If you are arrested in one County and another County puts a hold on you can you get credit for the time served while waiting transport?

Depends on several factors. For example, if the inmate is arrested on new charges in the county where he is being held, then he will not get credit for time served in the county where the outstanding charges are and for which he is being held. Also, if the person being held for another county is on probation or parole in that county, he will not get credit for time served while waiting to be transferred. Finally, IF the inmate has NOT been charged with new charges in the county where he was picked up and held for the other county, and he is NOT on probation and parole on the county with the hold, then it will be up to the judge who presides over his case in the county he is being held for. Once he is transferred there, that judge can either give credit or not give credit for time served in another county while waiting to be transferred. The good news is that in the vast majority of cases, the judge does give credit if the other conditions above do not apply.

Does a judge have to give credit for time served before a conviction?

Judges normally do give credit for time served before a conviction, but I wouldn't say that they HAVE to do that; the whole concept of being a judge is that they get to judge things, meaning, they get to make decisions. There are very few things that a judge has to do. They do what they see fit to do. Of course, if a judge makes a bad decision, it is possible that a higher court will reverse that decision.
