be counted only once against the aggregate of a
defendant’s consecutive sentences. This is true even if those
consecutive sentences are spread across multiple cases.
Likewise, we hold that under HRS § 706-671(2) time served
against concurrently running probation sentences that are later
revoked and converted to consecutive terms of imprisonment must
be counted only once against the aggregate of a defendant’s
consecutive sentences in one or more cases.
We also hold that when detention or prison time is accrued
before sentencing, or pursuant to a later-revoked probationary
sentence, the double jeopardy clause’s prohibition on multiple
punishments is not violated so long as the defendant’s total
period of detention and imprisonment does not exceed the
statutory maximum term for the offenses at issue.
II.
In 2018, the State charged Jonathan Vaden with drug and
property crimes. There were five unrelated cases, including the
one at issue here, Case No. 2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX (2CPC-18-844 or this
case).
In May 2019, after spending several months in jail for all
five cases, Vaden pled no contest to all but one charge 1. The

drug in the first degree) in 2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX.
2
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
court accepted Vaden’s pleas. The parties waived a presentence
report. 2 The court sentenced Vaden to four years of probation in
each case. All terms ran concurrently. And in all five cases,
the court sentenced Vaden to terms of imprisonment as
discretionary conditions of probation. Vaden got six months
(for the misdemeanors) and twelve and eighteen months (for the
felonies).
In June 2019, Vaden petitioned for admission into the Maui
Drug Court Program. The Maui Drug Court approved the petition.
It “re-sentenced” him to new probation terms, with the
discretionary condition that he complete the drug court program.
The court ordered that all previous probation terms and
conditions that were “not inconsistent” with the new probation
terms remain as probation conditions.
A month later, in July 2019, Vaden was released from
custody. Vaden remained in the drug court program for a full
five months before he violated its rules. Vaden was detained
2 The presentence report (PSR) has “many uses in the criminal justice
process.” See State v. Carlton, 146 Hawaiʻi 16, 27, 455 P.3d 356, 367 (2019).
It affords victims, or their families, an opportunity to be heard. See HRS
§ 706-604(3) (Supp. 2016). It is used by the Hawaiʻi Paroling Authority in
determining defendants’ minimum term of imprisonment. HRS § 706-669(2)
(2014). A copy is provided to defendants’ probation officers. HRS § 806-
73(b)(3)(F) (2014 & Supp. 2017). And to mental health professionals
conducting court-ordered assessments of defendants. HRS § 806-73(b)(3)(C).
In some instances — for example where there is a recent pre-existing PSR –
waiver of the PSR may be appropriate. But these reports play an important
role in our criminal justice system and trial courts should not consent to
their waiver as a matter of course. See HRS § 706-601(3) (Supp. 2016) (“With
the consent of the court, the requirement of a pre-sentence diagnosis may be
waived by agreement of both the defendant and the prosecuting attorney.”).

again in December 2019. The circuit court terminated him from
the Maui Drug Court Program and revoked his probation.
In February 2020, the circuit court resentenced Vaden as
follows.
Case Counts New Sentences
2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX Ct. 1-11 5 years in each count
Ct. 12,13 1 year in each count
Ct. 14 30 days
2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX 5 years
2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX Ct. 1 5 years
Ct. 3 30 days
2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX 5 years
2CPC-XX-XXXXXXX Ct. 2 (PDD2) 10 years
(This case) Ct. 3,4 5 years in each count
Ct. 5 1 year
The court ordered the sentences in the first four cases to
run concurrently with each other; the aggregate term was 5 years
(the 5-year sentence). The court also ran the sentences in
2CPC-18-844 (this case) concurrently with each other; the
aggregate term was 10 years (the 10-year sentence). The court
ran Vaden’s 10-year sentence consecutively to his 5-year
sentence.
The Resentencing Order stated: “Credit given for time
served.”
The Department of Public Safety (DPS) did not give the
court the required certificates of detention detailing the days
Vaden was detained prior to sentencing and in connection with
4
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
his probation sentence. 3 But it credited him 340 days against
the 5-year sentence and one day against the 10-year sentence.
Vaden moved the court to correct the credit he received: he
wanted 340 days of credit against both the 5-year sentence and
the 10-year sentence. (DPS explained in an email to defense
counsel that it declined to credit the 340 days against the 10-
year sentence in order to avoid “double dipping”; Vaden
submitted the email to the court.) Vaden invoked HRS § 706-
671(1) and (2), as well as the double jeopardy clause.
The court denied Vaden’s motion. It relied on State v.
Tauiliili, 96 Hawaiʻi 195, 29 P.3d 914 (2001). There, the trial
court had sentenced Tauiliili to two concurrent 10-year terms
and one consecutive 5-year term within a single case; we held
that under HRS § 706-671(1), “presentence” credit should be
3 HRS § 706-671(1) requires that when a defendant has previously been
detained, the officer who has custody of the defendant furnish the court with
a certificate showing how long the defendant spent in detention before
sentencing. HRS § 706-671(2) similarly requires that when a defendant who
has been detained or imprisoned pursuant to an earlier sentence is re-
sentenced, “[t]he officer having custody of the defendant” shall furnish a
certificate to the court at sentencing showing “the period of imprisonment
served under the original sentence.” Both subsections also instruct that the
certificate be annexed to the “official records” of the defendant’s
commitment.
Here, the record contains no certificates of detention; Vaden was
resentenced by the circuit court, but the court was not furnished with any
certificates of detention by the Department of Public Safety. And there are
no certificates of detention attached to the court’s judgment. The absence
of a detention certificate is particularly problematic here because it
appears that the DPS’s informal credit calculations may have been wrong to
the extent they gave Vaden only 472 days’ credit for time served in 2CPC-18-
0000315 when it appears that he was actually imprisoned for 532 days in that
case.

*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
applied only once to the aggregate of consecutive sentences.
Id. at 197, 199, 29 P.3d at 916, 918. Citing Tauiliili, the
circuit court ruled that Vaden could not get a “double credit”
for his 340 days of imprisonment before the resentencing.
The ICA affirmed. It observed that Vaden’s claim
implicated two different credit categories: “presentence” credit
under HRS § 706-671(1) and “probation incarceration” credit
under HRS § 706-671(2). But, the ICA noted, neither Vaden nor
the State addressed this distinction. So the record was unclear
as to “what portion of the 340 days constitutes presentence days
and probation sentence days.” The distinction between
presentence detention and probation incarceration played no
further role in the ICA’s analysis; the ICA concluded that
Tauiliili was “dispositive”: Vaden could not get “double” credit
for any of the 340 days.
Now, Vaden asks this court to consider whether the ICA
gravely erred and violated his rights under HRS § 706-671 or the
double jeopardy clause by “erasing” his incarceration credit and
effectively adding 340 days to his 10-year sentence.
III.
A. Vaden’s incarceration credit implicates both HRS § 706-
671(1) and (2)
Under HRS § 706-671(1) and (2), convicted defendants are
entitled to credit for time served as follows:
6
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
(1) When a defendant who is sentenced to imprisonment has
previously been detained in any State or local correctional
or other institution following the defendant’s arrest for
the crime for which sentence is imposed, such period of
detention following the defendant’s arrest shall be
deducted from the minimum and maximum terms of such
sentence. . . .
(2) When a judgment of conviction or a sentence is
vacated and a new sentence is thereafter imposed upon the
defendant for the same crime, the period of detention and
imprisonment theretofore served shall be deducted from the
minimum and maximum terms of the new sentence. . . .
These two subsections concern distinct types of credit.
HRS § 706-671(1) controls credit for detention time between
arrest and the initial sentence.
HRS § 706-671(2), in contrast, deals with credit for time
served as part of a sentence. 4 Though HRS § 706-671(2) refers to
time served under a “vacated” sentence, our holding in State v.
Delima confirms that HRS § 706-671(2) also applies to situations
like Vaden’s where a defendant serves time pursuant to probation
that is later revoked. See 78 Hawaiʻi 343, 348, 893 P.2d 194,
199 (1995) (holding that six months imprisonment served by a
defendant as a condition of a later-revoked, probation was “time
spent imprisoned for the purposes of HRS § 706-671(2)” that must
be deducted from the new sentence imposed on resentencing).
The 340 days at issue here consist of three distinct time
4 The Model Penal Code and Commentaries’ (MPC) discussion of a parallel
section – MPC § 7.09 – also makes clear that subsection (1) applies to “time
served prior to sentencing” while subsection (2) addresses “time served under
a conviction[.]” MPC § 7.09 at 310 (emphasis added). Though MPC § 7.09 uses
the word “conviction” in subsection (2), the commentary confirms that its
principle “also extend[s] to a situation in which a court vacates a sentence
and imposes a new one without vacating the conviction.” Id.

*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
periods:
(1) time served from his initial arrest to the initial
sentencing;
(2) time served under probation; and
(3) time served between his (re)arrest in connection with
his termination from the Maui Drug Court Program and
resentencing.
Category (1) is “presentence” time under HRS § 706-671(1).
Under Delima, category (2) corresponds to “probation
incarceration” time under HRS § 706-671(2).
Regarding category (3), though it happened after the
imposition of the initial sentences, it is comparable to
“presentence” detention time since Vaden was not serving any
“sentence” during that period. Because HRS § 706-671(2) only
governs time served under vacated or revoked sentences, we treat
category (3) as “presentence” time under HRS § 706-671(1).
B. Under HRS § 706-671(1) Vaden is entitled to credit his
presentence detention time once against the aggregate of
his consecutive sentence terms
In Tauiliili, we held that under HRS § 706-671(1), “when
consecutive sentences are imposed, credit for presentence
imprisonment is properly granted against only the aggregate of
the consecutive sentence terms.” 96 Hawaiʻi at 199, 29 P.3d at
8
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
918. 5 This holding is consistent with other courts that have
interpreted laws concerning defendants’ entitlement to “credit”
for presentence detention time as allowing for credit once
against the aggregate of consecutive sentences. See, e.g,
Wilson v. State, 264 N.W.2d 234, 235 (Wis. 1978) (concluding
that “where consecutive sentences are imposed, pretrial
incarceration time should be credited as time served on only one
of such sentences”). 6
Vaden’s argument that Tauiliili is inapplicable because it
concerns consecutive sentences within a single case as opposed
to multiple cases lacks merit. Vaden cites no authority
allowing “double dipping” in the “presentence” credit context
5 In Tauiliili we noted that the commentary to HRS § 706-671 states that
the statute “provides for some equalization . . . between those defendants
who obtain pre-sentence release and those who do not.” Allowing those who
are detained prior to sentencing to get repeat credit, we said, would
undermine the legislature’s equalization rationale. 96 Hawaiʻi at 199, 29
P.3d at 918.
6 See also State v. Price, 50 P.3d 530, 535 (Mont. 2002) (holding that
Montana statute governing credit for incarceration prior to conviction
“entitles defendants to credit for presentence incarceration only once
against the aggregate of all terms imposed when multiple sentences are
imposed consecutively”); Schubert v. People, 698 P.2d 788, 795 (Colo. 1985)
(“When consecutive sentences are imposed, crediting the period of presentence
confinement against one of the sentences will assure the defendant full
credit against the total term of imprisonment.”); Cox v. State, 522 P.2d 173,
176 (Kan. 1974) (holding that defendant was not entitled to credit
presentence detention time against his state sentence where he had already
received credit for that time against federal sentence he was serving
consecutively to his state sentence); Nissel v. Pearce, 764 P.2d 224, 228
(Or. 1988) (“In light of the underlying purposes of statutes giving credit
for presentence time served and the absence of any indication that the
legislature intended (or even contemplated) duplicate credit for consecutive
sentences, we hold that the plaintiff was not entitled to receive credit on
each of his consecutive sentences.”).

where the sentences at issue run consecutively to those in
unrelated cases. 7,8
Tauiliili remains good law and is dispositive of our
analysis of Vaden’s arguments to the extent they concern
presentence credit time: under Tauiliili, Vaden is entitled to
credit his presentence HRS § 706-671(1) time once against the
aggregate of any later imposed consecutive sentences.
C. Under HRS § 706-671(2) Vaden is entitled to credit for time
served as a condition of probation once against the
aggregate of his consecutive sentences
Vaden also argues that HRS § 706-671(2) entitles him to
credit time served as a discretionary condition of probation
against each of the consecutive sentences imposed following the
revocation of that probation. We disagree for three reasons.
First, nothing in the plain text of HRS § 706-671(2)
suggests that the legislature intended that time earned under
HRS § 706-671(2) should be credited against multiple consecutive
sentences. The statute’s use of the singular “sentence”
reflects the fact that the word may refer not only to a
7 At least one state court of appeals has held that such “double dipping”
is not allowed. See Ransone v. State, 20 So.3d 445, 447, 449 (Fla. Dist. Ct.
App. 2009) (refusing to double credit presentence jail time against
consecutive sentences in two separate cases when the defendant was held in
custody for both).
8 Vaden correctly argued that transferring credit to an unrelated case is
prohibited. See State v. March, 94 Hawaiʻi 250, 255, 11 P.3d 1094, 1099
(2000) (holding that a sentence that credits Defendant with the time served
for an unrelated offense is illegal). But no such transfer happened here.
The 340 days were simultaneously accrued in all five cases.
10
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
particular term of incarceration imposed for a conviction on a
single criminal count, but also to the sum of the terms of
incarceration and other penalties imposed on a defendant for
their crimes. Multiple consecutive sentences are really just
one sentence. The order of resentencing in Vaden’s case
describes the ten terms of incarceration (imposed for ten
different counts across five different cases) as a single
“sentence” imposed “with this order.” Cf. State v. Percy, 612
A.2d 1119, 1127 (Vt. 1992) (“When all is said and done, a number
of consecutive sentences becomes one sentence, and it is against
this sentence, as ‘imposed,’ that pretrial detention is
credited.”).
Second, though Tauiliili does not control our analysis, its
implicit interpretation of the word “sentence” in HRS § 706-
671(1) is persuasive. Tauiliili treats HRS § 706-671(1)’s
“sentence” as referring to the aggregate of consecutive
sentences imposed in connection with the defendant’s crimes, not
a particular term of imprisonment imposed in connection with a
specific crime. It makes sense to use the same definition of
“sentence” in HRS § 706-671(2). Adopting a more atomistic
approach and reading “the new sentence” in HRS § 706-671(2) as
referring to each consecutive term of incarceration imposed
following the revocation or vacatur of probation would
effectively require holding that the word “sentence” as used in
11
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
HRS § 706-671(2) has a different meaning from that of the same
word in HRS § 706-671(1).
Third, reading HRS § 706-671(2) as requiring that probation
incarceration time be applied against each consecutive sentence
imposed after the revocation of probation would lead to unfair
and arbitrary results. The defendant who served a year of
probation incarceration time and then, following probation
revocation, was sentenced to two consecutive five-year terms
would, in total, spend a year less in prison than a defendant
who served the same year as a condition of probation but was
sentenced to a single ten-year term. Cf. Tauiliili, 96 Hawaiʻi
at 199, 29 P.3d at 918 (explaining that allowing repeat credit
for presentence detention time against consecutive sentences
would “defeat the legislative purpose underlying consecutive
sentencing” since if multiple credit were allowed, “the more
consecutive sentences a criminal defendant received, the more
credit [they] would accrue for presentence imprisonment”).
Further, this reading of HRS § 706-671(2) would curb
courts’ ability to impose consecutive sentences. For instance,
if a defendant commits five misdemeanors in five separate cases
and serves one year before sentencing, they would receive five
years of credit if the court imposes consecutive statutory
maximum terms (one year for each misdemeanor). In that
situation, the defendant would ultimately serve no additional
12
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
jail time, and the court’s decision to impose consecutive
sentences would be pointless. Id. Indeed, any consecutive
sentence would be meaningless.
For these reasons, we hold that HRS § 706-671(2) entitles
Vaden to incarceration credit earned pursuant to a later-revoked
probationary sentence once against the aggregate of his later-
imposed consecutive sentences. As in the HRS § 706-671(1)
context, this holding applies irrespective of whether the
sentences are in one case or spread across multiple cases.
D. The double jeopardy clause does not require that Vaden be
awarded incarceration credit against each of his
consecutive sentences
Along with his statutory arguments, Vaden advances a
constitutional claim: he says the court’s refusal to deduct 340
days from his 10-year consec sentence violates his double
jeopardy rights. We disagree.
The constitutional guarantee against double jeopardy 9
“protects against multiple punishments for the same offense.”
North Carolina v. Pearce, 395 U.S. 711, 717 (1969). This
guarantee “absolutely requires that punishment already exacted
must be fully ‘credited’ in imposing sentence upon a new
conviction for the same offense.” Id. at 718-19 (emphases
9 See U.S. Const. amend. V (guaranteeing that a person “subject for the
same offence” shall not be “twice put in jeopardy of life or limb”); Haw.
Const. art I, § 10 (same except that article I, section 10 omits “life or
limb”).
13
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
added) (footnote omitted).
If Vaden’s incarceration time was earned pursuant to a
probationary sentence that was later vacated, a trial court’s
refusal to credit that time against a sentence imposed in
connection with a “new conviction for the same offense” would
implicate Vaden’s double jeopardy clause rights. 10 But that’s
not what happened here. Vaden’s 340 days were served either
before sentencing 11 or pursuant to a sentence of probation that
was later revoked, not vacated. 12 So his double jeopardy rights
would only come into play if his total punishment in this case
10 See State v. Thompson, No. SCWC-XX-XXXXXXX, 2020 WL 2846618, *3 (Haw.
June 1, 2020) (SDO) (acknowledging that applying time served on vacated
sentences only once against the aggregate of new consecutive sentences for
the same crimes “would raise very serious double jeopardy issues” and result
in “unconstitutional ‘multiple punishments’ for the same offense.” (Citation
omitted)).
11 Several courts have held that the denial of prison credit for
presentence detention time generally does not raise constitutional issues
unless it operates to extend the defendant’s total incarceration beyond the
statutory maximum term. See, e.g., Faye v. Gray, 541 F.2d 665, 667 (7th Cir.
1976); State v. Warde, 570 P.2d 766, 768–69 (Ariz. 1977) (“[A] number of
state and federal appellate courts . . . have held that a defendant, as a
matter of equal protection, must be credited with presentence jail time when
such time, if added to the maximum sentence imposed, will exceed the maximum
statutory sentence.” (Emphasis added.)).
12 “[T]he imposition of confinement when an offender violates his term
of probation has never been considered to raise a serious double jeopardy
problem.” Ralston v. Robinson, 454 U.S. 201, 220 n.14 (1981). This is
because the revocation of a defendant’s probation and the imposition of a new
sentence is a modification of the defendant’s original sentence, not a
“second” or “multiple” punishment for double jeopardy purposes. So, as the
Supreme Court explained in Ralston, there is no “double jeopardy” problem
when the offender “by his own actions, trigger[s] the condition that permits
appropriate modification of the terms of confinement.” Id. Cf. United
States v. DiFrancesco, 449 U.S. 117, 137 (1980) (stating that the double
jeopardy clause “does not provide the defendant with the right to know at any
specific moment in time what the exact limit of his punishment will turn out
to be” and observing that “there is no double jeopardy protection against
revocation of probation and the imposition of imprisonment”).
14
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
exceeded the maximum statutory penalty for the crimes at issue. 13
Cf. Jones v. Thomas, 491 U.S. 376, 381 (1989) (“[I]n the
multiple punishments context, [the interest that the double
jeopardy clause seeks to protect] is ‘limited to ensuring that
the total punishment did not exceed that authorized by the
legislature.’”). The sum of Vaden’s 10-year sentence and the
340 days of presentence and probation incarceration 14 at issue in
this case is just shy of 11 years, far below the 21 years of
incarceration Vaden could have received in this case if the
court ran his terms of imprisonment consecutively. 15
Since Vaden’s punishment in this case does not exceed the
13 In Faye, the Seventh Circuit explained that in the context of
presentence incarceration, unconstitutional “double punishment” happens only
“when the [uncredited] pre-sentence time together with the sentence imposed
is greater than the statutory maximum penalty for the offense.” 541 F.2d at
667. It stands to reason that the double jeopardy clause would also prohibit
a court from imposing terms of imprisonment following the revocation of
probation that, if combined with time already served pursuant to the
probation, would exceed the maximum statutory total punishment for the crimes
at issue in the case.
14 The record is unclear as to how many of the 340 days were accrued
before sentencing and how many were accrued in connection with Vaden’s
probation sentence.
15 The Faye court viewed “the statutory maximum penalty” as the maximum
consecutive terms a court can impose for the offenses at issue. 541 F.2d at
666-67. There, the court sentenced the defendant to two concurrent seven-
year terms for two counts of rape; the statutory maximum for each was 30
years. Id. at 666. Because the presentence time plus the two concurrent
sentences was less than “the maximum punishment of 60 years which he could
have received [if the trial court ran the two 30-year terms consecutively],”
the court concluded that uncredited presentence time did not violate the
guarantee against double jeopardy. Id. at 667. Here, the maximum
consecutive terms the court could have imposed for the offenses at issue is
21 years: ten years for Count 2, five years each for Counts 3 and 4, and one
year for Count 5.
15
*** FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST’S HAWAIʻI REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER ***
statutory maximum total punishment for the crimes at issue, and
since his probation incarceration credit was not accrued under a
vacated sentence, the trial court did not violate Vaden’s double
jeopardy clause rights by declining to credit the 340 days
against Vaden’s 10-year sentence.
IV.
As described above, we affirm the ICA’s Judgment on Appeal.
We remand this case to the circuit court so that the court may:
(1) order the Department of Public Safety to furnish the court
with certificates of detention that comply with HRS § 706-671(1)
and (2); and (2) file an amended judgment that affixes those
certificates of detention.
