                   Before MELANSON, Chief Judge; GUTIERREZ, Judge;

                  ________________________________________________

PER CURIAM
       Robert Glen Zazweta pled guilty to possession of marijuana with intent to deliver. Idaho
Code § 37-2732(a)(1)(B). The district court sentenced Zazweta to a unified term of five years
with three years determinate and retained jurisdiction. Zazweta’s parole in an unrelated case was
revoked and Zazweta returned to prison. Zazweta’s retained jurisdiction period in this case was
served in prison. Following the period of retained jurisdiction, the district court suspended
Zazweta’s sentence and placed him on probation for a period of five years. Zazweta remained
incarcerated in the unrelated case. After release, Zazweta violated his probation in the instant
case and the district court revoked his probation and ordered the underlying sentence executed.
Zazweta filed motions, pursuant to Idaho Criminal Rule 35, for credit for time served. The

                                                1
district court granted Zazweta credit for time served while in the Bannock County Jail on this
case. However, the district court denied Zazweta credit for time served while on probation in
this case but incarcerated on the unrelated matter. Zazweta appeals contending that the district
court erred in refusing to grant credit for time served while incarcerated on the unrelated case,
but on probation in this case.
       Zazweta acknowledges that I.C. §§ 18-309(1), 18-309(2), and 19-2603 do not provide for
credit for time served under the circumstances of this case. In fact, Zazweta acknowledges that
no Idaho statute provides for an award of credit for time served while on probation, but
incarcerated on an unrelated matter. Thus, Zazweta cannot show that the district court erred by
partially denying his motion for credit for time served. The district court’s order partially
granting Zazweta’s motion for credit for time served is affirmed.
