THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent, G064322

v. (Super. Ct. No. FVI123002066)

WILLIAM WESLEY PHILLIPS, OPINION

Defendant and Appellant.

Appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Bernardino County, John M. Wilkerson, Judge. Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions. Heather E. Shallenberger, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. Rob Bonta, Attorney General, Lance E. Winters, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Charles C. Ragland, Assistant Attorney General, Christopher Beesley and Daniel Rogers, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.

Phillips contends the court gave him too few credits and the sentencing abstract does not accurately reflect his fines. The Attorney General agrees with both contentions, and so do we. We therefore reverse the court’s credits award and remand for a recalculation of presentence credits and the preparation of a new abstract of judgment. In all other respects, we affirm. PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND After a jury convicted Phillips of resisting an executive officer and vandalism, the trial court found he had suffered a prior strike conviction and sentenced him to four years in prison. (Pen. Code, §§ 69, 594, subd. (b)(2)(A), 667, subds. (b)–(i), 1170.12.)1 The court also awarded Phillips 174 days of actual custody credit, plus 26 days of conduct credit, for a total of 200 days of presentence credit. In addition, the court ordered Phillips to pay a $220 restitution fine and a $220 parole revocation fine. DISCUSSION I. CREDITS In addition to receiving presentence credit for all actual days of custody, defendants are generally entitled to two days of conduct credit for every two days they serve. (§ 4019, subds. (b), (c), (f); People v. Whitaker (2015) 238 Cal.App.4th 1354, 1358.) When a defendant is convicted of a violent felony, however, section 2933.1 limits the award of presentence
