What if you are charged and convicted of a crime and serve the majority of your sentence why is your time on the streets not taken into consideration and the back up time not a factor?

If you are convicted of a crime your time on the streets does not count because you were not in jail. Your term "back up time" is not a familiar one. If you mean your jail time before your conviction, you did not receive credit for that because you did not ask for that. Your jailer or Department of Corrections can not give you credit for that, only your sentencing judge. If he left it off your sentencing papers, there is a way to get it put on them. It is called post conviction relief. You will need to look into it. You will need to get a copy of your sentencing papers and see just what they say. If you did not get credit for jail time, you will need to request it.

The judge will ultimately decide whether to grant the continuance.
