Description
The defendant was found guilty of armed robbery following a jury trial in the circuit court of Sangamon County. He was convicted and sentenced to a 20-year term of imprisonment. During the defendants preliminary hearing on the armed robbery offense, he had become unruly in court, was held in contempt and sentenced to serve six months in jail. The sentencing court refused to grant credit for the four-month period of jail time elapsing between February 16, 1982, the date of contempt, and June 17, 1982, when the defendant was sentenced on the armed robbery conviction. The defendant appeals both his armed robbery conviction and his sentence insofar as he was not Page 719 given credit for the four months that he was held for contempt. We affirm.
