The STATE ex rel. HAWKINS
v.
HAAS, Judge, et al.
No. 2014–0013.
Supreme Court of Ohio.
Submitted Nov. 18, 2014.
Decided Nov. 25, 2014.
Cqualin Hawkins, pro se.
John D. Ferrero, Stark County Prosecuting Attorney, and Kathleen O. Tatarsky, Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for respondent Judge John Haas.
Michael DeWine, Attorney General, and Maura O'Neill Jaite, Senior Assistant Attorney General, for respondent Warden Margaret Bradshaw.
PER CURIAM.
{¶ 1} We dismiss relator Cqualin Hawkins's petition for writs of mandamus and habeas corpus. Hawkins asserts that the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction ("ODRC") miscalculated his jail-time credit and that it will not credit him with additional time without an order from the judge to do so. See Ohio Adm.Code 5120–2–04(H).
{¶ 2} In April 2010, Hawkins pleaded guilty to burglary, domestic violence, and assault. He was sentenced by respondent Judge John Haas in May 2010 to four years on the burglary charge, to be served concurrently with lesser sentences for the other offenses. In December 2010, he was released on community control. In March 2012, while on community control, Hawkins committed a new domestic-violence offense and was sentenced by Judge Taryn Heath to three years for that crime. In addition, because of the new crime, his community-control release was revoked and his 2010 sentence was reimposed in May 2012. Judge Haas's entry reimposing the sentence gives Hawkins jail-time credit for his time in custody both before he was released on community control and after he was arrested for the new crime. The ODRC document attached to Hawkins's complaint indicates a jail-time credit of 474 days as of May 3, 2012, for the 2010 sentence. The same document shows that Hawkins was credited with 54 days of jail time as of May 3, 2012, toward his sentence for the new offense.
{¶ 3} Hawkins filed this petition for writs of mandamus and habeas corpus in this court, asserting that the jail-time credit for the new offense should be the same as for the old offense, i.e., he should be given 420 additional days of jail-time credit toward his new three-year sentence, for a total of 474 days. We ordered a return on the writ.
{¶ 4} We dismiss Hawkins's petition for habeas corpus because it is moot. According...
