Opinion

This appeal concerns entitlement to behavior and participation credits (conduct credits) for time spent as a California Rehabilitation Center (CRC) inpatient. Involved are Riverside Superior Court case numbers 14425 and 14719 which were consolidated in 1977 when defendant was committed to CRC.

In August 1981, pursuant to In re Morales (1981) 115 Cal.App.3d 456 [ 171 Cal.Rptr. 425 ], defendant filed a motion to fix a determinate term. Her commitment to CRC was terminated and she was committed to state prison. Custody credits were given in each case for jail time and related conduct credits together with credits for CRC inpatient time. CRC inpatient conduct credits were not given.

On appeal defendant contends that in each case she was entitled to conduct credits for her time spent as a CRC inpatient.

Defendant is entitled to earned CRC inpatient conduct credits against her state prison sentence. (People v. Mobley (1983) 139 Cal.App.3d 320 , 323-324 [ 188 Cal.Rptr. 583 ]; People v.
