How often courts cite this section

citing decisions per year

Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.

Sec. 1. (a) Except as provided in section 1.5 of this chapter, after a verdict, finding, or plea of guilty, if a new trial is not granted, the court shall enter a judgment of conviction.

(b) When the court pronounces the sentence for murder or a Level 1 through Level 5 felony, the court shall advise the person of the number of days of pretrial confinement the person served while awaiting trial and sentencing on the felony charge, and whether the days of confinement were served in jail or on home detention.
