or equal to that of the vacated sentence:

equal to or greater than the term or maximum term of the  new  sentence,

defendant shall not be committed to a correctional facility pursuant  to
said sentence; and
  (b)  where  the  defendant was under the supervision of a local condi-
tional release commission or the division of  parole  at  the  time  the
sentence  was vacated, then the commitment shall direct that said condi-
tional release or parole be recommenced, and the defendant shall not  be
committed  to  a correctional facility pursuant to said sentence, except
as a result of revocation of parole or of conditional release; and
  (c) where the defendant was not under the supervision of the  division
of  parole  at  the  time  the indeterminate or determinate sentence was
vacated, but would immediately be eligible for conditional release  from
the new indeterminate or determinate sentence, the court shall ascertain
from  the  department of correctional services whether the defendant has
earned a sufficient amount of good time under the vacated sentence so as
to require the conditional  release  of  the  defendant  under  the  new
sentence;  in  the event the defendant has earned a sufficient amount of
good time, the court shall stay execution of sentence until the  defend-
ant  surrenders  at a correctional facility pursuant to the direction of
the department of correctional services, which shall occur no later than
sixty days after imposition of sentence; upon said  stay  of  execution,
the  court  clerk  shall immediately mail to the commissioner of correc-
tional  services a certified copy of the commitment reflecting said stay
of execution and the name, mailing address and telephone number  of  the
defendant's  legal  representative;  in the event the defendant fails to
surrender as directed by the department of  correctional  services,  the
department  shall  notify  the  court  which shall thereafter remand the
defendant to custody pursuant to section 430.30 of this article; and
  (d) upon the resentence of a defendant as described in  this  subdivi-
sion,  the  court  clerk  shall immediately mail a certified copy of the

sentence or the new sentence is an indeterminate or determinate sentence
and  no  mailing is required by paragraph (c) of this subdivision; addi-
tionally, the court clerk shall immediately mail a certified copy of the

of the new indeterminate sentence so imposed is less than  or  equal  to
that of the vacated sentence:
  (a)  where the time served by the defendant on the vacated sentence is
equal to or greater than the term or maximum term of the  new  sentence,
the  new  sentence  shall be deemed to be served in its entirety and the
defendant shall not be committed to a correctional facility pursuant  to
said sentence; and
  (b)  where  the  defendant was under the supervision of a local condi-
tional release commission or the division of  parole  at  the  time  the
sentence  was vacated, then the commitment shall direct that said condi-
tional release or parole be recommenced, and the defendant shall not  be
committed  to  a correctional facility pursuant to said sentence, except
as a result of revocation of parole or of conditional release; and
  (c) where the defendant was not under the supervision of the  division
of  parole at the time the indeterminate sentence was vacated, but would
immediately be eligible for conditional release from the new  indetermi-
nate  sentence, the court shall ascertain from the department of correc-
tional services whether the defendant has earned a sufficient amount  of
good  time  under  the vacated sentence so as to require the conditional
release of the defendant under  the  new  sentence;  in  the  event  the
defendant  has  earned a sufficient amount of good time, the court shall

tional  facility  pursuant to the direction of the department of correc-
tional services, which shall occur no later than sixty days after  impo-
sition  of  sentence; upon said stay of execution, the court clerk shall
immediately mail to the commissioner of correctional services  a  certi-
fied  copy  of  the commitment reflecting said stay of execution and the
name, mailing address and telephone  number  of  the  defendant's  legal
representative;  in  the  event  the  defendant  fails  to  surrender as
directed by the department  of  correctional  services,  the  department
shall  notify  the  court which shall thereafter remand the defendant to
custody pursuant to section 430.30 of this article; and

sion,  the  court  clerk  shall immediately mail a certified copy of the

sentence or the new sentence is an indeterminate sentence and no mailing
is  required  by  paragraph  (c)  of this subdivision; additionally, the

ment  to  the head of the appropriate local correctional facility if the

must be to the same institution as is designated for service of the term
of imprisonment, and the period of commitment  commences  (i)  when  the
term  of  imprisonment  is  satisfied,  or (ii) with the approval of the
state board of parole, when the defendant becomes eligible  for  parole,
or  (iii)  when  the defendant becomes eligible for conditional release,
whichever occurs first; provided, however, that  the  court  may  direct
that  the  period of imprisonment for the fine run concurrently with the
term of imprisonment; and

tion that would be designated in the case of a definite sentence.
