Opinion SULLIVAN, J.

The defendant, Lanny Steed Scott, was convicted on all charges in a five-count indictment charging kidnapping, G.L. c. 265, § 26 (Count 1); assault by means of a dangerous weapon, G.L. c. 265, § 15B(b ) (Count 2); assault and battery, G.L. c. 265, § 13A (Count 3); assault and battery causing serious bodily injury, G.L. c. 265, § 13A(b )(i) (Count 4); and malicious destruction of property, G.L. c. 266, § 127 (Count 5). On appeal, the Supreme Judicial Court determined there was insufficient evidence to support the conviction on Count 4, assault and battery causing serious bodily injury, and ordered that judgment enter for the defendant on that count. The case was remanded for resentencing on the remaining counts of the indictment. See Commonwealth v. Scott, 464 Mass. 355, 364, 982 N.E.2d 1166 (2013).

At resentencing, the judge (who was not the trial judge) retained the original sentences on Counts 1, 3, and 5. On Count 2, for which the defendant had already completed his original sentence of from two to five years in State prison concurrent with Count 1 (see Appendix), the judge imposed a five-year term of probation from and after the committed sentence in Count 1. The defendant maintains that this aspect of the resentencing violated principles of double jeopardy and due process. See Commonwealth v. Cumming, 466 Mass. 467, 995 N.E.2d 1094 (2013) (Cumming ). Compare Commonwealth v. Leggett, 82 Mass.App.Ct. 730, 978 N.E.2d 563 (2012) (Leggett ). We vacate the sentences, and remand for resentencing.

Background. The defendant was originally sentenced on December 20, 2007, to a period of from eight to ten years in State prison on Count 1, the kidnapping conviction, and to a period of two to five years in State prison on Count 4, the since-vacated conviction, to run on and after the sentence on Count 1. He was sentenced to concurrent terms of incarceration of up to five years on the remaining counts of the indictment. See Appendix. Resentencing occurred over five years later, on April 30, 2013. By this time the concurrent terms of incarceration had been fully served, including the original sentence of from two to five years in State prison on Count 2, assault by means of a dangerous weapon. See Appendix.

The judge reimposed the eight to ten year sentence on Count 1, the kidnapping conviction. Relying on Leggett, supra, he resentenced the defendant to a five-year term of probation on Count 2, to run on and after the sentence on Count 1. The original aggregate sentence of a maximum fifteen years' incarceration was converted to an aggregate sentence of up to ten years' incarceration and five years' probation. This was accomplished, however, by vacating the original sentence (which had already been served) on Count 2, and adding a new probationary term on and after the original sentence on Count 1. Double jeopardy. The double jeopardy clause, which protects a defendant against “multiple punishments for the same offense, ...

‘ represents a constitutional policy of finality for the defendant's benefit’ in criminal proceedings.” Commonwealth v. Goodwin, 458 Mass. 11, 19, 933 N.E.2d 925 (2010), quoting from Aldoupolis v. Commonwealth, 386 Mass. 260, 271–272, 274, 435 N.E.2d 330, cert. denied, 459 U.S. 864, 103 S.Ct. 142, 74 L.Ed.2d 120 (1982). “In this Commonwealth, the subject of double jeopardy generally has been treated as a matter of common law rather than as a question under the Constitution of the Commonwealth.” Commonwealth v. Goodwin, supra at 20, 933 N.E.2d 925, quoting from Aldoupolis v. Commonwealth, supra at 271 n. 14, 435 N.E.2d 330.

The defendant asserts that it was impermissible to resentence him to an additional term of probation on Count 2, because he had already served the two to five year sentence in full at the time of resentencing. The Commonwealth contends that the defendant had no expectation of finality in his sentence until all of the aggregate sentence had been served, and that so long as the aggregate sentence on resentencing does not exceed the original aggregate sentence, there is no infirmity.

Leggett held that a defendant “does not have a reasonable expectation of finality in any one part or element of [an interdependent] bundle of sentences, but rather, in the entirety of the scheme.” Cumming, 466 Mass. at 471, 995 N.E.2d 1094, quoting from Leggett, 82 Mass.App.Ct. at 736–737, 978 N.E.2d 563. In Leggett, the defendant challenged the entire bundle of sentences on the ground of improper comments made by the judge during sentencing. After a successful appeal from the denial of his motion for resentencing, Leggett's original aggregate sentence of from nineteen to twenty years was vacated, and he was resentenced to a term of from sixteen years to sixteen years and one day and five years of postrelease probation. 82 Mass.App.Ct. at 732–733, 978 N.E.2d 563. Leggett contended that the new probationary terms were illegal because they were imposed with respect to sentences already fully served. Id. at 733–734, 978 N.E.2d 563. In a divided opinion, we held that the “vacation of a sentencing scheme creates a clean slate for resentencing,” and rejected the notion that “a reasonable expectation of finality vests in a fully served component sentence of a scheme of multiple sentences.” Id. at 736, 739, 978 N.E.2d 563.

A trio of cases decided since Leggett calls into question the breadth of its holding. In Cumming, the Supreme Judicial Court, citing Leggett, held that a defendant who files a motion to correct

the illegal component of an interdependent sentence “knowingly expose[s] himself to the possibility that his entire sentencing scheme might be restructured.” Cumming, 466 Mass. at 471, 995 N.E.2d 1094. The court limited that restructuring, however, to (1) component sentences that were still outstanding at the time of resentencing, and (2) a sentencing scheme that did not exceed the maximum aggregate sentence of the lawful sentence originally imposed. Id. at 472–474, 995 N.E.2d 1094, citing Shabazz v. Commonwealth, 387 Mass. 291, 296, 439 N.E.2d 760 (1982). As the court later reiterated in Commonwealth v. Cole, 468 Mass. 294, 311, 10 N.E.3d 1081 (2014) (Cole ), in holding that resentencing was barred where the probationary sentence had been served in full, resentencing “[can]not increase the ‘aggregate punishment’ imposed under the original sentence because of the defendant's right to be free from double jeopardy.” Id. at 310, 10 N.E.3d 1081, quoting from Cumming, supra at 468, 995 N.E.2d 1094.

Commonwealth v. Parrillo, 468 Mass. 318, 14 N.E.3d 919 (2014) ( Parrillo ), decided the same day as Cole, again stated that “to accord with double jeopardy principles, resentencing must not result in any increase in the aggregate punishment and must be ‘quantitatively fair.’ ” Id. at 321, 14 N.E.3d 919, quoting from Leggett, 82 Mass.App.Ct. at 737, 978 N.E.2d 563. Parrillo also expressly stated that which was implicit in Cumming. That is, where a component sentence in an interdependent sentencing scheme has been served, the defendant may not be resentenced in a manner that increases his or her punishment on the component sentence.

“The judge may not resentence the defendant on the two convictions for which the defendant has already served his sentence, because any such resentencing would result in an increase in punishment in violation of double jeopardy principles. See Cumming, 466 Mass. at 473–474 . The judge in his sound discretion may resentence on the [conviction for which the defendant is currently on probation under a suspended sentence], provided the new sentence satisfies the double jeopardy principles set forth in Cumming, supra. ”

Parrillo, 468 Mass. at 321, 14 N.E.3d 919.

Both parties to this appeal have proceeded on the basis that it is governed, at least in part, by Cumming. In this case, the sole

issue before the Supreme Judicial Court in the defendant's first appeal was the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the conviction on Count 2, assault and battery causing serious bodily injury, and the sole relief sought was the entry of judgment for the defendant on that count. See Commonwealth v. Scott, 464 Mass. at 360, 982 N.E.2d 1166, citing Commonwealth v. Latimore, 378 Mass. 671, 677, 393 N.E.2d 370 (1979) ; id. at 356, 364, 393 N.E.2d 370. No challenge was made to the other convictions or component sentences, and the “lawful components of the defendant's sentences were in one sense final” for purposes of double jeopardy. Cumming, 466 Mass. at 472, 995 N.E.2d 1094. Here, by arguing successfully that there was insufficient evidence to support one of his convictions, the defendant eliminated one component of a sentencing scheme, and thereby exposed himself (at most) to the risk inherent in resentencing in light of the interdependent nature of the original sentences imposed. Compare Cumming, Cole , and Parrillo, supra (defendants did not challenge their convictions, but succeeded in eliminating one component of a sentencing scheme). That risk is delimited by our common law of double jeopardy, which requires that the restructured scheme be “quantitatively fair.” Cumming, supra at 472, 995 N.E.2d 1094. The defendant had a legitimate expectation of finality in his sentence once served. See Parrillo, 468 Mass. at 321, 14 N.E.3d 919. Cf.

Commonwealth v. Selavka, 469 Mass. 502, 503, 514 (2014) (Commonwealth's effort to correct illegal sentence barred by double jeopardy where defendant had a reasonable expectation of finality in a partially served illegal sentence).

This case is therefore controlled in all material respects by the reasoning of Parrillo. Having served his entire original sentence on Count 2, the defendant could not be resentenced on that conviction. The Commonwealth's argument that a term of probation does not constitute an additional punishment, see Leggett, 82 Mass.App.Ct. at 739, 978 N.E.2d 563, is foreclosed by Cumming, which holds that the prospect of incarceration for a violation of probation constitutes punishment for purposes of double jeopardy. 466 Mass. at 473–474, 995 N.E.2d 1094, citing Commonwealth v. Goodwin, 458 Mass. at 18, 933 N.E.2d 925.

Conclusion. The defendant may not be resentenced on Counts 2, 3, or 5, for which he has already served his sentences. If the defendant has not yet completed his sentence on Count 1, the judge, in his sound discretion, may resentence the defendant on that count, provided the new sentence satisfies the double jeopardy principles set forth in Cumming, Cole , and Parrillo. The defendant's sentences are vacated, and the case is remanded for resentencing consistent with this opinion.

So ordered.
