Appellant,

v.

NEW JERSEY STATE PAROLE BOARD,

Respondent.

_________________________________

 

Submitted July 6, 2010 - Decided

Before Judges Stern and Wefing.

On appeal from a Final Agency Decision

of the New Jersey State Parole Board.

Nathaniel Dixon, appellant pro se.

Paula T. Dow, Attorney General, attorney

for respondent (Melissa H. Raksa, Assistant

Attorney General, of counsel; Ellen M. Hale,

Deputy Attorney General, on the brief).

PER CURIAM

Nathaniel Dixon is an inmate in the custody of the Department of Corrections. He appeals from a determination of the New Jersey State Parole Board setting his parole eligibility date at October 22, 2020. We affirm.

Defendant argues that the Parole Board did not properly credit him with 5164 days of jail credits, awarded to him pursuant to an amended judgment of conviction entered by the trial court on October 27, 1997. Defendant's argument disregards the fact that the 1997 amended judgment of conviction was itself subsequently amended on December 6, 2000. The 2000 judgment of conviction awards defendant only 3304 days of jail credit. It is this figure which must be used in calculating defendant's parole eligibility date.

Defendant's argument to the contrary lacks merit. R. 2:11-3(e)(1)(D).

Affirmed.
