| Court: | Wisconsin Supreme Court |
| Facts: | Securities fraud. It was a complex case, and Magnuson spent a lot of time on release with an ankle bracelet to prepare his defense. He asks for credit for this time against his sentence. |
| Posture: | Convicted at trial, sentence credit granted on appeal. |
| Issue: | What counts as time that would get sentencing credit? |
| Holding: | Denied. |
| Rule: | Time counts if you'd get charged with escape. |
| Reasoning: | Bright-line rule is the best approach. There was no escape charge here. |
