Massachusetts Appeals Court March 20, 1990, No. 88-P-912 (Royce)

Fine, J.

The issue on appeal is whether Louis F. Royce, a State prisoner, is entitled to credit towards service of a 1971 State prison sentence from which he escaped in 1973, or whether he must serve the time owed on that sentence upon the expiration of State prison sentences imposed for unrelated crimes in 1982.
