What it does
(1) Existing law authorizes a court to recall a sentence of imprisonment in the state prison and to resentence a defendant in the same manner as if the defendant had not previously been sentenced, upon the court's own motion or the recommendation of the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation or the Board of Parole Hearings. Existing law prohibits the new sentence from being greater than the initial sentence and requires that credit be given for time served. Existing law provides for the resentencing or recalling of a prisoner's sentence if the court finds that the prisoner is terminally ill or the prisoner is permanently medically incapacitated, as prescribed.
