    Under the law at the time of Mingo's arrest and sentencing, he was not entitled to receive good time credit for time served prior to the imposition of the sentence. LSA-C.Cr.P. art. 880; Clement v. Jones, 466 So.2d 492, 493 (La. App. 1st Cir.), writ denied, 474 So.2d 943 (La. 1985); Foster v. Louisiana Department of Corrections, 382 So.2d 986, 987 (La.App. 1st Cir. 1980); cf., LSA-R.S. 15:571.3(B) as amended by Acts 1991, No. 138. Thus, Mingo was entitled to receive only "straight time" credit for the one year, three months and twenty-two days he served prior to his sentencing.
