[2009] EWCA Crim 1379

A sentence of nine months' imprisonment imposed pursuant to the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 s.116 for committing an offence before the expiry of the full term of an earlier sentence was unlawful and was quashed as the judge had not taken account of the days that the offender had spent in custody as a result of his licence being revoked.
