19 VIGIL, Judge.

20   {1}    Defendant appeals his judgment and sentence following conviction of two
 1 counts of possession of a controlled substance, challenging the district court’s

 2 calculation of credit for presentence confinement. This Court’s second notice of

 3 proposed summary disposition proposed to hold that Defendant was entitled to

 4 presentence confinement credit for seventy days that were omitted from the

 5 calculation below. [2CN 3] In response, the State has filed a notice that it concurs in

 6 that proposed disposition. We, therefore, reverse the sentence entered below and

 7 remand this case to the district court for the purpose of recalculating Defendant’s

 8 presentence confinement and entering a new sentence, in accordance with NMSA

 9 1978, Section 31-20-12 (1977).

10   {2}   IT IS SO ORDERED.
