When the defendant was sentenced to 10 months in the house of correction for battery and 7 years in state prison for intimidation, he was not entitled to "good time" credit for his house of correction sentence, which should be applied to his prison sentence. The trial court was required to construe the defendant's sentences as a single sentence, which put the sentences under the purview of s. 973.01. Because the defendant was, under the terms of the statutes, an inmate of the prison system rather than the county jail, this section, the county jail "good time" statute, does not apply to his sentence.
